Looped Light on Dark Energy

Abstract

We give a mathematical golden mean distribution based probabilistic confirmation of a recent spectacular experiment with light. The experiment in question is a three-slit variant of the well known two-slit set up of quantum mechanics. The outcome of the sophisticated experiment revealed the looped path of light on the quantum scale and consequently the Peano-Hilbert geometry of spacetime, ergo its fractal-Cantorian nature. The mathematics used here on the other hand is the remarkably simple and insightful golden mean probability distribution known from a famous paradox known in social sciences as the voter paradox.

NONCOMMUTATIVE GEOMETRY, NEGATIVE PROBABILITIES AND CANTORIAN-FRACTAL SPACETIME

Carlos Castro

A straightforward explanation of the Young's two-slit experiment of a quantum particle is obtained within the framework of the Noncommutative Geometric associated with El Naschie's Cantorian-Fractal transfinite Spacetime continuum.

Three experiments

Alexander E. Wendt

Quantum theory is a mathematical formalism that allows physicists to predict the probability of observing different outcomes in experiments on sub-atomic systems. It has been tested more rigorously than any theory in science, and has never been wrong. However, strictly speaking it does not “explain” the behavior of sub-atomic systems, since it does not propose a mechanism to account for it. It tells us that they will behave in certain ways, but not why . Thus, quantum mechanics is not a theory in the sense familiar to social scientists, namely a body of laws that explains some part of reality. The explanatory question is the subject of the interpretive debates that surround the theory, not of the theory per se. That said, the literature routinely refers to quantum mechanics as a theory, and I shall use the terms interchangeably below. A common way to introduce quantum theory is through some of the key experiments that have confirmed its predictions. In this chapter I describe three of the most well-known: the Two-Slit Experiment, the Bell Experiments, and the Delayed-Choice Experiment. While painting the same overall picture, each reveals distinct features of the quantum realm. While their interpretation is contested, here I will do my best to present just the theory's findings, saving interpretive questions for later. The Two-Slit Experiment This experiment actually had its origins long before the quantum revolution. One of the most controversial questions in classical physics was whether light was made of particles or waves. In keeping with his atomistic worldview, Newton favored the particle or “corpuscular” theory of light, which was the majority view among physicists through the eighteenth century. However, in 1801 Thomas Young performed an experiment that seemed to prove conclusively that the wave theory was correct. In his experiment, Young set up a light source behind an opaque screen with one small opening or slit, through which the light passed in a concentrated beam.

A New Variant on Young’s Double-slit Experiment and Wheeler’s Delayed Choice Experiment

Yuan Kai

Based on the basic version of the Double-slit experiment, a coherent light source, such as a laser beam, illuminates a plate pierced by two parallel slits, and the light passing through the slits is observed on a screen behind the plate.The wave nature of light causes the light waves passing through the two slits to interfere, producing bright and dark bands on the screen — a result that would not be expected if light consisted of classical particles. Our new variant is as below: We shut one of the two parallel slits once the light passed the slits. Or we keep the two slits shutting and opening randomly in high speed. We believe this variant experiment could lead to a farther fundamental understanding of the Quantum Mechanics.

Making Sense of Light and the Quantum by an Experiment on an Isolated Emergent Fractal

Blair Macdonald

Making sense of the nearly 100-hundred-year-old quantum nature of light and matter, with its — to name a few — wave-particle duality, measurement problem, and entanglement ‘spooky action at the distance’ — remains the greatest questions to physics. Since the 1980s, fractal geometry, a new and exciting field of mathematics — that the fathers of quantum mechanics did not have and has not been tested for quantum properties — has developed. Can the isolated fractal explain the quantum? An experiment was conducted on a simple — but isolated — fractal testing whether the geometry of fractals corresponds to quantum enigmas. It was found the isolated fractal emerges by a duality of propagation — of an oscillating sinusoidal wave — of ‘bits’ — of information — iterating in a superposition of time, scale, and symmetry, with a possible constant speed, demonstrating all the hypothesised. The quantum ‘measurement problem’ was addressed as being a problem of isolated scale-invariant fractals — or fractal landscapes — where position is only ‘known’ when additional (fractal) information is added — which ‘equally’ gives rise to a (quantum-like) ‘uncertainty’ problem. Also, quantum entanglement and other quantum features were explained by the fractal model. Consequences of the model were discussed, notably to its relevance to the nature of light (the speed of it etc.), the behaviour of the atom, time, knowledge and our reality, and the model’s direct inextricable connection with cosmological observations and conjectures. Finally, it was concluded that the model is preliminary but fundamental.

Quantum Entanglement as a Consequence of a Cantorian Micro Spacetime Geometry

Mohamed Saladin El Naschie

Building upon the pioneering work of J. Bell [1] and an incredible result due to L. Hardy [2] it was shown that the probability of quantum entanglement of two particles is a maximum of 9.0169945 percent [2]. This happens to be exactly the golden mean to the power of five (?5) [3-7]. Although it has gone largely unnoticed for a long time, this result was essentially established independently in a much wider context by the present author almost two decades ago [3-6]. The present work gives two fundamentally different derivations of Hardy’s beautiful result leading to precisely the same general conclusion, namely that by virtue of the zero measure of the underlying Cantorian-fractal spacetime geometry the notion of spatial separability in quantum physics is devoid of any meaning [7]. The first derivation is purely logical and uses a probability theory which combines the discrete with the continuum. The second derivation is purely geometrical and topological using the fundamental equations of a theory developed by the author and his collaborators frequently referred to as E-infinity or Cantorian spacetime theory [3-7].

Shedding light (and dark) on quantum probabilities

Steven K. Blau

A tenet of quantum mechanics is, in principle, testable with the double-slit experiment, thanks to classically nonsensical light paths. A tenet of quantum mechanics is, in principle, testable with the double-slit experiment, thanks to classically nonsensical light paths.
