He asks (among other things): Regarding collapse of a wave function – a quote in a Grant Callin book has the aliens saying to us “So you have developed an entire physics based on the premise ...

Students learning quantum mechanics are taught the Schrodinger equation and how to solve it to obtain a wave function. But a crucial step is skipped because it has puzzled scientists since the ...

The fuzzy quantum shape that describes the speed or location of a single particle, its wave function, has now been directly measured in the laboratory, giving this mathematical concept a small ...

That means, if you’re able to calculate wave-function of those quantum fluctuations, you can learn how the universe ended up the way it is now. In a pre-print, a group of physicists around Nima Arkani ...

For nearly a century physicists have argued about whether the wave function is a real part of the world or just a mathematical tool. Now, the first experiment in years to draw a line in the ...

At the heart of the issue are the contrasting ideas on the very nature of quantum mechanics itself. In their paper, the British physicists contend that the wave function is not just a tool that ...
