bhobba reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Why does QM split into two evolution types? with Like.
It's not. It's a matter of "that's how we make accurate predictions". That's how any physical theory works: you figure out what...

bhobba reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Why does QM split into two evolution types? with Like.
No, that's not what "no collapse" interpretations (like the MWI) say. They say unitary evolution just continues, all the time. Yes, part...

bhobba reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Why does QM split into two evolution types? with Like.
Um, because that's how the theory works? And doing it that way makes correct predictions? Um, the latter? Since that "mathematical...

I think the answer to this depends on which QM interpretation you adopt. Your step 3 (which is usually called "collapse" or "state...

Um, yes, you are: This is challenging the established theory--just with nothing to back the challenge up but vague generalities...

bhobba reacted to FactChecker's post in the thread Graduate Rotating Disk Method to Attain Light Speed? with Like.
Particles have been accelerated to near the speed of light, so it is known how much energy and force is needed. The results agree with...

bhobba reacted to Ibix's post in the thread Graduate Rotating Disk Method to Attain Light Speed? with Like.
As Peter has pointed out, in this thread all you can do is apply the theory. You can call this "doing a thought experiment" if you like...

No, just breaking apart, same as any other matter that you stress too much. Make jelly and put it on a barstool. Spin the barstool and...

Haha.
If you've lost your cat, don't blame Quantum Mechanics. -
bhobba reacted to QuarkyMeson's post in the thread Programs What core abstractions connect real analysis, probability, operators? with Like.
When you let AI write your question for you it just becomes muddy about what you're actually trying to ask or what you really understand.

I got out ahead of my skis on that, trying to make it look pretty, but I've fixed what I originally wrote. It's now ##\int u~dv = uv -...

Why do you think that's wrong?
