Can Anyone Relate to This?

Can Anyone Relate to This?

Remember I told you that the body is electrically charged and I questioned death? It seems odd that an electrical energy would just cease. Specifically our electrical energy when our organic matter ceases to exist.

I don't think that my hypothesis is nuts.

Thinking about something does not make it so, but making it so comes from thinking about something. ~ Maggie

Quantum Theory:

For nearly one hundred years the idea that light is a wave went essentially unchallenged. This changed in 1900 with Max Planck's studies of the absorption of light by black bodies, that is, objects that do not reflect back any frequency of light. As Planck ran his experiments, he observed that the temperature of a back body is raised and lowered, it emits radiation at various frequencies. He expected the radiation to flow continuously, as one would expect from a wave, but it did not. Instead, it came in discrete batches that behaved like particles. He called these batches "quanta." Einstein, a contemporary of Planck, was intrigued by his discovery, and went on to show mathematically that light is absorbed, as well as radiated, in batches of quanta. Thus, "quantum theory" was born.

Due to Young's earlier experiments, most physicists of Planck's day thought of light as wave. Thinking of light as a particle was more difficult. Although many scientists were uncomfortable with the idea that light could be both a particle and a wave, the idea struck and eventually light "particles" came to be called "photons." If light can act as a particle, would something we expect to act like a particle act like a wave?

Particles:

In Newton's time, the smallest bits of matter know were atoms. Since then, scientists have discovered that atoms are composed of even smaller bits, such as the electron, proton, and neutron. These subatomic bits have classically been viewed as particles, similar to marbles or billiard balls. If we were to substitute electrons for light in Young's experiment, what would happen? If electrons really are particles, the overlapping areas of the third screen will be more heavily hit. When the two-slit experiment was conducted using electrons, however, the electrons created the same sort of interference pattern of light. This remained true even when the electrons were fired one at a time so that they could not interact with each other. Scientists were so confounded by this development that they decided the single electron must be breaking in two, going through both slits at once, and then interfering with itself. To decide this question, a measuring device was put at each slit. As the electrons were fired one at a time, they went through only one slit or the other, just as we would expect form particles. So what happened? The interference pattern on the third screen then ceased to exist! The electrons stopped acting like waves altogether when they were measured. Scientists were left with the conclusion that when we look directly at an electron, it acts like a particle, but when we don't, it acts like a wave.

This paradox was summarized by the scientist Niels Bohr in 1927 in what became known as the "Copenhagen interpretation," now accepted by a majority of physicists around the world. Bohr stated that at the quantum level a particle has no properties unless it is being observed and measured. Particles of matter exist only as potentialities that become fixed, or develop into particles, when they come into contact with a measuring device. The scientist Werner Heisenberg postulated that beneath physical reality is a deeper level filled with what he calls "potentia." At this level, matter does not exist, but only has tendencies to exist, and all possible events–even contradictory ones – reside together in potential. The act of measurement causes one of the potential states to come into being.

Wave Function:

In the early 1900's, a scientist named Louis de Broglie went beyond the issue of the characteristics of light and proposed that all matter has a wave-like characteristic. These wavelike properties can be described as a wave field or wave function. The wave function is not something you can see, nor does it exist in three dimensional space, but its effects can be observed. Every particle of matter has its own wave function, which can be visualized as a "smear," or a representation of all the paths it may take. The scientist Richard Feynman theorized that the potential particle takes all possible paths as its wave moves from point A to point B, so that when the wave reaches point B, it contains information from every path it could have taken to get there. When the particle is observed, however, its wave function collapses and only one path becomes actualized.

Why does one probability get chosen for the particle rather than another? Who or what makes these choices, and at what level are these choices made? Many of the scientists who study the nature of reality theorize that levels of reality exist underneath or parallel to this one and are where these choices are made. If such levels exist, how are they connected, and how is information passed between them?

Bell's Theorem and Non-locality:

In 1964, the scientist John Steward Bell proposed in what is known as Bell's theorem that after two particles meet, they continue to influence each other. The influence is not caused by nuclear forces, gravity, or electromagnetism, but exists because each particle leave a part of itself with the other, thus allowing them to communicate instantaneously. What do they leave? Not a piece of matter, but a piece of information. Particles are less like balls of stuff and more like information packets. Instantaneous communication is theoretically not possible in a universe limited by the speed of light, so Bell proposed that his connection between particles occurs outside of the space-time. His theory was later proven by laboratory experiment, and instantaneous communication between particles, also called "non-locality," became a provable fact.

Already we have moved quite a distance from Newton. Instead of an empty three-dimensional spaced filled with billiard-ball-like pieces of matter, quantum physics portrays a universe that acts as a seamless whole, where each part communicates instantaneously with every other part, and is filled with waves of information that arise from levels outside of space-time. In a Newtonian world, the whole is the sum of the parts. In a quantum world, the whole oversees, and perhaps even creates, the parts. ~ May 25, 2007 @ 5:00 p.m.

Impassioned

If you want to view me as nuts, be my guest!
Behind any good artist, poet, philosopher, inventor, musician, scientist, or visionary is passion. It is a fuel by which the imagination captures the surroundings and makes something of it. Perhaps the imagination tries to make sense or nonsense of that which not understood or is understood too well.

Drive (from fuel) can come in many forms. It can come from simple things such as looking at the clouds and seeing faces or diagrams and questioning it. Everything has a purpose and in an inquisitive mind maybe answers can be found amongst the various other questions that spring forth.

Being a visual person, imagine if you will an actual tree, family tree, or database linkage system. You start with one as the initial focal point. Example: YOU. What will happen next is you have two that you stem from and they have two and so on and so on and so on. Exploration is the same thing. You start with one factor and if the passion drives you, you will explore in detail that which you want to know. Example: Life.

When doing this, explore Newton's theory of relativity, use laws of economics, and Socratic method. You will discover that everything is intertwined and related and that everything needs contrast. You will find that even with an answer, there is a question or an opposite and that all things are possible. Note that your time is 100 percent and that if you focus in any specific area (tunnel vision), your other areas will suffer. Thus, in order to maintain balance, scatter your thoughts about. See how patterns form from things that may not seem obvious.

Creation Alpha Omega Alpha (zeros, circles, and eights):
It begins with a thought and is brought about by a process. Who is to say that we are not our own gods? We are like the earth and our components are approximately the same. Our matter is organic, but we are charged electrically. When one experiences heart stoppage, the use of shock brings us back to life. (Explore Mary Shelley and Frankenstein.) Brain waves are now used to determine death rather than heart stoppage. The brain is also electrically charged and uses neurotransmitters to make the body function. Example: Autonomic and Somatic functions. If one were to die, reflexes that would normally occur via a somatic function can be had via electric current to create animation of the human body. If one could jar an electric current where would it go upon release? I ask this question as I question death. Could it be said that our CURRENT leaves this plain for another? ~ Maggie ~ May 23, 2007 @ 1:07 p.m.
