The Universe & The Heisenberg Principle


I got to thinking about the universe and Heisenberg . If I mentioned the number 56, all you know is that it is the number 56.

The number 56 could be anything but to keep it simple we'll keep it to these three possibilities:

  1. A particle which has weight or mass.

  2. A length.

  3. A change in the length.

    Einstein said that mass and energy are equivalent. This means that 56 under ( 1 ) has both a mass and energy of 56. In our real world, we have physical space and time or in other words Einstein's space-time. Somewhere in our real world we have the number ( 56 ) at Einstein's space location ( x, y, z ) at Einstein's time ( t ). Time in Einstein's space-time world is only a marker. If we ran across a particle in our space-time world at location ( x, y, z ) at marker time ( t ) we could measure its' mass or weight. The particle could be lying still, moving at a constant velocity or accelerating. If the particle was lying still we could easily measure its' mass or weight. If the particle was moving at a constant velocity or under acceleration, we would have to stop it and measure its' mass or weight. Our stopping of the particle means that its' velocity or acceleration are lost to measurement. If the particle had a velocity or was under acceleration, we could measure the velocity or acceleration while the particle was under velocity or acceleration but we wouldn't have a clue about the particle's mass or weight. Heisenberg said we could measure mass or weight but not velocity or acceleration at the same time. This means we are certain about one ( ( mass or weight ) ) but uncertain about the other ( velocity or acceleration ). The unknown particle could have a velocity of 56 ( 2 – constant length / unit time ) or an acceleration of 56 ( 3 – change in length traveled / unit time ). The quantum world is the reverse of the real world. Space only exists as a marker in the quantum world. In the quantum world we think of space as right here or over there. We can't travel through space in the quantum world to get from here to there because travel through space doesn't physically exist in the quantum world. The quantum world is made up of energy-time. Their literally aren't any particles in the quantum world. What we see as particles in the space-time world are clouds in the quantum world. These concentrations of clouds can be treated as particles in the quantum world. These concentrations of clouds may or may not have mass. They may also spin up, down or at an angle. These clouds may be still at the center, yet spin on the periphery or not spin on the periphery . Sometimes the spin drags the interior part of the cloud in a circle so it rotates at different speeds returning to its' original orientation at different times. We call this phenomena different ( return to normal ) rotations ( ie: 2 ½ X ). Sometimes the entire cloud consistently spins so the rotation for everything in the cloud is consistent ( one ( 1 ) rotation ). Energy in the energy-time quantum world can travel anywhere so the concentrations of energy aren't even but are on average statistically even. Quantum time in the quantum world can be sliced into smaller and smaller parts. Since energy in the quantum world isn't distributed evenly sometimes more energy ends up in a sliced piece of quantum time than is statistically expected.
    The universe is made up of the following three layers.
    1. Einstein's space-time world or our real world.
    2. 
     The dark energy- dark matter layer.
    3. 
    Q The quantum world.

Time in our space-time world moves all of us outward in a forward direction. That is why we age, things deteriorate and require repair or replacement. Our space-time world sits on a world of dark matter and dark energy. This dark energy and dark matter both expands and accelerates the expansion of our universe resulting in things in our universe becoming further apart. Dark matter and dark energy are the left over debris from antimatter matter interactions.

The quantum world exists underneath the dark energy and dark matter layer. When quantum time is sliced into smaller and smaller pieces it also compresses quantum energy which may be in greater volume in that slice of time then statistically normal. If that happens we know how much we sliced time, but we don't know how much energy that slice of time contains. The energy in that slice of time, if large enough, may or may not form a particle. If the particle is formed it goes up through the dark matter and dark energy layer causing an equivalent antimatter particle to be produced. These particles annihilate themselves in our space-time world and the respective energies return to the dark matter and dark energy layer as well as to the quantum layer. This action - reaction in the quantum layer creates quantum foam or quantum fluctuation which is basically the wave action of the returning quantum energy which is equivalent to the previously produced particle . Quantum mechanics is concerned with this phenomena. If the matter – antimatter process is quick enough and the energy returned fast enough to the quantum world nothing is noticed in our real world of space-time. Space, energy and time in our real world appear to be three separate things but in the energy-time or quantum world they are all the same thing viewed differently.

God Rolls The Dice


Our real world is primarily a location in space with time as a marker. For instance, I may say to you that I'll meet you at ----- ( location ( x, y, z )) at a time, say 3:00 pm.. My meeting you is in the future. Maybe we'll meet or not meet depending on the circumstances that occur in your and my space. Our meeting is in the future and is a probable prediction. Other future probable predictions involve percentages. A meteorologist from his experience and models may say that it is probable that it will be 33 % sunny and 67% cloudy. Whether he or she is right or not depends on his or her subjective experience, models and a coming together of all the factors in space at a time. The quantum world is somewhat different. In our real world, we have physical travel through space. The quantum world is the reverse of the real world. Space only exists as a marker in the quantum world. In the quantum world we think of space as right here or over there. We can't travel through space in the quantum world to get from here to there because travel through space doesn't physically exist in the quantum world. Since travel through space doesn't physically exist in the quantum world the past, present and future doesn't exist as we understand them. Time in the quantum world has the same function as space does in our real world. Time in our space – time world represents the past, present and future but we can't literally travel to the past and future except in our imagination and memory. The past, present and future in the quantum world is managed by the processes of entanglement, superlocation, and superposition. Quantum time means that a quantum particle exists in the past, present and future all at the same time at the same location and we can travel to the past, present and future. Superposition shows all the states or properties, possibilities and information at the same time in the past, present and future in the same location. Superlocation means that the past, present and future can exist at the same physical location because physical space doesn't exist in the quantum world except in the abstract. Since physical space doesn't physically exist in the quantum world more than one thing can exist at the same spot or location in the past, present and future. In other words, this means that the past, present and future all co-exist at the same time at the same spot or location in the quantum world. The existence of superlocation and superposition means that everything that is knowledge ( states or properties, possibilities and information ) exists at one superlocation all at once in the past, present and future. Possibility in our real world is called probability, Statistics is the science of probability in the real world and we calculate the probability of this and that happening all the time. Probability in the quantum world is called possibility. Possibility in the quantum world is represented by all the possible waves since space doesn't exist in the travel through physical space of the real world. Waves in our real world can interfere with one another, creating troughs and peaks. These wave interferences, troughs and peaks represent possibilities from the past, present and future of something at one location in the quantum world. Let's look at Schroedinger's cat. Usually Schroedinger's cat in the quantum world is considered to be alive and dead at the same time. There is a third possibility in that Schroedinger's cat is between being alive or dead which is moribund. The moribund condition is technically and subtly neither alive nor dead but is ½ way in between going in one direction or the other. God has rolled the dice in the quantum world. He / She has given us three choices concerning Schroedinger's cat. It is alive ( 1 ), dead ( 0 ) or moribund ( ½ ) . We make a random choice or bet on God's roll of the dice, by opening the box and eyeballing Schroedinger's cat. Our action adds energy in the form of photons to the box by opening and viewing it. This action causes Schroedinger's cat's past, present or future to be chosen which is basically our random action in quantum time but God's throw of the dice. Similarly, in the real world we may bet on someone's roll of the dice by putting our marker on a number, color or number and color combination. From the quantum world, Schroedinger's cat's past, present or future has become part of my and your's present in our real space-time based world.

Schrodinger's Cat, Light Switches & Quitrits

We live in a world which is mostly space and time . Space is something we move in and time is primarily used as a marker . We can't change the direction of time and we can't travel within time as we can within space. In our world, we can see the properties of most things by simply looking at or examining them . For instance a property of a car might be that it is red in color. If we want to gamble on something we can figure out the probability of winning or losing. For example if we toss a coin over a long period of time it will come out as a possibility of ½ because there is a chance that one time it will be heads and another time tails. The reason for this consistency is that we live in a space which is relatively constant. The quantum world is somewhat different. It doesn't have space in in which we have to move to get from A to B. Space in the quantum world is like time in our world. Space in the quantum world is an intellectual abstraction. Time in the world you and I know is, generally speaking, also an intellectual abstraction . Time in the quantum world has something called superposition. Superposition means that in the quantum world, all the properties of something like a car are presented at once. For instance all the possible colors and shades of a car are present at once. As soon as you eyeball the car in the quantum world, you only see one color because of your action of looking at it. The quantum world also has entanglement . Things in the quantum world can't literally travel through space because space doesn't exist . In the quantum world, entanglement modifies things. This means if you change something over here, the changes immediately appear over there. The last thing is what I call superlocation. Since space in the quantum world doesn't exist except as an abstraction, you can have things existing in exactly the same location. Now for the quitrit. In our world of time and space we usually think in terms of yes or no which is the one or zero bit. The computer in our world functions around the zero ( 0 ) or one ( 1 ) bit. There is a third ( 3rd ) possibility which most of us think as being random because it doesn't always present itself. There is a probability that the flipped coin could end up on its' edge instead of heads or tails. The chances of that happening from a probability viewpoint is so remote that we call it a random occurrence. The equivalent to a bit in our world is the qubit ( quantum bit ) in the quantum world. The equivalent to randomness in the quantum world since there isn't any space except in the abstract is the quitrit. The most famous example in the quantum world is Schrodinger’s cat. Usually Schrodinger’s cat in the quantum world is considered to be alive and dead at the same time ( qubit ) because of superposition or all possibilities until we open the cat's box and eyeball it at which point an arbitrary choice is made ( yes (1) or no (0 )) because we looked at it and disturbed the energy. Randomness in the quantum world is the quitrit. The quitrit represents the possibility that it isn't yes or no but somewhere in between yes or no. The in between is also a superposition of all possibilities but it is one that never crosses our minds. In the case of Schrodinger's cat it is the moribund condition which is technically and subtly neither alive nor dead but is ½ way in between. If you're not into cats, think of it as a light switch. The light switches superposition of all possibilities is either on ( yes ) or off ( no ). The moribund condition of the light switch in the superposition of all possibilities is when it is ½ way in between which is neither on ( yes ) nor off ( no ).

Here are the equivalents.

In the real world we have:

Yes – 1 - Bit

No – 0 - Bit

Random – Maybe something will happen and maybe it won't. The probability is ½ .

In the quantum world:

Yes – 1 - Qubit

No – 0 - Qubit

Quitrit – The quitrit is ½ way between two states which is one of the superpositions of all possibilities. Neither yes nor no but ½ way in between becoming one or the other. Technically in the quantum world there isn't any randomness because the superposition of all possibilities also covers the concept of randomness. Of course, as soon as you eyeball the quantum world you inadvertently add or subtract protons which create a chaotic system until everything settles down. It's a hard concept to grasp because it's always present. In our real world randomness doesn't always happen because in our real world we only have probability which might or might not happen in the abstract. This we know because nothing in the real world is 100% and it is extremely difficult to find a number that is completely random, if you want to do an experiment which depends on random numbers.

The Quantum World Is All About Possibilities

The hardest part about understanding the quantum world is to realize that it hasn't any physical space which we have to physically travel through in order to get from A to B. Travel through the quantum world is all about possibilities . On the surface , this doesn't seem to be such a big deal , but from our real world perspective it is a big deal . Take the famous double slit experiment for an example . If you shoot light ( photons ) through each slit at the same time you will get a series of dark and light lines on a screen which is behind the slits . This is because the photons going through each slit have a wave component and the photon waves going through each slit are in phase or slightly out of phase creating an overlap which we see in our world as light and dark lines . If the photon waves are in phase it is a light line and if they are out of phase it is a dark line. The photons going through the slits are traveling through a quantum world to reach the screen but we don't notice that phenomena from our perspective because of the volume of photons . Let's reduce the photons going toward the slits to one photon every 3 seconds . We still get the same light and dark lines . This happens because the photon travels through the quantum world and although the quantum world hasn't any space to travel through , it does have possibilities or potential outcomes. These potential outcomes or possibilities are equivalent to you choosing the direction you want to travel in our 3 dimensional space .

The photon has these three ( 3 ) possibilities:

1. Goes through slit number 1 .

2. Goes through slit number 2.

3. Misses both slits because nothing is 100 %.

Similarly the photon wave has three possibilities:

1. Goes through both slits.

2. Goes through either slit 1 or 2.

3. Interferes with itself on the screen ( both slits ) or doesn't interfere with itself ( one slit ) .

Here's the most interesting part . The photon wave exists in all its' possibilities . We come along to observe or measure . Our observing or measuring action causes all the quantum possibilities to adjust so that only one possibility remains in our real world .

The Quantum World With Quantum Time

If we accept the view that the quantum world hasn't any physical space as we understand / know it then anything in the quantum world doesn't have to travel through space to go from A to B because space doesn't exist. The quantum world is essentially governed by quantum time which has a bigger role there than as simply a marker in our world . The fun part of our universe is that we can write equations for things that may or may not exist . That is why we have to do experiments to prove / modify theories as well as to see if what the manufactured equation says is true is actually true. In the quantum world run by quantum time we have instantaneous happenings because the quantum world is spaceless meaning there is nothing to travel through to get from A to B. If quantum time is popping up phenomena all over the place and space is non-existent then we are going to have instances of entanglement and superposition when two or more things hit the same spot at the same time . Since we don't have space , we can't have particles or waves which we see in our world as requiring space . We do, however, have a fluctuation / disturbance in quantum time which we can possibly measure mathematically by modifying an equation usually used elsewhere . This is the advantage of our universe . Teleportation / Information sending is a use of quantum time providing we don't entangle or superimpose with something else. The downside is that when we come to read the transmission we interfere with quantum time and create noise .

The Quantum World In A Nutshell

In our everyday universe, we all have to travel through space to get from A to B. Our travel through space essentially involves our making a decision about:

1. Velocity
2. Acceleration
3. Trajectory ( direction ).

The quantum world doesn't require us to travel through space to get from A to B. To get around this problem, the quantum world uses a phenomena called entanglement. Entanglement is basically a reproductive mechanism which reproduces us / information from point A to point B's without travel through space being involved. Since travel through space isn't an option, entanglement reproduces us / information in all directions:

1. Past
2. Present
3. Future

In the quantum world, we can exist in all places at the same time, whereas in our everyday universe, we can only exist in all places at the same time through our imagination. This means that if we can exist in all places at the same time in a quantum world we can choose a preferred location from the locations generated by quantum entanglement, while our other selves choose their locations and proceed on their own paths and adventures.

Existing in all places at the same time, means that we are now subject to probability ( ½ ), possibility ( yes, no, maybe = 1/3rd ) and Likelihood ( 1/9 ( When does Time ( equal to 9 ) kick in ??? )).

Probability, possibility, and likelihood, in the quantum world relies on randomness for a decision. These random happenings in the quantum world appear in our familiar universe as bad or good luck. A probability, possibility and likelihood choice is also instigated as soon as we observe / try to measure the quantum world because we have to use energy in some form to do it.

In summary:

1. Entanglement
2. Probability, Possibility, Likelihood
3. Randomness / outside forces.
