Q: Delayed choice quantum eraser - partial information retrieval

ghurpostIn Delayed choice quantum eraser experiment entangled photons are sent through different paths. They do not reach different detector at different times. The one arriving early is called a signal photon. The photon that arrives at its destination at later time randomly goes through one (using the ...

Q: Physics is invariant under Unitary transformation

MathhackerDefinition of Invariant subspace In mathematics, an invariant subspace of a linear mapping T : V → V from some vector space V to itself is a subspace W of V that is preserved by T; that is, T(W) ⊆ W (Definition from Wikipedia) Q1.My question is how to justify the following argument using the...

Q: If there are connections between gravity and time

Kalhar Pandyasir/mam i found a new theoy of connactions between time,gravity, energy, mass, force....... but I am in 12th science jst 17 year old.i dont know what to do now please help me if possible

 
I had a Verse which include psionic as one of the settings. Recently, I am also probing the themes of magic and science and quantum mysticism. One kind of phenomenon that tends to look like magic to ordinary people are psionic phenomenon.

In order to investigate how plausible quantum physics can address the concepts in mysticism, as well a possible more hard science way of introducing psionics in scifi stories (if it turns out to work when the conditions are right), the following was attempted.

Q: How to understand attempted links between relativity and quantum mechanics - made simple

Peter4075At a roughly high school mathematics level I understand (a) that relativity is modelled using four-dimensional spacetime curved by mass/energy with particles/light following the shortest possible paths (aka geodesics), and (b) quantum mechanics is modelled on the complex plane where the square of...

Q: Is penetration of a fast particle deep into a medium a quantum mechanical effect?

Jiang-min ZhangConsider the cosmic rays. The muons can travel 15000 meters through the atmosphere and get down to sea level. If this is not a quantum mechanical effect, its penetration depth is determined by the mean free path. The mean free path is about 68 nm on the sea level. Actually, by classical mecha...

A: Wave Function Collapse Versus Decoherence

SofiaDecoherence is not a sufficient explanation for the collapse. Decoherence means that the phases between the components of the wave-function, (when the latter is expanded as a quantum superposition), are destroyed. But WHY in a measurement we get a certain ONE from these components, the decoherenc...

> In order to undo the decoherence you have to do two things. (1) You would need to know exactly what interaction took place between them. (2) You would need to control both the system and the environment well enough to reverse the interaction. In most situations neither of those requirements is met, so according to the theory you can't undo the decoherence and restore the original state.

Q: Equivalent representations of stationary states in Quantum Mechanics

John DoeThe time-dependent Schrodinger equation is given as $$i \hbar | \psi(t) \rangle = \hat{H} | \psi(t) \rangle. $$ To find how the states evolve in time we want to find the linear operator $\hat{U}(t,t_0)$ such that $$| \psi(t) \rangle = \hat{U}(t,t_0)| \psi(t_0) \rangle.$$ Substituting into Schrod...

Q: Forms of the Schrodinger equation

John DoeThe most general form of the Shrodinger equation is $$i \hbar \frac{d}{dt}| \psi(t) \rangle = \hat{H} | \psi(t) \rangle$$ but we also have the Schrodinger equation when projected onto the position basis given as $$i \hbar \psi(r,t) = i \hbar \langle r | \psi(t) \rangle = \langle r | \hat{H}| \psi...

3:43 PM
p-adic quantum mechanics is a relatively recent approach to understanding the nature of fundamental physics. It is the application of p-adic analysis to quantum mechanics. The p-adic numbers are a counterintuitive arithmetic system that was discovered by the German mathematician Kurt Hensel in about 1899. The closely related adeles and ideles were introduced in the 1930s by Claude Chevalley and André Weil. Their study has now transformed into a major branch of mathematics. They were occasionally applied to the physical sciences, but it wasn't until a publication by the Russian mathematician Igor...

Q: Motivation for transition probabilities in quantum mechanics

AlexIn the area of the time-dependent perturbation theory, if we have $$\hat{H}(t) = \hat{H}_0 + \hat{V}(t).$$ The Schrodinger equation is $$i \hbar \frac{d | \Psi(t) \rangle}{dt} = (\hat{H}_0 + \hat{V}(t))| \Psi(t) \rangle$$ where in the Shrodinger picture we have $$|\Psi(t) \rangle = \sum_n c_n(t)e...

Q: Non-square, infinite, symmetric 1d well

MathieuConsider the potential $V(x)=1/x+1/(1-x)$ on the interval $[0,1]$, and the corresponding Schrödinger operator $-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+V(x)$. Is this operator essentially self-adjoint? Can we compute an explicit analytical representation for its eigenvalues and/or eigenfunctions? Is there anything w...

Q: Why does light travel slower in water relative to vacum?

QmechanicFirst of all read till the end. Do not mark as duplicate before finishing. The answer to the question above is that photons interact with molecules in the water which takes some time causing the net speed to drop. But lets remember something. For an object to be transparent the incoming light sho...

Q: Why a relatively weak coupling is needed for the application of the rotating wave approximation to obtain the Jaynes-Cummings model

AndykIn order to obtain the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian, the RWA is applied to the Hamiltonian: $$H=\frac{1}{2}\hbar\omega_0 \sigma_z+\hbar\omega \hat{a}^{\dagger}\hat{a}+g\hbar(\sigma_{+}+\sigma_{-})(\hat{a}+\hat{a}^{\dagger}),$$ under two conditions: the near resonance $\omega_0\approx\omega$, and t...

Q: Momentum of the particle

KonstantinHow is it possible to show that the probability that the momentum $\zeta$ of the particle belongs to the interval $(a,b)$ is $\int_a^b|\hat{\psi}(\zeta)|^2 \, d\zeta$ where $\hat{\psi}$ is the Fourier transform of $\psi$? $\psi$ is the wave-function. Thank you for your help in advance!
