    Why do solids maintain their individual identity when placed together?

    Why is a solid so solid? Because a solid is NOT SOLID! Normal matter (excluding special cases like neutron stars or black holes), even very dense materials like a block of metal, are actually mostly empty space. Subatomic particles, relative to their size, are farther apart than stars in the...

    Are there degrees of quantum entanglement?

    Please take a moment to answer a newbie question. My understanding of quantum entanglement is that a pair of particles can instantaneously interact even if they are separated by great distances. But doesn't this just mean that even though they may be separated in our 4D spacetime, they may...

    Euclidean geometry doesn't exist?

    OP here. I'm not sure if quantum mechanics needs a non-commutative geometry. That was xepma who said that. xepma may be right that non-commutative and stochastic geometries are the same, but I am not enough of a mathematician to know. But I believe it needs a stochastic geometry, based on...

    Euclidean geometry doesn't exist?

    As a newbie, I apologize if this topic has been discussed before. It seems to me that one result of quantum physics is that Euclidean geometry is artificial and cannot be represented in real space. For example, there can be no such thing as a straight line in granular quantum space. And...
