I understand that the Quantum Hall Effect explains how both the transverse and longitudinal resistance vary with magnetic field strength.

I don’t get why the hall resistance is equal to the hall voltage over the current .


I know current isn’t a vector quantity but isn’t the hall resistance an opposition to the charge flow that goes across the conductor due to the magnetic field?

I have read that Ohm’s Law has nothing to do with Hall Voltage but I can’t understand why Rhall=Vhall/I

I would only think the longitudinal resistance would be an opposition to the current I.

What is wrong with the way I am visualizing this?
 
I read Hanbury Brown and Twiss's experiment is using one beam but split into two to test their correlation. It said the traditional correlation test were using two beams........ This confused me, sorry. All the correlation tests I learnt such as Stern-Gerlash are using one beam? (Sorry if I am wrong) I was also told traditional interferometers are concerning about amplitude but Hanbury Brown and Twiss were concerning about intensity? Isn't the square of amplitude is the intensity? Please...
I am not sure if this belongs in the biology section, but it appears more of a quantum physics question. Mike Wiest, Associate Professor of Neuroscience at Wellesley College in the US. In 2024 he published the results of an experiment on anaesthesia which purported to point to a role of quantum processes in consciousness; here is a popular exposition: https://neurosciencenews.com/quantum-process-consciousness-27624/ As my expertise in neuroscience doesn't reach up to an ant's ear...
