PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Needs explanation for P in quantum tunneling formula.Please note that we do not recommend LLMs as sources. Do you mean the specific topic of quantum tunneling, or QM in general? I would... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Needs explanation for P in quantum tunneling formula.Where? Please give a reference. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Needs explanation for P in quantum tunneling formula.No. Planck's constant is a constant. It doesn't change no matter what happens to any quantum system. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Needs explanation for P in quantum tunneling formula.Where? Please give a reference. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Classic question regarding the nature of quantum tunneling.Sorry, but that's not what PF is for. We are here to help people understand mainstream science. That includes mainstream QM, but, as has... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.I think so. I'm wondering whether the paper talks about this explicitly. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.This doesn't look like they're differentiating with respect to ##\tau##, but with respect to coordinate time ##x^0##, at least on the... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.The paper is behind a paywall so I can't read it. Is there an arxiv link to a preprint? Or, if you can post a relevant equation here... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.Yes, that's a good reference. Note that in that discussion, the known functions of ##\tau## are the coordinates ##x^\mu##... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.Wrong. If you can only take a partial derivative with respect to ##\tau##, then you do not know everything as a function of ##\tau##... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.Why? You said we know everything as known functions of ##\tau## only. Differentiating a known function of ##\tau## with respect to... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Quaternionic Rays instead of Complex.Then this thread is personal theory, and will remain closed. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Differentiation of the connections.Um, just differentiate the known functions of ##\tau## with respect to ##\tau##? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread High School Classic question regarding the nature of quantum tunneling.We don't know. Different interpretations of QM say different things about this. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Quaternionic Rays instead of Complex.This question has already been answered: cosmologists so far have paid little or no attention to the theory. Ultimately it's up to the...
