Quantum Physics

Cities in Flight by James Blish A strangely well-written book for being such hard science fiction. This book described badly: the entire city of New York realizes its ultimate destiny as an intergalactic tech nomad hipster douche constantly sermonizing about quantum woo. In the end, universe gets remade in the image of a good old boy from Brooklyn. Major hilarious downside: I think I have discovered the origin of "As you know, Bob..." That infamous science fiction exposition technique. The amount of Bobs having things explained to them in this book is unreal. (It's only two Bobs, but that's two too many. Am I right?) Read for a laugh.

Why are they so sought out by physicists? — In the last decades, the scientific community has been looking for something hypothesized by Paul Dirac, something we’re not even sure truly exists. Grand Unified Theories predict their existence, Symmetry is threatened by it, and the Standard Model does not need or predict them at all. I’m talking about magnetic…

The Art of Being Right: Schopenhauer’s Anticipation of Quantum Mechanics and the Interconnectivity of Reality. Introduction: Feline Affiliations. In his What is Life?: With Mind and Matter and Autobiographical Sketches (2012), the Nobel Prize-winning Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodinger stated that 1918, when he assumed a post as lecturer in theoretical…

Embracing the Quantum Circus Buckle up, folks, because we’re about to dive into the mind-bending world of quantum physics. Prepare yourself for a wild ride where probabilities reign supreme and our notions of free will hang in the balance. Get ready to question everything you thought you knew about determinism…

Every now and then, we stumble upon wisdom that perfectly articulates the lessons we’ve learned through personal experience. That’s precisely how I felt when I discovered a podcast episode that carries echoes of my own journey and is perfect for those seeking to initiate or advance personal growth. That episode…

“I don’t like it, and I’m sorry to ever had anything to do with it” was the statement spoken by the famous physicist Erwin Schrodinger once he realized that his quantum wave equation was based on probabilities. After the world was absorbing the flood of changes ushered in by Einstein’s…

Einstein said, “Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.” This is everything?! But it’s not just quantum physics, it’s anything to do involving atoms and how they “vibrate” or osscillate. The frequency emitted by you, the person/people you interact with all modulate the frequency within you and around you. Be mindful and listen with your ❣️

There is a very deep relationship between quantum entanglement and entropy. Entropy, despite being an emergent property, is much more fundamental than it first appears. In order to understand why a law can be both emergent and fundamental, one must pinpoint the origin of thermodynamic entropy. And, as is often…

Immerse yourself in the intriguing world of quantum mechanics, where the double-slit experiment reigns as a flagship of mind-bending phenomena at the universe’s most fundamental level. This renowned experiment provides a profound insight into light’s dual nature and the observer effect. …
