Is there a quantum basis for HUMAN AWARENESS? Our awareness a PART of the UNIVERSE right?

Your thoughts are eagerly anticipated.

Be well,

I do not think we have decided what awareness is, let alone whether it has a quantum basis. Whether the brain facilitates quantum effects, however, has been the subject of past debate.

eg. http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0005025
 
DO you have a BEST guess as to WHAT 'awareness' IS?
 
Might I suggest that you go down to the philosophy boards and look at the various consciousness threads? They have been all over most of the definitions and problems.

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
