  • Particles at two places at the same time-superposition. Particles communicating instantly with no respect to distance-entanglement. How to make sense of such weirdness? Quantum mechanics is how the world works at deepest levels. But nobody has any idea why.

      Temperature isn't an observable in the usual sense, which is why it can't be quantized. It's a macroscopic property that is emergent, and, furthermore, it's an artificial definition. Many physicists consider temperature to be the tendency for a system to give up heat. In that sense, it is more similar to an electric potential, which doesn't make sense to quantize either. In fact, I would consider temperature to have a similar role as a scalar potential. There are plenty of scalar fields that can be quantized. A vibrating string is one example, but temperature is more vaguely defined.
      I don't think there is much in there beyond mere coincidence.

    The only reason there is no algorithm that can predict the future is because we lack the memory space to model such a high number of possibilities. If they ever perfect a quantum computing architecture - or even something simpler like a 50-million core CPU - then I think there are a number of algorithms that would suffice in accurately modeling future outcomes, to such a degree it would ruin cybersecurity as we know it.

  • @jeffthompson1869

    As I understand it - the "quantum" part is the way the calculations are made - with distinct locations on a line or graph. The observer phenomenon creates a particle structure from the quantum world - but without measurement or observation - all that is left is probability in wave forms. If everything is made from probability waves - at what point does lets say a table become corporeal in the world we understand? Is a table just one giant conglomerate of probability waves? It is like the spirit of something exists on one level - and the body of something exists at the larger level.

    I find these two observations stemming from Quantum as the most fundamental:
    1) The universe is countable (or natural), not real, and possibly finite because of the existence of a minimum quantum;
    2) Reality is not grounded until observed, so observation **is** the event, not just a spectating of an event that otherwise exists.

    Freeman is spot on. There is no need to unite GR and QM into a unified theory. QM is operating in the other arrow of time and will never look like Classical physics. I also think that aside from wave/particle duality there are many other dualities which define physics. Therefore I don't think any unified theory is possible.

      It certainly is true many or most mathematical theoreticians don't actually care about the underlying physics..

      If you do not believe Gravity has a basis in Mass that has a basis in Matter-Energy Quanta you are not a proper Quantum Physicist, you are wilfully ignorant and believe wilful ignorance is the 'way forward'...

    It might perhaps be easier to understand the classical and the quantum if we view them as the two sides of a proverbial coin. Additionally, I might add to the E=MCsquered equation an equality I for Information. Thus, E=I Energy is a form of information. Consciousness for example might be explored as yet another field of spacetime energy density for understanding and exploring information processing in biological sciences.

      But the point that Dyson is presenting here is that such theory of everything may not exist at all. This is really intriguing. Most people believe in an assumption that the quantum world and large scale (with gravitation) world are part of a consistent model in which laws of both these worlds come from one set of equations (of course not in the sense Feymann was joking about in his famous textbook, sum_{n \in all equations} (law_n)^2 = 0). Freeman Dyson says that maybe our world have two non-reducible parts, something like nonconnected topological space etc.

    Classical physics can also predict the future because laws of nature, be they in ODE form (Newton) or PDE form (Einstein) predict as well as retrodict. This is trivially true. So, the question is whether the laws of non-classical physics (QM) also predict as well as retrodict. Unfortunately, Dyson is no longer with us to answer that question. And, as a corollary, whether those two sets of predictions (classical and non) are mutually exclusive or incompatible in some sense. Maybe someone else can jump in on this.

    What one asks in the quantum world is apparently very different from those questions in classical mechanics .In the first , one asks about bound states and scattering states in a similar way which is done in wave physics (wave guides for bound states ) .In Newtonian mechanics , one ,in principle , is always involved with initial value problems for motions ,even if scattering problems exists in Newtonian mechanics with a complete different mathematical behavior of usual mechanical problems .By the way , scattering theory in Newtonian Mechanics for FULL rigid bodies still remains non existent in the literature !. Related to Einstein Theory of "gravitation" , it can be STRAIGHTFORWARDLY quantized (gravitons) as it is done for the electromagnetic field ( now with photons) !.But its infinite problems when computing quantum scattering amplitudes MAY be just a very hard mathematical problem OR FOR SURE , THE WHOLE EINSTEIN THEORY IS INCONSISTENT AS A GRAVITATION THEORY , as you could see for exactly soluble models for metric fields in two dimensions ("Quantum Liouville two dimensional field theory- AM Polyakov ). Another point :if one introduces a cosmological constant in the Einstein equation (even if vanishing small) , ONE NEVER OBTAINS THE NEWTON POTENTIAL from Einstein Theory (Schwarchild metric in the presence of a cosmological constant ) !

    I forgot to mention that AI was also mysterious but in a different sense from the quantum; namely, it is difficult for people to accept that an artificial intelligence can be as intelligent or even more intelligent than a person. It's kind of like how we don't really understand consciousness all that well so we have a hard time believing something could not only possess self-awareness but perhaps be more aware (or at least qualitatively different) than us.
    The quantum is mysterious for two reasons: First, as I understand it, scientists are still not sure how to precisely define the quantum. As a result of this vagueness, there has been no agreement on what would be required to prove that something is or isn't "quantum" in nature. For example, if you take a large enough number of identical coins and flip each one (say 1 trillion times), then you will get roughly equal numbers of heads and tails. This ratio never changes significantly even though you are flipping trillions upon trillions of coins because mathematical statistics dictates that when tossing these kinds of numbers around there should be an equal number of heads vs. tails every time regardless how many times the coin is flipped; however, even after 10^10^18 flips it seems like there must be some kind of bias towards either head or tail being more likely than others.
    As a result of this statistical bias, scientists have been trying to determine if large numbers can be said to be "quantum" or not. However, I think that since there is no precise definition for what constitutes quantum vs. non-quantum then we are left with something akin to saying "I'll know it when I see it." So far we haven't seen anything that would convince us entirely and so the mystery remains as to what exactly makes the quantum so mysterious (or whether such things exist at all).
    This brings me to the second reason why the quantum is mysterious. Since we don't know what makes something "quantum" (or even if anything exists that is truly quantum) then it seems like a mystery as to how we would ever be able to prove that an object or phenomenon was not quantum in nature. As I understand it, there are many scientists who claim that phenomena such as consciousness and gravity are in fact due entirely to the effects of the quantium, but since neither can be exactly defined they must remain so mysterious for now.

      What about if you flip three coins billions of times, but two must be exactly the same and one different. If same coins would fall on one side more often than on other, than it's because the way head and tail was minted. But if all three would produce same random pattern of heads and tails, than randomness is completely geometrical phenomena, slight differences in shape and weight of objects doesn't influence anything.

    String Theory was not a waste of time. Geometry is the key to Math and Physics.
    What if we describe subatomic particles as spatial curvature, instead of trying to describe General Relativity as being mediated by particles?
    Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: "A theory that you can't explain to a bartender is probably no damn good." Ernest Rutherford
    The following is meant to be a generalized framework for an extension of Kaluza-Klein Theory. Does it agree with the “Twistor Theory” of Roger Penrose? During the early history of mankind, the twisting of fibers was used to produce thread, and this thread was used to produce fabrics. The twist of the thread is locked up within these fabrics. Is matter made up of twisted 3D-4D structures which store spatial curvature that we describe as “particles"? Are the twist cycles the "quanta" of Quantum Mechanics?
    When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. ( E=hf, More spatial curvature as the frequency increases = more Energy ). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are a part of the quarks. Quarks cannot exist without gluons, and vice-versa. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" are logically based on this concept. The Dirac “belt trick” also reveals the concept of twist in the ½ spin of subatomic particles. If each twist cycle is proportional to h, we have identified the source of Quantum Mechanics as a consequence twist cycle geometry.
    Modern physicists say the Strong Force is mediated by a constant exchange of Mesons. The diagrams produced by some modern physicists actually represent the Strong Force like a spring connecting the two quarks. Asymptotic Freedom acts like real springs. Their drawing is actually more correct than their theory and matches perfectly to what I am saying in this model. You cannot separate the Gluons from the Quarks because they are a part of the same thing. The Quarks are the places where the Gluons are entangled with each other.
    Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons?
    Does an electron travel through space like a threaded nut traveling down a threaded rod, with each twist cycle proportional to Planck’s Constant? Does it wind up on one end, while unwinding on the other end? Is this related to the Higgs field? Does this help explain the strange ½ spin of many subatomic particles? Does the 720 degree rotation of a 1/2 spin particle require at least one extra dimension?
    Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons
    . Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron. The phenomenon of Supercoiling involving twist and writhe cycles may reveal how overtwisted quarks can produce these new particles. The conversion of twists into writhes, and vice-versa, is an interesting process.
    Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves.
    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Within this model a black hole could represent a quantum of gravity, because it is one cycle of spatial gravitational curvature. Therefore, instead of a graviton being a subatomic particle it could be considered to be a black hole. The overall gravitational attraction would be caused by a very tiny curvature imbalance within atoms. We know there is an unequal distribution of electrical charge within each atom because the positive charge is concentrated within the nucleus, even though the overall electrical charge of the atom is balanced by equal positive and negative charge.
    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    In this model Alpha equals the compactification ratio within the twistor cone, which is approximately, 1/137
    1= Hypertubule diameter at 4D interface
    137= Cone’s larger end diameter at 3D interface where the photons are absorbed or emitted.
    The 4D twisted Hypertubule gets longer or shorter as twisting or untwisting occurs. (720 degrees per twist cycle.)

    How many neutrinos are left over from the Big Bang? They have a small mass, but they could be very large in number. Could this help explain Dark Matter?

    We can draw a parallel between light and magnetism (Maxwell was right): wave is a form of energy that transfers between particles; when you call it a particle you are observing the results of the wave.
    Quantum theory:
    The universe is fractal, therefore the same rules that apply to a solar system must apply to an atom (except at higher speeds), otherwise the universe would collapse in disarray and conflict. Empirical observations of the micro universe are as good as the equipment utilized to collect them. If one observes a particle (planet) around the nucleus (sun) with a shutter speed equal to one revolution, it would register at one position only; 1/2 cycle would result in two opposite positions (dead cat, live cat). At higher speeds more positions are collected and the vibration (wave) function starts to reveal itself.
    Gravity:
    Sorry Newton, the group of scientist and engineers that believe that the electrical theory can partially explain gravity and geological events has been in exponential ascension; search for thunderbolts Electric Universe (I'd rather use the term "Electrical" to accept the limitations of our current knowledge).

    Gravity is nothing like temperature because we can't shield against it's influence. We know gravity must be coming from center of large mass, but it's still there no matter what we place between grounds and object. Temperature has a flow that can be tampered with, we can manipulate energy, but not property of space time. Small and very large objects are not the same somehow. Strange thing is universe started as something infinitely large that turned into dust. But gravity was already present somehow, forcing atoms to merge into large structures, causing appearance of volume and geometry of objects. Or not, perhaps singularity was broken into large chunks and stars exist from a very beginning. Than we could speculate gravity is sort of a singularity field, like entire universe is still a single object and nothing can exist outside of everything that emerged from a beginning of time.

      Those virtual and neutral gravity spaces are definitely a big quantum mystery, how can objects balance their inertial potential with a constant free fall like that, something is acting on all, particles from all directions, at same time.
      And dream spaces are even more interesting, how can brain simulate space time nothingness and inertia so great, but can do anything weird with light, for example, or it can but it's converted into emotional atmosphere somehow. Point is, if our brain can do it, so can we, since particles inside our head are same as particles our body and everything rest is made of. They obey mind, so they must obey mechanical laws also, it's just the matter of how.

    The "problem" with Freeman Dyson is that he's too well-adjusted for manic science. At the risk of insulting higher levels of thought and speculation, those who "need" to reconcile relativity and quantum theory remind me of the guys at my morning cafe, who argue about whether LeBron James is as great a basketball player as Michael Jordan. They NEED to decide, instead of just enjoying the games. Maybe it's a human trait, not at all exclusive to science.
