    Graduate Time dilation for particles in different trajectories through a gravitational field

    Well if A is moving at a constant velocity then its not accelerating?

    Graduate Is the wiki explanation of time dilation correct?

    Hey I just found a wiki post about time dilation and I was wondering if its correct

    Graduate Is Entanglement Finite or Timeless in Varying Spacetime Curvature?

    WOW!.. I never thought of it like this. My understanding(which may be wrong) is that the both tethered electrons are affected immediately despite speed or location. Not too long ago I was watching a video on some physicist trying to see a effect on an electron before they alter its tethered...

    Admissions Recommended Book For Entry to QM

    Hi guys, The other day I was struggling to to grasp some of the concepts in QM. I realized I would never understand without understanding the math. From what I know the following book is what they give to first year university students. I'm on page 20, and I am struggling. But I'm determined to...

    Graduate Is quantum mechanics incompatible with determinism?

    There is the multiverse theory :) That would explain the cause. But I suppose that just kicks the can down the road. We would be left asking what caused the multiverse.

    Graduate Is quantum mechanics incompatible with determinism?

    Its not predicted by "HG Wells time travel", but by Albert einsteins theory of relativity - time dilation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation If all matter exists at once, then so too must all time. hence spacetime.

    Graduate Is quantum mechanics incompatible with determinism?

    #Limited knowledge noob response warring# Well if the position an electron in space is based on probability and is somewhat random, and the big bang started on the quantum level, then the outcome of that big bang is a probability. On a more science fiction side of things, Backwards time travel...

    Graduate Does conscious observation or physical interaction cause wave function collapse?

    another double slit question - noob :( Hi guys, I never officially studied physics so my knowledge on the topic is limited. My understanding of quantum physics in relation to the double slit experiment is the following: When you only observe the end result of light, it appears as if it...
