Matterwave's latest activity
-
Matterwave replied to the thread Graduate How valid is the indivisible interpretation of quantum mechanics?.Very noob question, and totally understand if the answer is "go read the paper", but to what level of detail has this "interpretation"... -
Matterwave replied to the thread High School The problem of energy appearing out of nowhere.Local energy momentum conservation also happens in Newtonian physics (and indeed there, global energy momentum is well defined and... -
Matterwave replied to the thread A question about quantum entanglement.Could you elaborate the point? For example, when I read "the fundamental relativistic rule"... And then the definition you gave, am I to... -
Matterwave replied to the thread High School Quantum field theory vs. super string theory?.Genuine question since I'm no expert. Is this true of all string theories? Or does one use this limit to reduce the space of possible... -
Matterwave replied to the thread How best to learn? How to get 100%?."Hard" professors can be excellent. "Easy" professors can be horrible. I would think the goal is to avoid bad professors in favor of... -
Matterwave replied to the thread A question about quantum entanglement.What are these "things"? The quantum states in QFT are of the field. So, I don't understand what is meant by quantum states generated... -
Matterwave replied to the thread How best to learn? How to get 100%?.In the US I think you can at least try to figure out *when* to take a certain course and *which* elective courses to take. There's... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Is AI Overhyped?.AI is certainly over hyped, but even if it is significantly over hyped it can still be totally transformative for society. The hype is... -
Matterwave replied to the thread A question about quantum entanglement.For me, even just the "standard QM" way of expressing an entangled state as explicitly one that is not a simple tensor product state... -
Matterwave reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread A question about quantum entanglement with
Like.
No, that's not what he said. He said they are a two-particle excitation of a quantum field. That's not the same as a one-particle... -
Matterwave replied to the thread High School The problem of energy appearing out of nowhere.Ah, found the statement from Wald that I was trying to look up. I should have just quoted him instead. He is far more rigorous than me... -
Matterwave replied to the thread High School The problem of energy appearing out of nowhere.Fair, if the consensus is to treat ##\nabla_a T^{ab}## as a general statement of conservation of energy in GR then that's fine with me~... -
Matterwave replied to the thread High School The problem of energy appearing out of nowhere.Maybe to the OP I can make the following (I believe) fully non-controversial statement: GR "obeys relativity" and yet admits solutions... -

No "energy" in the sense of Noether's Theorem; but local conservation of stress-energy still holds, since the EFE always holds in GR. So...
