Sure but your original post does not tell me why would that be the case. It is like asking if ##e^2## is related to rotation somehow.

Can you provide more specific formulas? I feel that you can shove ##\alpha## anywhere where ##e^2## is found and get any interpretation you want. For example, Larmor power formula can be written using ##\alpha## but that introduces a ##\hbar## that was not there making it look like if its a...

I'm happier now. What is the other one? Copenhagen, Montevideo, (Växjö,) and?

We should have more interpretations named after cities, having just two is unfortunate.

To be fair I was asking for definition of "realistic" which I would say is more about the interpretation being pragmatic than adhering to whatever "realism" means.

While I like this, it is not like if I can picture it better, because even with a classical field in mind I cannot get a sense of how it violates Bell inequalities.

Any definition will do. All interpretations are physically valid (in the sense that predict the same phenomena). So at this point one just needs to indicate what kind of criteria they want more and we can argue which interpretation approximates that criteria better.

Define realistic.

As interpretations are mostly "what feels right" philosophically, I can argue that it does not help much in understanding the concept of entanglement. It "feels as weird" as Bohmian mechanics or superdeterminism in that regard. Mathematically it is much interesting as it provides a duality...

Please bring this to the history forum.

Can somebody edit the title for a more descriptive one?

The man who saw the first atomic bomb @sbrothy mentioned this story in another thread so expand on the details here. Richard Feynman worked in the Manhattan Project and he is probably one of the only scientist who saw the bomb of the Trinity test with his own eyes from 20 miles away. In his...

As far as I know, the anecdote of the windshield is associated with Richard Feynman not Oppenheimer.

I already posted an article by Physics World in the Biography, history, philosophy of physics sources on the recently found interview of J. Robert Oppenheimer that was restored. Here is another article by Physics Today: R. Dahn, "Oppenheimer reflects on his early career" (May 2026)...

This is crazy. So how does the AI handles the workers? She hires and makes contracts ?
