Quantum tunneling: a classical interpretation

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” there are many theoretical advantages to defining our universe in terms of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. One is that it would allow one understand quantum tunneling or how particles can tunnel or move through potential barriers … Read more

Why four spatial dimensions?

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” there would be several theoretical advantages to defining the universe in term of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time. For example, it would enable physicists to define a theoretical model that could explain and predict the uncertainty … Read more

The Casimir effect

We have shown throughout this blog and its companion book “The Reality of the Fourth *Spatial* Dimension” that observations of our environment indicate that the universe is composed of four *spatial* dimensions instead of four-dimensional space-time and a vacuum contains a measurable quantity of continuous non-quantized field of mass/energy. One of these observations is called the … Read more

Debunking the simultaneous wave particle assumption of quantum mechanics

Quantum mechanics derives the results of particle in terms of a probabilistic interaction of its wave and particle components by assuming they must exist in all possible states simultaneously before a measurement it taken. This contradicts the assumptions of classical physics that objects cannot exist in simultaneously  in two different states at the same time. … Read more

Resolving the Quantum Paradox

One of the more paradoxical aspects of the quantum theory is the concept of superposition which refers to its assumption that a particle occupies all of its possible quantum states simultaneously before it is observed.  In other words its says the “reality” of a particles state or position only occurs after it is observed. This … Read more
