Quotes About Quantum

Dicho científico decidió desarrollar un aparato que contara el número de veces que una partícula surge y desaparece en un segundo. Denominó, con gran acierto, al aparato que había inventado: "cámara de burbujas", y se encontró con que una partícula subatómica surge y se desvanece 1022 veces por segundo.

One of the last holdouts, Hawking finally came to agree that quantum theory requires that information is preserved in black hole formation and evaporation. The implications? "There is no baby universe branching off, as I once thought. The information remains firmly in our universe. I'm sorry to disappoint science fiction fans, but if information is preserved, there is no possibility of using black holes to travel to other universes.

Universe consists of frozen light.

If we supposed that theories gave true knowledge, corresponding to 'reality as it is', then we would have to conclude that Newtonian theory was true until around 1900, after which it suddenly became false, while relativity and quantum theory suddenly became the truth. Such an absurd conclusion does not arise, however, if we say that all theories are insights, which are neither true nor false but, rather, clear in certain domains, and unclear when extended beyond these domains.

The accumulated research into quantum physics has begun to explain how the mind, or consciousness, has always played a major role in determining our particular experience of reality.

Quantum computation is... a distinctively new way of harnessing nature... It will be the first technology that allows useful tasks to be performed in collaboration between parallel universes.

Copenhagen interpretation Niels Bohr's combination of instrumentalism, anthropocentrism and studied ambiguity, used to avoid understanding quantum theory as being about reality.

Existimos en múltiples versiones en universos denominados «momentos».

Quantum theory is, as I have said, one such theory. But the other three main strands of explanation through which we seek to understand the fabric of reality are all 'high level' from the point of view of quantum physics. They are the theory of evolution (primarily the evolution of living organisms), epistemology (the theory of knowledge) and the theory of computation (about computers and what they can and cannot, in principle, compute).

Everything is an energy, numbers and symbols included.

We have reversed the usual classical notion that the independent "elementary parts" of the world are the fundamental reality, and that the various systems are merely particular contingent forms and arrangements of these parts. Rather, we say that inseparable quantum interconnectedness of the whole universe is the fundamental reality, and that relatively independent behaving parts are merely particular and contingent forms within this whole.

the earliest battles flared between himself and fellow physicist Leonard Susskind over whether quantum mechanics implied that information could leak out of black holes.

But, as Uri Geller seemed to demonstrate, certain talented individuals might possess "volitional control" such that they could impose some order on the usually random quantum motions. Some

When the noise died down, she could lose herself in mathematics—in attempts to combine quantum mechanics with the theory of relativity—and forget the world around her.

He was working on neural networks and digital quantum processes, that sort of thing." "I have no idea what you're talking about." "He was trying to get computers to think, to replicate the human brain.

God throws dice, what can I say?

God runs electromagnetics by wave theory on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and the Devil runs them by quantum theory on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

I can't believe that God plays dice with the universe.

Schrödinger's wave-mechanics is not a physical theory, but a dodge - and a very good dodge too.

Your body is molecular structure your body is a massive energy at a very high speed of vibration.

There was a long history of speculation that in quantum gravity, unlike Einstein's classical theory, it might be possible for the topology of spacetime to change.

The history of the universe is, in effect, a huge and ongoing quantum computation. The universe is a quantum computer.

By recognizing that the chemical atom is composed of single separable electric quanta, humanity has taken a great step forward in the investigation of the natural world.

You can live constrained within the confines of a solely material perspective, or choose instead the infinite field of quantum possibility.
