Does the quantum wave function represent reality?

Does the quantum wave function represent reality? | Science News | Scoop.it

As Colbeck and Renner explain in their paper published in Physical Review Letters, there are two prominent interpretations of the wave function dating back to its origins in the 1920s. In one view, the wave function corresponds to an element of reality that objectively exists whether or not an observer is measuring it. In an alternative view, the wave function does not represent reality but instead represents an observer's subjective state of knowledge about some underlying reality.

Quantum physics mimics spooky action into the past

Quantum physics mimics spooky action into the past | Science News | Scoop.it

Physicists have, for the first time, demonstrated in an experiment that the decision whether two particles were in an entangled or in a separable quantum state can be made even after these particles have been measured and may no longer exist.

If God were to simulate reality, would he prefer it quantum?

If God were to simulate reality, would he prefer it quantum? | Science News | Scoop.it

To we who live in the twenty first century, whose lives are enmeshed in various information processors, the eventual plausibility of the Matrix does not appear as radical as it once did. One by one, the photos we view and the mail we send, have been converted to digital form. Common questions, such as, “How many megabytes does that song take up?" reflect a society that is becoming increasingly accepting of the idea that the observable qualities of every object can be represented by bits, and physical processes by how they manipulate these bits. Some scientists have even gone as far as to speculate we could live within a giant information processor, a giant ‘Matrix’, programmed to simulate the laws of physics we know.

How the alphabet of data processing is growing: Research team generates flying 'qubits' | Science News | Scoop.it
The alphabet of data processing could include more elements than the '0' and '1' in future. An international research team has achieved a new kind of bit with single electrons, called quantum bits, or qubits.

Scientists score 1 more victory over uncertainty in quantum physics measurements

Uncertainty affects the accuracy with which measurements can be made in quantum physics. To reduce this uncertainty, physicists have learned to "squeeze" certain measurements.

Quarks make up all matter, but have never been seen by themselves. And they have "flavors" and "colors" — though neither term has any relevance to what they actually do.

Why Science Can't Explain Why There's Something Rather than Nothing

Why Science Can't Explain Why There's Something Rather than Nothing | Science News | Scoop.it

New revelations in quantum physics suggest that our conception of nothingness—a vaccuum in which no matter exists—does not really correspond to reality. "According to the probabilistic dictates of quantum field theory, even an apparently perfect vacuum seethes with particles and antiparticles popping into and out of existence."
