Plato and Quantum Physics Part 2

Plato and Quantum Physics Part 2 In Part 1 of this article discussed the role of observer in determining the outcome of the measurement or observation, which was the main point of the quotation from Plato? S statement. It also mentions how the mathematical formulation of quantum physics presents serious difficulties to the extent that happened with the results that it seemed absurd. A well-known example is known as the paradox of Schrödinger? S cat.Edwin Schrödinger with Weer Heisenberg was the main architect of quantum mechanics. In 1935 he devised an experiment designed to illustrate the ambiguity associated with the status of a first point. Imagine a cat in a sealed container containing a vial of poisonous gas and a mechanical hammer. The hammer is activated by a radioactive material with a Geiger counter, and once activated, can break the vial to release the gas. Radioactive disintegration of atoms and the probability of decay can be accurately calculated according to the quantum mechanical rules. Suppose that the probability that the hammer is activated After thirty minutes is fifty percent. Then, after thirty minutes, the probability that the cat is dead is fifty percent, but the probability that? S is to be alive fifty percent.When the box is opened after an hour, the observer is the cat is alive or dead. But before the observation, according to quantum mechanics the cat is alive and half dead one hundred and fifty, which is physically absurd. In quantum mechanics, however, a system may be in different states, each with a certain probability. This is known as a superposition of states. It 'only through the observation that the reduction of the carrier state (wave function collapse) occurs. Measurements in quantum mechanics is the human conscience, which causes the collapse of the wave function. Thus, in Copenhagen, the mathematical formulation of interpretation must be supplemented by natural philosophy so that any sense.The question what is real and what is unreal belong to the sphere of philosophy. Our perception of the outside world is what the mind of the projects after the processing of information provided by the senses. This is the perception of reality, while the exteal world is objective reality. But this goal, the reality is constantly changing and depends on something else that can be called the final reality. The perception of objective reality and represent? What is observed? and, finally, is the reality? What is this?. Plato? s words are simply an alteative expression of the emergence of quantum physics, where there is no observer, there is a system of observation y. What is a set of possibilities and potential and all is fair in dealing with other subatomic physics sense.Quantum the world that is inaccessible to sensory perception. In the macroscopic physical world as an observer must be seen from a different perspective. When the observer can not see an object that does not cease to exist. The star, who was watching, still in the sky, even if you stop looking. But is not the same star looked before, but like everything else, is constantly evolving. The point here is that the space-time continuum are not objects, but only events. If an event is not observed, there is no way to determine if they actually occurred or not. This uncertainty makes the reality of the case question.Dharmbir Rai Sharma is a retired professor of electrical engineering and physics background. He received his M.S. degree in physics in India and doctorate in electrical engineering from Coell University. He has taught in several universities here in Brazil, where he spent some time. He maintains a website devoted to philosophy and science.
