A Set-Theoretic Metaphysics for Wavefunction

Paul Tappenden

Set theory brought revolution to philosophy of mathematics and it can bring revolution to philosophy of physics too. All that stands in the way is the intuition that sets of physical objects cannot themselves be physical objects, which appears to derive from the ubiquitous assumption that it is possible for there to exist numerically distinct observers in qualitatively identical cognitive states. Overturning that assumption allows construing the wavefunction of an elementary particle as being a set of elemental particles with definite properties. A free electron in an observers universe is a set of elemental electrons on different trajectories, each in an elemental parallel universe. For any region in an observers environment which includes part of the environmental electrons wavefunction there is a subset of elemental electrons located in parallel elemental regions. The measure of that subset on the set which is the environmental electron is the absolute square of quantum amplitude for the environmental region. Decoherence induces Everettian branching as the partitioning of wavefunction into subsets whose measures are the objective probabilities of quasi-classical events within branches. Phase arises through interactions between elemental universes, as with Many Interacting Worlds theory, the difference being that an observers environment is constituted by a set of worlds. That environment contains superpositions as sets of elemental particle configurations.

Classical Physics Versus Quantum Physics: an Overview

Hardev Singh Virk

Newtonian mechanics is the foundation of Classical Physics. Newton’s mechanics, Thermodynamics, Wave theory of Optics and Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory belong to regime of Classical Physics and can be used to explain a wide range of phenomena in the Universe at macroscopic scale. These theories fail spectacularly when applied to phenomenain the atomic and nuclear regime, for example, proton-atom scattering or the flow of electrons in a semiconductor. Quantum mechanics is the most successful scientific theory that has ever been created and it has completely changed our view of the world. The failure of Classical Physics was highlighted by black body radiation and photoelectric effect. Max Planck and Albert Einstein provided explanations of both phenomena based on quantum hypothesis and are thus considered founders of Quantum Physics. The origin of quantum mechanics goes back to the mid-1920s.It was formulated first as matrix mechanics by Werner Heisenberg, Max Born and Pascual Jordan; then as wave mechanics by Louis de Broglie and Erwin Schrödinger; and later on asquantum statistics of subatomic particles by Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein. Combining relativistic mechanics with quantum mechanics, Dirac formulated his relativistic quantum mechanics during 1930s. Uncertainty Principle is thecornerstone of Quantum Physics. The role of randomness in microscopic physical processes shatters the myth that the universe is deterministic. Quantum world is unpredictable in the classical sense and demolishes the idea of an objective universe. The Copenhagen interpretation remains the quantum mechanical formalism that is currently most widely accepted amongst physicists.Quantum theories support cosmic spirit pervading the cosmos and inter – relationship of individuals in the world society. Quantum philosophy is holistic and is going to revolutionize our world-view.

The Ultimate Reality in the Universe: A Study on the Views of Quantum Physics and Vedanta Philosophy

Jatindranath Gain

The majority of quantum mechanics' founding fathers were sensitive to the philosophical implications of quantum mechanics. The theories of relativity developed by Einstein also turned out to have philosophical implications. Although quantum physics could seem enigmatic, it explains everything in our environment, whether we are aware of it or not. Using the abilities of quantum physics results in the expansion of innovative technologies, both for use now and maybe in the future. Everything is explained by quantum physics, which provides the greatest description we currently have of the nature of the particles in the cosmos. The efforts to explain the universe in terms of quantum physics, which regulates the behaviour of the subatomic, microscopic world, are presented in Quantum Universe. It shows a revolution in quantum physics as well as a quantum leap in our understanding of the universe's mystery and beauty. Quantum physics is trying to find a common singularity for all objects. They are trying to discover the 'Theory of Everything, that will explain everything in this universe. Vedanta and Quantum Physics both are looking for the same underlying reality and searching for the absolute truth in the universe, though their approach to searching is different. This paper will attempt to concentrate on the perspectives of Quantum Physics & Advaita Vedanta about the ultimate reality in the universe, the nature of consciousness.
