Relativity and Imaginary Time

Rodney Bartlett

This article takes the form of 3 microarticles. They are 1) Relativity says science overvalues experiments, 2) Time dilation to co-moving and non-comoving observers and 3) EXPLORING VENUS, MARS, ETC BY ENTANGLING THEM WITH EARTH. Each microarticle was originally written to stand alone, but I decided they should be combined into one article. Everybody (even including Nobel-winning physicists) seems to have a preference for experiment instead of theory. This reminds me of a movie I saw about Alexander the Great. Aristotle (played by Christopher Plummer) was teaching the young Alexander and said Greeks use their minds while rely on their senses, and what they can see and hear etc. While science acknowledges the importance of theory and mind, it appears to be following Aristotle's other races when it declares that observation and experiment always have the last word. This is justified by saying the ancient Greeks made mistakes because they didn't always rely enough on mathematics and experiment. However, it's well known that experimenters make mistakes too - from the days of Galileo to the recent experiments with faster-than-light neutrinos, and with the cosmic microwave background. This article hopes to plant a seed that will grow into a science which doesn't automatically assume observation and experiment must always have the last word. The entire universe, along with all of the past and present and future, appears to be becoming unified by our science into one entity/event. Consider the 19th century's union of electricity and magnetism into the one force of electromagnetism (light, and every type of radiation, are forms of this). Consider the unifying attempts of Einstein's Unified Field Theory, as well as the union of space and time into space-time, in the 20th century - and of physics' subatomic String Theory and Theory of Everything in the 21st century. A vital player in this trend is quantum mechanics, with its experimentally verified quantum entanglement that says particles can affect each regardless of distance in space-time. The way things are going, the mathematics used on Earth will end up being revised. After all, it's based on the limited perceptions of our senses and the idea that a virtually unlimited set of separate observations and experiments can be made ie it says 1+1=2. But if absolutely everything is actually a single thing/event, 1+1 will have no choice but to equal 1.

Cognition

Partha Ghose, Sudip Patra

As an interpretation of quantum mechanics, QBism has also accepted cognition as a central tenet that allows the Born rule of quantum mechanics to be viewed as a ‘normative rule’ rather than a natural law. According to the Britannica Online Encyclopedia , ‘Cognition includes all conscious and unconscious processes by which knowledge is accumulated, such as perceiving, recognizing, conceiving, and reasoning’. The main types of cognitive processes are attention, language, learning, memory and thought. Neuroscience deals mainly with the brain architecture and brain phenomena like neuron firings that accompany cognitive processes. Its main tools are functional magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography. The influence of the body on the mind and cognition was recognized thousands of years ago in India, resulting in yoga practices coupled with meditation for mind control. Contextuality-complementarity seems to be a universal principle, but its exact meaning or the way in which we measure them varies in subtle ways between quantum physics and cognition.
