    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    1> I do not want to include "Humans consciousness" in QM. I believe consciousness = chemical reaction. But (some)QM literature makes the act of observing by a human unique. 2> My main issue with QM is :- *why should the non-determinism (even in form of probabilities) exists at...

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    I read somewhere that officially Heisenberg declared QM closed and a complete theory. It was 1 of the Wikipedia page about QM.

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    well, any QM literature says "wave-function collapses" when observed. I inferred that at microscopic level, everything is understood as a probability without any cause of that probability being bizarre. Eg. cat dead/alive, moon present/absent, Single Photon both a particle and wave. But on...

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    I get that quantum phenomenon is not macroscopic. But is't a macroscopic phenomenon a function of 'n' microscopic ? If the non-determinism as shown by QM applies to microscopic entities, when do the laws of QM suddenly give up and the law of classical mechanics start ? When we observe. But why...

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    Source suggestions ? I have background in higher math and physics being an engineer. FYI, I mostly read from google. Links like : http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/bell-theorem/

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    Hence, everything is getting observed by everything else always. If that were true, why special cases for a human's act of observation ?

    The Nature of Knowledge in Quantum Mechanics

    It is ok for physics to distinguish between me and a rock out somewhere on the surface of Mars ? Who am I but a bag of chemicals ? Why would my action of observing be of any significance ? Why should the moon be "paged-in"/from-into-existence when I "observe" it and other times it is allowed...
