Refuting the refutations of the Wigner-Neumann interpretation in quantum mechanics
Refuting the refutations of the Wigner-Neumann interpretation in quantum mechanics Spyridon Kakos1 1 phD, National Technical University of Athens Athens, Greece, August 2024 Abstract One of the most controversial interpretations in quantum mechanics is the Wigner-Neumann interpretation, according to which the superstitions collapse only when a conscious observer observes the quantum system. In general, there…

Quantum cognition… Quantum cosmos… Classical humans…
By examining our minds at a quantum level, we change them, and by changing them, we change the reality that shapes them. At least this is what the theory of quantum cognition says about what thinking is all about. (1) A weird idea. But not less weird than quantum mechanics itself. We constantly think. And…

Quantum… time? Quantum… cosmos?!
An international group of physicists led by Stevens Institute of Technology, University of Vienna and University of Queensland reveal the quantum properties of time, whereby the flow of time doesn't observe a straight arrow forward, but one where cause and effect can co-exist both in the forward and backward direction. To show this scenario, researchers…

N-problems… Understanding nothing…
Physicists are proposing a new model that could demonstrate the supremacy of quantum computers over classical supercomputers in solving optimization problems. They demonstrate that just a few quantum particles would be sufficient to solve the mathematically difficult N-queens problem in chess even for large chess boards. (1) Solving problems with less. Reaching at the end…

Going back in time… With no change…
We cannot reverse the arrow of time any more than we can erase all our wrinkles or restore a shattered teacup to its original form. Or can we? An international team of scientists led by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory managed to return a computer briefly to the past. To achieve…
