Ttimmdeeg replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.Sorry for a layman question in between. As I understood it a quantum object has no well defined properties unless it interacts. Isn't...

I don't understand that point. A function is a mathematical object (a very interesting one). The wave function is also a mathematical... -

Ttimmdeeg replied to the thread Undergrad The quintessence as variable dark energy.Thanks, its very hard to see the connection of the strong Equivalence Principle with Timescape though. According to the paper I showed...

Ttimmdeeg replied to the thread Undergrad The quintessence as variable dark energy.To me its hard to grasp how Timescape works. It is e.g. argued that clocks in voids tick faster and in gravitational walls around them...

That's not an update. It shares exactly one author, and the topic is not the same. Obviously, there is some relationship, but that's... -

I think Timescape is a model that says the inhomogeneity is strong enough to affect our observations, but you can model inhomogeneity as... -

That is an exceedingly narrow statement of the equivalence principle. The most commonly accepted meaning of strong equivalence principle... -
