Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the connection between the concepts of proportion, as related to large-scale properties in physics, and quantum theory, which deals with the small-scale properties of the universe. Participants explore how these two theories might be reconciled or connected.

Discussion Character

  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asks how to connect the theories of proportion and quantum mechanics, suggesting that they represent different scales of the universe.
  • Another participant requests clarification on the terms "Proportion" and "Quantum" to better understand the original question.
  • A participant outlines that proportion relates to large-scale properties as described by Einstein, while quantum theory pertains to atomic and subatomic properties.
  • A later reply introduces the concept of quantum gravity, indicating a potential area of exploration for reconciling general relativity with quantum mechanics.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not appear to reach a consensus on the connection between the two theories, and multiple competing views remain regarding how to approach the reconciliation of large-scale and small-scale physics.

Contextual Notes

There is a lack of clarity regarding the definitions of "Proportion" and "Quantum," which may affect the discussion. The relationship between general relativity and quantum mechanics remains unresolved.

How can you connect this two theory ? !

You might want to expand on your question a bit before expecting an answer. What do you mean by "Proportion" (and "Quantum", for that matter) and what exactly is your concern?
 
We have 2 important theory in physics
1. Proportion ( tell about the huge space and too big properties ) / Einstein /
2. Quantum ( tell about the small size of universe : atoms and their properties )
That s easy to understand ; how can u connect these theory ?
Can you ?
Do u think they have any way to connection or not ?
 
quantum gravity

I think what you want to know is how to reconcile our theory of gravity (general relativity) with quantum mechanics. I'm sure someone here can give you pointers to learn more about various approaches to quantum gravity.
