hello,

how can we be sure that quantum physics (uncertainty,superposition) is not a consequence or directly related to special relativity. for example particles spinning faster than light could explain many quantum effects, or i am wrong?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
you are wrong
 
the speed of the electron in a bohr atom is 1/137 * c
 
You can apply quantum limits to gravitation.
For example the highest density inside a black hole, or in the universe is the Planck density...
 
What does it mean for a particle to spin faster than light?

Also, "encoding" quantum mechanics as a relativistic effect seems like just a variant of hidden variable theories.

When you make a statement like this, are you aware that SR has been fully incorporated into quantum mechanics? See the Dirac equation, for example.

Now, would you like to rephrase your question in light of that piece of information?

ZapperZ = Ophiolite? (http://www.thescienceforum.com )

If you 2 arent the same person then you certainly are related to each other.

I doubt it since he really is ZapperZ. :biggrin:

How are we related to each other?

In any case, this is rather off-topic and irrelevant.
