PROBABILITY PATH. “A naive protocol can be outlined in terms of a series of steps, where a particle samples the local tension structure of a region or along a line of O(λ) in comparison with its previous reference frame, gets an estimate of how the path bends (∼D), generates a shift in angle of progress according to some probability distribution and then reset its reference frame in agreement with the last sampled region.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

OPTICS. “The key properties of such particle diffraction is scale invariance in particle wavelength (λ) vs scale of the geometry (D), interference, end particle paths of straight lines in accord with the symmetry of the geometry, and nested intensity patterns from nested geometry configurations.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

MIGHTY CONFLUENCE. “The process of particle propagation must be modelled on the wave-particle duality, which provides the only flat space-time effect that can be consistent with a relative geometry scenario.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

EVERYTHING COMPUTES. “Any such communication will be imperfect, and restricted by the way the particle interacts with the structure.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

PARTICULAR KNOWLEDGE. “A quantum particle would interact with the quantum constituents underlying the tension structure which defines e.g. what is ‘forward’. This must be imparted on the particle, which cannot have knowledge of the local structure in each region prior to encountering it.” (Now re-read this!). https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

PORTRAIT OF REALITY. “Unlike in a background, with an information origin of space-time a particle cannot simply ‘pass through space-time’, following geodesics set by curvature.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

ALL FROM HYDROGEN. “The B2FH paper was a landmark scientific paper on the origin of the chemical elements. The paper's title is Synthesis of the Elements in Stars, but it became known as B2FH from the initials of its authors: Margaret Burbidge, Geoffrey Burbidge, William A. Fowler, and Fred Hoyle. It was written from 1955 to 1956 at the University of Cambridge and Caltech, then published in Reviews of Modern Physics in 1957. Hoyle was the intellectual leader.” (Led by the very remarkable Fred Hoyle). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B2FH_paper View in LinkedIn

THIS DIFFICULT PAPER is a true masterpiece in putting mathematical concepts into common language, to the extent that this is possible. Bear with it and see the world through her eyes. https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM FLUCTUATIONS. “Every elementary particle is a ripple. A photon [a particle of light is a ripple in the electric field; an up quark is a ripple in the up quark field]. And if there are no particles around? Even in what we consider empty space, the fields are still there, sitting quietly in empty space, much as there’s water in the pond even if no wind or pebbles are making ripples on its surface, and there’s still air in the room even if there’s no sound.” https://lnkd.in/ejs3NFW5 View in LinkedIn
