>>684758732

I don't think that physics or math has given me any sort of profound insights in my everyday life. Despite what you may hear in cool science documentaries, being a physicist doesn't dramatically change my worldview.

Being heavily exposed to so much academia has given me a distaste for bullshit and a greater willingness to believe people around me can be intelligent even if they have extremely different beliefs than I do (political, religious, etc).

Every now and then though, it is cool to think about how we are probably just a vector in a big ole Hilbert space describing our multiverse. Or how the world around us has an arrow of time somehow...

Those two questions are just too distinct.

The "quantum realm":

Everything in the universe is described by quantum mechanics. This means that everything is a vector in a Hilbert space. Vectors in the Hilbert space move evolve in a way described by Schrodinger's equation.


Dark energy: energy that cannot dilute. It's the energy of the vacuum. If you double the size of space, there will be twice as much dark energy. Our universe has a lot of it.

I don't want to give away my identity so I can't be too specific. I'll tell you some related things.

Despite what everyone seems to think, we actually are doing a good job of learning more about quantum gravity. One theory where we are really good at quantum gravity is the AdS/CFT correspondence. String theory in a certain kind of spacetime (AdS) is apparently the same thing as a certain kind of quantum system (CFT) that we are very knowledgeable about. The interesting thing is that the CFT lives in one less dimension than the string theory does. Also, string theory has gravity and the CFT doesn't.

This is called holography. We are pretty sure that quantum gravity is holographic in general. The universe we live in probably has a redundant dimension. I study this kind of holography.

Not a trained physicist here.
One time while traveling through the country I had an idea about quantum time.

What if time is a force carried by a carrier particle (let's call it chronon boson) which every elementary particle emits. Said force carrier travels at the speed of light, so if another particle would travel at the speed of light it wouldn't be able be able to interact with the chronon bosons, since they'd be running parallel. If a particle were traveling faster than light, it would "collide" with chronon bosons that were each time older, thus experiencing a motion through time backwards. and obviously the faster a particle traveled at less than the speed of light it would "collide" with less chronon bosons thus experiencing less time.

Is this a worthy idea or postulate or just random bullshit?

Google tesserect, hypercube, and hypersphere, generally the best for visualizing 4d. Also look into hyperbolic trig and the geometry of space time

>>684761159
There are many ways to answer this question (but time is definitely not right >>684761239 ).

A cosmologist would say that it's an ill-defined question. The universe is infinitely big, and infinity*2 = infinity so why must we be expanding into something?

However, a more fun answer (which is actually consistent with the one above) is that we are a universe inside of a bubble that is expanding at the speed of light in a soup of vacuum energy (aka dark energy). There are many such bubbles, but they rarely hit each other because the stuff they are expanding in causes the bubbles to fly away from each other at an accelerating rate. This idea is called the eternally inflating multiverse.

Quantum mechanics has nothing to do with this. In general, if you choose to take physics seriously (as I do), you pretty much conclude that your brain is just another physical system evolving under the usual laws (a pretty cool one though). In this sense, all of physics "opposes" free will. But it doesn't matter as far as I'm concerned and doesn't keep me up or anything.

You, being such a fag, decide to slam your dick into my asshole at almost the speed of light, so I note that your tiny penis is a lorentz contracted chode . Ironically, from your point of view, my ass is approaching you at enormous speed and your dick is slightly less short.

Psychologist here.

Don't know why on earth youd take that question to a physicist.

Free will is very grey. Mostly you operate on autopilot according to your personality. If free will was as powerful as everyone claims it is and acts like it is, no one would have distinct persistent personality traits and thinking strategies.

Most of what you do is an automatic reaction to external or internal stimuli based on your personality, which is influenced a lot by genetics, and environment. The amount of which has more pull isn't known. But they both play huge roles. (Genetics are huge. Laymen do not like this concept much..)

"Free will" is part of the executive functions located in the pre frontal cortex. It's responsible for all kinds of nifty higher thinking being tricks.

Think of any time you really didnt want to do something and did it anyway, you developed a brand new habit (like regularly doing dishes right away or going to the gym) or consciously, deliberately tried to act outside of your personality.

That's your free will. You should know from experience, it's a very hard system to maintain for prolonged periods of time before you default back into your regular habits with (hopefully) newer better ones.

This is also why it's very unfair to tell people "you should just.... or "you should have done this.." When they complain about something that's clearly their fault. They were just on autopilot doing what they do, the same way you do.

TL;Dr. Free will is real. It's nothing at all what you think it is. Biblical concept of free will is not real at all.

Stephen Hawking laid the ground for most of my work, But the truth is that he is finally starting to fall off his game. His latest papers have not been groundbreaking (despite media attention). Although it is admirable that he continues to propose original ideas at his age and in his condition.

>>684767335

The multiverse is very theoretical and definitely not observed. However, like you say, things don't seem to work without it. There's a lot of really really nice things in our universe. Atomic and nuclear forces are ideal for having a big periodic table. The dark energy is 120 orders of magnitude smaller than what one might expect, which allowed galaxies to form. Everything is just so ideal that it's been easier to explain in the context of theories that predict a multiverse than anything else. Fortunately, the top candidate for a "complete theory" in physics, string theory, appears to predict a multiverse.

But no, we haven't directly observed it. Nor is there any observational evidence against it yet.

What would happen if a black hole collided with a neutron star, provided that they have equal mass?

OP here.

I think about n dimensional transformations roughly every other day. I think about manifolds literally every day. Our universe is a 4 dimensional manifold. It has to be a manifold because it isn't shaped as nicely as a flat surface. The curvature of our manifold is what causes gravity. Technically these kinds of curved manifolds are called pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.

I don't like the debate about math being created vs discovered. As it so happens, mathematicians regularly create and discover mathematics.

>>684760964
>Everything in the universe is described by quantum mechanics. This means that everything is a vector in a Hilbert space.
The second sentence is ontological commitment that goes beyond the physics into the realm of metaphysics.
The most physicists can claim is, that everything observable can be predicted by QM model of non-observable vectors in Hilbert space. But physics cannot make ontological statement that there are (as exist) vectors in Hilbert space.

>>684769264

OP here

I'm not sure to what extent the granularity of quanta relates to the holographic principle, but I do think that the holographic principle is probably correct in some form. We are still working on it. I expect that the fundamental theory of the universe is both quantum mechanical and holographic in its description of gravity.

Color exists insofar as wavelengths exist! I could say that it's just the way that the brain interprets wavelength and that's fine.

Space is probably not a true vacuum. We might decay!

It's a research position. Academia doesn't mean teaching focused jobs. I'm going for literally the most advanced jobs in all of theoretical physics.

>>684770790

Nope

Will there ever be a computer that already has all possible calculations already performed, which will give insta-answers to questions?

If not, why not?

You need to stop thinking that watching BBC horizon documentaries makes you in any way qualified to have an opinion on theoretical physics.

But being called a generic insult that has been spouted in this site millions of times doesn't hurt. Why would I attack you without any intention of harm? That's the kind of mediocre attitude that has you wasting your life in this website with broken aspirations and envying people that actually have accomplished stuff like OP.

Does electricity travel at the speed of light through a cable, or do the electrons just move slowly from atom to atom along the material until they "reach" their destination? (say... the TV.)

OP here. Last answer before I sleep.

What is a multi universe

The place we live in

What is inside a black hole?

No one knows for sure if there even is an inside of a black hole. There's a major ongoing debate called the "firewall paradox"

Are we going to die when a big spooky blackhole came to us

No it'll only come for you

What is a multi universe

It was actually "Particle physics for non-physicists" that inspired that idea. I in way believe I'm qualified, it's just an idea that I had, thus me asking OP, someone that appears to be qualified, if it's worth anything.

Similarly I do not believe you are qualified to dismiss it.

So you mean public sector more than academia.
Also what topic, last I heard Magneto-hydrodynamics is at the forefront. Literally just checked out the Frankenstein dynamo project that was started by Sterling Colgate today, First one to ever get a steady 8 fold increase from the seed magnetic field and the bloody thing's made of car parts.

You are measuring my life against the life of another individual, both of which you do not know.

Why should my aspirations be the same as anyone else's, or how do you know I haven't accomplished anything in my life to begin with?

I have a bs in astrophysics numbnuts, I was talking about math. There's a theorem which was proven that states that the axioms in a system cannot fully describe the properties of that system without the use of axioms unconstrained by that system. In other words for a physical reality it would require information from outside the universe to fully describe the universe.

I'm a cat from universe 34Γ007 with an interest in theoretical physics. In this universe humans killed themselves through biological warfare which gave us the opportunity to work on real science without them holding us back. We developed inter-universal travel and colonized a small cluster in the multiverse. We recently found this universe and are assessing the opportunities held within it.

If you have a rounded smooth rock wipe with that and store it in a tighlt wrapped bag, otherwise leave a chunk of crap in a bag until it dries and wipe with that, returning it to the bag to dry and indefinitely producing an ass scrub worthy of your position.
