Emergence of Time from Quantum Interaction with the Environment

[bhobba]

The nature of time is a topic many find interesting. A recent thread about the topic was closed (correctly) as personal speculation. However, articles on the topic have appeared in peer-reviewed journals eg

https://journals.aps.org/prl/pdf/10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.140202

I am posting it here as a starting point for such a discussion. With my mentor's hat on, as usual, please refrain from personal speculation and use reputable sources, e.g., standard textbooks and peer-reviewed literature.

Thanks

A low level study that may bear fruits is that of solving for time in the basics of Newton's laws: V=D/T, D=Vo* t+ at^2/2, A=( Vf-Vo)/t.

The unfathomable infinite, a problem we keep running into. It could be every action no matter how small spun off a new universe and it happened all at once. We just witness it based on our actions. Too much right ?
