The relevance of classical mechanics to a quantum environment.

Presently there is disconnect between our understanding of the probabilistic world of quantum mechanics and the classical one of causality because it can predict with precision the future position of an object while the other cannot. However this may just be an illusion resulting from a lack of understanding of the quantum environment. One of … Read more

The physical meaning of Schrödinger wave equation

Quantum mechanics defines our observable environment only in terms of the probabilistic values associated with Schrödinger’s wave equation. However it is extremely difficult to define a set of statements which explains how those probabilities are physically connected to it even though it has held up to rigorous and thorough experimental testing. This may be the … Read more

Deriving mass without the Higgs Boson

Einstein told us that energy and mass are interchangeable however he did not define what mass is.  He only told us how mass interacts with space-time. As Steven Weinberg said “Mass tells space-time how to curve while space-time tells mass how to move”. However Einstein’s inability to define or derive the casualty of mass is … Read more

Dark Matter and its affect on Hubble’s law

Would the existence of Dark Matter affect Hubble’s laws and our understanding of evolution of the universe? In the article “What is Dark Matter?” Sept 10, 2007 it was shown that assuming space is composed of a continuous field of energy/mass would give an explanation for the gravitational component of Dark Matter that is consistent … Read more

Quantum entanglement: A Classical non-locality

Quantum entanglement is the name that describes the way that particles can share information and interact with each other regardless of how far apart they are. For example an electron in certain atoms will spontaneously decay after being excited by emitting pairs of polarized photons such that one is aligned horizontally the other vertically.  According … Read more
