A Deleuzean Move June 24, 2012 § Leave a comment It is probably one of the main surprises in the course of growing up as a human that in the experience of consciousness we may meet things like unresolvable contradictions, thoughts that are incommensurable, thoughts that lead into contradictions or paradoxes, or thou...

Heat equation From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Redirected from Heat diffusion) Jump to: navigation, search In this example, the heat equation in two dimensions predicts that if one area of an otherwise cool metal plate has been heated, say with a torch, over time the temperature of that area will gradually dec...

A Single 3N-Dimensional Universe: Splitting vs. Decoherence A common way of viewing Everettian quantum mechanics is to say that in an act of measurement, the universe splits into two. There is a world in which the electron has x-spin up, the pointer points to “x-spin up,” and we believe the electron has x-spin up. The...

Take the 2-minute tour × I'm an undergraduate mathematics student trying to understand some quantum mechanics, but I'm having a hard time understanding what is the status of the Schrödinger equation. In some places I've read that it's just a postulate. At least, that's how I interpret e.g. the following quote: (fro...

Take the 2-minute tour × The uncertainty principle (UP) comes up in engineering and physics, but it is a mathematical idea. An old text describes it as "reciprocal spreading." If $f$ is a well-behaved function, the UP might be expressed as $W(f)W(\hat{f}) \geq k$, where $k$ is some constant. If $g$ is a Gaussian, we g...

Will the real god God please stand up? There are many reasons why I’m not retired, but one of the bigger ones is that I haven’t figured out yet how to get at least a quarter (if not a dollar bill) from every person who’s ever asked me how I can believe in “a god or gods” in an age of “science” and “reason”. The questi...

Take the 2-minute tour × I am basically a Computer Programmer, but Physics has always fascinated and often baffled me. I have tried to understand probability density in Quantum Mechanics for many many years. What I understood is that Probability amplitude is the square root of the probability of finding an electron a...

Dismiss Notice Join Physics Forums Today! Measuring angular momentum in atomic systems 1. Oct 30, 2008 #1 Perhaps rather an elementary question, but I can't find a clear answer in my textbooks: Would I be right in thinking that we never actually measure directly the angular momentum of atomic systems, but ...
