This may be the reasons some define it only in the abstract saying that is an invention of the human consciousness that gives us a sense of … Read more

The causality of quantum probabilities or why God must play dice.

Is it possible to define the “reality” behind the quantum world of probabilities in terms of the physical concepts of causality in the space-time environment defined by Einstein?  Quantum theory defines the existence of particles in terms of a mathematically generated probability function created by Schrödinger’s wave equation and assumes that particles do not exist … Read more

What is the connection between imagination and reality?  This question is particularly relevant to scientists because they are tasked with defining theoretical models to describe the reality our world. The problem exists because by definition reality is independent of the mind and any abstract mechanism it can create concerning it.  Therefore only way we can … 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
