CONSENSUS. “Physicists insist that the Schrodinger equation is symmetric in time and has no preference for a particular now. Let us take this completely seriously.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

GO FOR THE RIDE. “If we are faced with two alternative hypotheses, both consistent with experiment, one with great explanatory power and leading to a completely symmetric spacetime, the other asymmetric and full of philosophical problems, perhaps we can suspend our disbelief still further and see what the STH predicts.” (STH = Symmetrical Time Hypothesis). https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ANTIMATTER BACKWARDS IN TIME. “From now on in this essay all antiparticles are assumed for the sake of the argument to move backward in time as a matter of physical reality.” https://lnkd.in/d4BvAHFn View in LinkedIn

THE LAST STANDING. “Surely only residual Classical prejudices stand in the way of acceptance of the Feynman-Stueckelberg interpretation if this argument is correct.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

ORIGIN. “However, the initial spontaneous mutation rate is typically low, as discussed above, so that the fitness cost of producing mutations at even a 100-fold higher rate is small. Furthermore, new hypermutator variants frequently arise because loss-of-function mutations in many genes give rise to this phenotype.” https://www.nature.com/articles/nrg3564 View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues from last weekend and ends this weekend on the theme of the very heart of evolution, inheritance with variation, or random gene mutation. The other face of evolution, natural selection, is performed by differential death and survival. Generate diversity, select and repeat. Generate diversity, select and repeat. This is evolution at its core. View in LinkedIn

MY EPITAPH. “Nothing perishes in this world; but things merely vary and change their form. To be born, means simply that a thing begins to be something different from what it was before; and dying, is ceasing to be the same thing. Yet although nothing retains long the same image, the sum of the whole remains constant.” (Ovid, Metamorphoses Book XV, 8 AD). https://lnkd.in/dhjhdUAs View in LinkedIn

NET EFFECTS. “Annihilation would produce no net contribution. Similarly matter created very close to the origin, (without leakage, case iii) on the (-) side would approach the (+) side by simple motion in time forward.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

LEAKING BETWEEN MIRROR WORLDS. “The following cases designated by roman numerals make no direct contribution to either preponderance. In case (i) antimatter leaking by quantum uncertainty from (-) time to (+) time would then move backwards in time toward the origin, approaching equal quantities of matter in case (ii) moving forward in time toward the origin on the (-) side of the origin after leaking by quantum uncertainty from (+) time.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn
