Werunom, Thanks for the response. I agree with you too that this is the case, but I would like it to come from someone who has a degree in quantum physics or has at least a lot of expertise to verify the claims being made on what Wheeler meant by "act of observation"

Bumping this. I would like to know what Wheeler is implying about the act of observation. I am pretty sure he means with detectors or instruments, and not that of a sentient being's knowledge of the particle. Is this correct? Someone who knows what they're talking about please respond. :)

Wheeler's delayed choice experiment is a thought experiment proposed by John Archibald Wheeler in 1978. Wheeler proposed a variation of the famous double-slit experiment of quantum physics, one in which the method of detection can be changed after the photon passes the double slit, so as to...

I just want to say also that soprano over at mbt is not the tofu guy here. Also, Ross Rhodes does not have a lot of credential when discussing quantum physics correctly, does he? This site here http://www.bottomlayer.com/bottom/reality/chap2.html talks about the experiment that Thomas mentions...

Name is BrandonHedberg there

It's in the Physics section, titled, "Putting Things Straight, Consciousness and QM Issue." Here: http://www.my-big-toe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5669

Does the wave function of the particle collapse or get interfered with upon interactions with other particles? In all cases?

So I've been in a debate at this other forum on http://www.my-big-toe.com/ My Big TOE book written by "physicist" Thomas W. Campbell For some days now, I've been telling them that there is absolutely no evidence for the experiment that is claimed in at 2:45 to 4:00. He (Thomas) says in...

I accept that it is incomplete. I don't think science could provide a complete theory. That is my personal belief.

I think everyone is part of each other in a coherent system of communication and perception. It is the area of matter known as your body where your signaling and collective mechanisms exist. You communicate and interact, just as I communicate and interact. So not to say you could be someone...

Yeah, that's me. So watch out! We call very weird or strange people 'Loonies'. The word Loony was derived out of Luna, the name of our moon. Just an interesting idea. Do you suppose that if the effects are not negligible, they are at least minimal? In other words, is there any possibility...

If gravity can be repulsive, it's yet to be discovered. I have a belief that it could be repulsive. It's mesmerizing what could happen if gravity would be repulsive, or if mass had negative values, etc.

Space-time can be thought of, in Einstein's eyes, as a gigantic frozen block of ice. All movement, ever, is inside this block of ice. Does the block of ice exist? Is it completely deterministic? And you're right. If there is no information being exchanged or "moving", then there is no...

Einstein was a genius, but he never said time was an illusion, at least not in the idea you're meaning. Time is real, it's just as real as space. You cannot even describe motion without using both space *and* time. Einstein even made up a new word, space-time, a combination of the 3...

Pretty sure Entropy can be thought of as the forward motion of time. Try putting all of the carbon molecules back into the can of pop you just opened. Good luck with that. Also, another idea is try to put an egg back together after it has been shattered on the floor. Not only would you have...
