Correlations and coherence: an experimental proposal

I argue that a dual-aspect theory of consciousness, associated with a particular class of quantum states, can provide a consistent account of consciousness. I illustrate this with the use of coherent states as this class. The proposal meets Chalmers ’ requirements of allowing a structural correspondence between consciousness and its physical correlate. It provides a means for consciousness to have an effect on the world (it is not an epiphenomenon, and can thus be selected by evolution) in a way that supplements and completes conventional physics, rather than interfering with it. I draw on the work of Hameroff and Penrose to explain the consistency of this proposal with decoherence, while adding details to this work. The proposal is open to extensive further research at both theoretical and experimental levels.

We provide experimental proposals for coherent communication with linear optics. The first proposal suggests a linear-optical scheme for coherent superdense coding. The second proposal gives a linear-optical coherent teleportation scheme.

Description This preprint presents the QRUM Multi-Modal Quantum Perturbation Detection Architecture (QMQPDA), a phenomenological experimental framework designed to investigate ultraweak perturbative signatures using multiple independent precision sensing technologies. Rather than proposing a new fundamental interaction or replacing established physical theories, the framework explores whether resonance, phase, frequency, coherence, and timing measurements may provide experimentally testable observational responses under highly coherent conditions. The proposed architecture combines superconducting microwave resonators, atom interferometers, optical atomic clocks, cryogenic resonators, SQUID magnetometers, environmental monitoring, and statistical multi-channel correlation analysis into a unified precision-measurement platform. The work is intended as a conceptual and experimentally testable research framework. The proposed architecture remains hypothetical and requires future experimental validation.
