  3. And we’ve come full circle again. Same claim, no physics to back it up.
  4. Do they have one? Can you cite any evidence? Most treatments of this that I’ve seen are careful to note that this is a relativistic correction to the energy level, and make no claim regarding either the speed or mass.
  5. Blended scotch instead of single-malt
  6. This is a view of the situation, but isn’t actually part of the QM. As has been pointed out, this is a classical interpretation, and it isn’t classical physics. Only if you insist that a signal is sent. But you insist that it works a particular way, and there’s no substance to that argument.

  9. Yes, I can, but as you quoted from the Nobel description, “in quantum mechanics, there does not seem to be any need for a signal to connect the different parts of an extended system.” Your position is the opposite of that. What this signal of yours is, only you can say. But you don’t.
  10. They are conjugate variables. Each is a fourier transform of the other. In QM it means the operators don’t commute, i.e. the order matters.
  11. Only you know the details. I’m asking because I don’t know. You keep talking about a signal and an interaction but won’t elaborate. I can’t Google it because AFAICT it’s your pet theory, rather than mainstream science.
  12. The number of significant digits depends on the precision of the data you have.
  13. Bold by me. You seem to be presenting an alternative view that a signal is needed. And I am asking for details of that signal.
  14. Modern and theoretical physics would probably be the best match.
  15. Yes. It’s called field ionization. Both nuclei are positively charged. Accelerating them independently is what happens in accelerators, and it’s not easy to do, nor do you get a large number of them to collide. Earnshaw’s theorem tells us you can’t confine the charges with static electric fields
  16. What does this have to with neutrinos?
  17. What interaction is used to send this qubit? Electromagnetic and gravitational are limited to c. Will you ever answer this question?
  18. Can you answer the question now? You acknowledge that the signal between Alice and Bob travels no faster than c. But previously you said there was another signal that Bob reads prior to that. What is that signal?
  19. What electric and magnetic field? Right- and left-handed refer to the spin relation to the momentum vector. There’s no charge or charge distribution.
  20. How can Bob read a signal before it gets to him?
  21. Click on “topics” on the left, under “forums” after you’ve clicked on “see their activity” in their profile
  22. IR = infrared light, so you can’t see it. As I said, you only get enough return when an object is nearby; the beam expands with distance. If you touch it, you’re blocking the sensor, so it won’t trigger
  23. These are main entrance, though it’s a gated community, and we have people at the gate.
  24. It could be an IR source and detector. You only get enough return when an object is nearby. If you touch it, you’re blocking the sensor. We have these at work for ADA compliance - the door opens automatically rather than opening by hand or pushing a button. Not security-related, as such.
  25. “astrophotography” doesn’t specify a wavelength. It just suggests where the camera is pointing. It would depend on the wavelength, and what the wall is made of. Radomes, for example, are designed to be transparent to certain wavelength ranges.
