Quotes About Subatomic

Kvarky samy o sob? prakticky nic neváží! Každý z nich váží mí?, než kolik je 1 procento hmotnosti protonu. Ale jakmile dáte dva kvarky dohromady, kdovípro? se jejich hmotnost navýší na stonásobek. To je, jako kdybyste secvakli t?i kosti?ky lega a najednou zjistili, že váží jako t?ista kosti?ek lega.
~ Jorge Cham
And if you're singing to someone, or if they're singing along, and suddenly you're in harmony, then it's actually making a huge difference on a subatomic level that is actually transforming the world.
~ Jason Mraz
Toda interacción subatómica consiste en la aniquilación de las partículas originales y la creación de nuevas partículas. El mundo subatómico es una danza continua de creación y aniquilación, de masa que se convierte en energía y de energía que se convierte en masa. Formas efímeras entran en la existencia y salen de ella como una chispa, creando una realidad que no tiene fin y que es constantemente creada de nuevo.
~ Sogyal Rimpoche
Every subatomic interaction consists of the annihilation of the original particles and the creation of new subatomic particles. The subatomic world is a continual dance of creation and annihilation, of mass changing into energy and energy changing to mass. Transient forms sparkle in and out of existence, creating a never-ending, forever newly created reality.

~ Sogyal Rinpoche
At very small, subatomic dimensions, the structure of space-time is irregular. It's not smooth, it's sort of bubbly and foamy. And because it's way down at the quantum level, it's called quantum foam.
~ Michael Crichton
Quantum mechanics holds that matter may not be as innocent of mind as the materialist would have us believe. For example, a subatomic particle can exist simultaneously in multiple locations, is pure possibility, until it is measured—that is, perceived by a mind. Only then and not a moment sooner does it drop into reality as we know it: acquire fixed coordinates in time and space. The implication here is that matter might not exist as such in the absence of a perceiving subject. Needless
~ Michael Pollan
quarks," a collective term that encompasses all particles that are governed by the strong nuclear force.
~ Bill Bryson
Fears have been raised that in their enthusiasm scientists might inadvertently create a black hole or even something called "strange quarks," which could, theoretically, interact with other subatomic particles and propagate uncontrollably. If you are reading this, that hasn't happened. Finding

the idea of action at a distance—that one particle could instantaneously influence another trillions of miles away—was a stark violation of the special theory of relativity. This expressly decreed that nothing could outrace the speed of light and yet here were physicists insisting that, somehow, at the subatomic level, information could. (No one, incidentally, has ever explained how the particles achieve this feat.
~ Bill Bryson
To explain what kept atoms together, other forces were needed, and in the 1930s two were discovered: the strong nuclear force and weak nuclear force.
~ Bill Bryson
All kinds of physical considerations become senseless when we try to apply them to distances smaller than 10 -13 centimeter.
~ George Gamow
he was able to estimate the size of the nucleus of the atom. It was one hundred thousand times smaller than the atom itself.
~ Michio Kaku
The key point is now this: If the wave function of a particle vibrates along this surface, it will inherit this SU(N) symmetry. Thus the mysterious SU(N) symmetries arising in subatomic physics can now be seen as by-products of vibrating hyperspace! In other words ,we now have an explanation for the origin of the mysterious symmetries of wood: They are really the hidden symmetries coming from marble.
~ Michio Kaku
If we now take a Kaluza-Klein theory defined in 4+N dimensions and then curl up N dimensions, we will find that the equations split into two pieces. The first piece is Einstein's usual equations, which we retrieve as expected. But the second piece will not be the theory of Maxwell. We find that the remainder is precisely the Yang-Mills theory, which forms the basis of all subatomic physics! This is the key to turning the symmetries of wood into the symmetries of marble.
~ Michio Kaku
Por ejemplo, la superpartícula del electrón se llama «selectrón»; la del quark, «squark»; y la del leptón (como el electrón o el neutrino) se denomina «sleptón».
~ Michio Kaku
This means that subatomic particles are just like musical notes. The universe is a symphony of strings, physics represents the harmonies of these notes, and the "mind of God" that Einstein chased after for so many decades is cosmic music resonating through hyperspace.
~ Michio Kaku
Subatomic particles do not exist but rather show 'tendencies to exist', and atomic events do not occur with certainty at definite times and in definite ways, but rather show 'tendencies to occur'.
~ Fritjof Capra
Immensely simplified, quantum physics has two rules: Very small things don't have locations, we just have probabilities of where they are. The first rule only works if these very small things don't interact with their environment.
~ Brian Clegg
At such small scales, space and time might seethe and roil at random. They might fluctuate like bubbling foam.
~ Steven H. Strogatz
Space and time would no longer make sense below these scales. They're the end of the line.
~ Steven H. Strogatz
People can't predict how ong they will be happy with recently acquired objects, how long their marriages will last, how their new jobs will turn out, yet it's subatomic particles that they cite as limits of prediction. They're ignoring a mammoth standing in front of them in favor of matter even a microscope would not allow them to see.
