The possible states consist of all interactions between objects, including past, future and possible interactions. The theory posits a non-electromagnetic model of change in which change propagates without reference to space-time. The theory delivers verifiable predictions and is generally consistent with quantum theory. It offers the prospect of nonlocal connections between objects and change that is not constrained by conservation laws. The value of the concept as a basis for technology development depends upon the ability to manipulate the possible states, specifically to produce coherence in selected collections of states. An experiment is devised in which a coherent state path is created between the experimental components and loaded through interaction with non-coherent states. Discharge of coherence results in a burst of synchronistic events compatible with theoretical expectations. The experiment validates a specific control strategy and yields a large timewise anomaly. The results shed light on a potential sentient intelligence and upon the development of coherence in the possible states and enable a major advance in the control of change.
Ideal measurements in quantum mechanics can be described formally as instantaneous changes of the state vector or, more generally, of the density matrix
W. By its lack of covariance, this formalism is not very adequate for relativistic quantum theories such as local field theory. For the latter, we propose a modified formalism, according to which a field measurement in a space-time region
C changes the field state
W in the future and side cone of
C. This proposal is justified by physical considerations.
