THE FRAGILE NOW. “We can experimentally preserve present moment systems in sufficient isolation to keep them in at least partial superpositions of states, but only with great care and on a small scale.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM FLUCTUATIONS are a consequence of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. In this state matter and antimatter constantly create and annihilate new matter. These fluctuations are tiny random variations in the values of the several fields surrounding elementary particles. https://lnkd.in/dq9zhq3D View in LinkedIn

CIRCUS MASTER. “I have become rather like King Midas, except that everything turns not into gold but into a circus.” (Albert Einstein). https://lnkd.in/dSyZ8e3f View in LinkedIn

ISOLATION IS ARTIFICIAL. “Besides, we will see below that we can then avoid having to swallow Schrodinger's cat. In the view of this essay, the philosophical difficulty with the U- and R-processes lies in the fact that we have to make calculations for isolated systems, but there are no large isolated systems in reality, only one enormous universal wave function in continuous process of collapse.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

LITTLE CONCESSION. “If we can conceptually swallow an elephant of that size, surely accepting the U- and R-processes as inextricable parts of each other is the mere equivalent of horse-swallowing, and the Feynman-Stueckelberg vision is perhaps dog-sized? “ https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

COEXISTING CONTRADICTIONS. “In order to even begin, however, in quantum theory, we have to accept that particles are waves and vice-versa, despite a wave potentially permeating all space and a particle occupying a tiny fixed point.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

THE NUT. “A great deal of difficulty has arisen due to the apparent incompatibility of the deterministic U-process and the probabilistic R-process.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

CREATION. “In the STH picture we live in the same moment of creation today. Creation is not unusual, it happens all the time, literally.” (STH = Symmetrical Time Hypothesis). https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

WORLD AND ANTIWORLD. “Now is as short as possible and it is all we can reach. The wave functions are the totality of the two realities. The word "collapse" is too passive, in that there are only two relevant times to include in the functions, namely +t and -t.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn

SMALL ACTIVE ZONE. “We accept that space expands, throughout all space, by a small fraction of total space. It is surely natural, by symmetry considerations, to picture time expanding, throughout all space, by a small fraction of total time. In the standard picture, a burst of creation exploded outward in time and space at the instant of the Big Bang.” https://lnkd.in/gDaxUYAS View in LinkedIn
