Breaking barriers with quantum physics | Dr. Shohini Ghose | TEDxNickelCity
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Dr. Shohini Ghose talks about how the laws of quantum mechanics may be harnessed to develop next generation computers and novel protocols like teleportation. Shohini … Continue reading
Can You Make a Quantum Computer out of Olive Oil?
[…] Why on earth did Wikipedia say that olive oil performs spontaneous parametric down-conversion? In this video, we learn the basics of quantum mechanics and we use it to explain why extra virgin olive oil shines red with a green … Continue reading
Scientists Announce a Puzzling Discovery At The Large Hadron Collider
The Higgs boson is considered to be the cornerstone of the Standard Model of particle physics. Its discovery in 2012 created ripples in the scientific community as it was the last missing piece of the Standard Model. However, the model … Continue reading
There’s a striking link between quantum and astronomic scales. What could it mean? | Aeon Videos
A discovery with potentially mind-boggling implications about the behaviour of matter at the quantum and astronomical scales While working late one night in 2017, Konstantin Batygin, a professor of planetary sciences at the California Institute of Technology, made a mathematical … Continue reading
Why Faster Than Light Breaks The Universe
This week we’re answering some common questions about the speed of light and why its the absolute speed limit for information in the universe. Veritasium’s Video: • Why No One Has Me… Sabine’s Video: • I Think Faster Th… 0:00 Can Anything Go Faster than Light? 0:48 Why Faster … Continue reading
Can a New Law of Physics Explain a Black Hole Paradox?
When the theoretical physicist Leonard Susskind encountered a head-scratching paradox about black holes, he turned to an unexpected place: computer science. In nature, most self-contained systems eventually reach thermodynamic equilibrium … but not black holes. The interior volume of a … Continue reading
‘QBism’: quantum mechanics is not a description of objective reality – it reveals a world of genuine free will | The Conversation
In a In a cubist painting, reality is more than a single perspective can capture. wikipedia, CC BY-SA According to a school of thought known as QBism, quantum mechanics is a guide to action. What does quantum mechanics, the most … Continue reading
Great Mysteries of Physics 5: will we ever have a fundamental theory of life and consciousness? | The Conversation
metamorworks/Shutterstock Life may be using quantum mechanics to its advantage. What’s the difference between a living collection of matter, such as a tortoise, and an inanimate lump of it, such as a rock? They are, after all, both just made … Continue reading
Why Physicists Think Gravity Creates Light
[…] Most articles on the topic stop just after the reveal – gravity can turn into light, but don’t explain how. If you’re like me that wasn’t quite enough to satisfy your curiosity, so I wanted to dig a bit … Continue reading
Monist philosophy and quantum physics agree that all is One | Aeon Essays
Detail from Starry Night (1893) by Edvard Munch. Courtesy the Getty Centre, Los Angeles The ancient philosophy of monism and the physics of quantum entanglement agree: all that exists is one unified whole ‘From all things One and from One … Continue reading
Here are 3 ways a Multiverse could exist.
Is the multiverse possible? Yes! In fact, there are 3 different kinds: Many Worlds, Eternal Inflation, and Infinite Repeating Space. They come from our most fundamental theories: general relativity and quantum mechanics. […]
