Book excerpt: The book presents a mathematical answer to the ancient philosophical question "How mind is related to matter". It proves that in the mathematical world, the bridge from matter to mind requires extension and modification of quantum physics. The proposed dynamical model that captures behaviour of living things is based upon the extension of the First Principles of classical physics to include the phenomenological behaviour of living systems, i.e. to develop a new mathematical formalism within the framework of classical dynamics that would allow one to capture the specific properties of natural or artificial living systems. The proposed mathematical formalism is quantum-inspired. It is based upon coupling the classical dynamical system representing the motor dynamics with the corresponding Liouville equation describing the evolution of initial uncertainties in terms of the probability density and representing the mental dynamics. Along with the main objective, the book addresses fundamental departures from classical views on some unsolved problems in quantum mechanics. By moving from the Schrödinger to the Madelung equation, it demonstrates that randomness in quantum mechanics has the same mathematical origin as that in turbulence and chaos. It illuminates the origin of entanglement and interference of probabilities. These results are reinforced by similar properties of L-particle that are based upon a modification of the Madelung equation. Therefore, the model of L-particle fits well into the mathematical formalism of modern physics, and that rouses a belief that L-particle is not only a mathematical abstraction, but a reality as well.

Download or read book Life as No One Knows It written by Sara Imari Walker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intriguing new scientific theory that explains what life is and how it emerges. What is life? This is among the most difficult open problems in science, right up there with the nature of consciousness and the existence of matter. All the definitions we have fall short. None help us understand how life originates or the full range of possibilities for what life on other planets might look like. In Life as No One Knows It, physicist and astrobiologist Sara Imari Walker argues that solving the origin of life requires radical new thinking and an experimentally testable theory for what life is. This is an urgent issue for efforts to make life from scratch in laboratories here on Earth and missions searching for life on other planets. Walker proposes a new paradigm for understanding what physics encompasses and what we recognize as life. She invites us into a world of maverick scientists working without a map, seeking not just answers but better ways to formulate the biggest questions we have about the universe. The book culminates with the bold proposal of a new theory for identifying and classifying life, one that applies not just to biological life on Earth but to any instance of life in the universe. Rigorous, accessible, and vital, Life as No One Knows It celebrates the mystery of life and the explanatory power of physics.

Download or read book Materials Matter Particles written by Michael M. Woolfson and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the history of ideas about the nature of matter and also the way that mankind has used material resources that the world offers. Starting with the ideas of ancient civilizations that air, earth, fire and water were the basic ingredients of all matter, it traces the development of the science of chemistry beginning within the ranks of the alchemists. First, the idea of elements grew and then the atomic nature of matter was verified. Physicists had entered the scene, showing the nature of atoms in terms of fundamental particles and then introducing the concept of wave-particle duality that altered the basic concepts of what matter was. Finally the physicists discovered a panoply of fundamental particles, some observed within atom-smashing machines and the existence of others merely postulated.In parallel with the above there is a description of various kinds of matter as it affects everyday life ? including the nature of matter associated with life itself. The way that early man used the materials directly given by nature, such as stone, wood and animal skins, is followed by the use of materials requiring some process to be employed ? e.g. metals which include bronze and also concrete. Some important modern materials are discussed, such as synthetic fibres and plastics and semiconductors, and potentially important future products from new developments in nanotechnology.
Download or read book Every Life Is on Fire written by Jeremy England and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preeminent physicist unveils a field-defining theory of the origins and purpose of life. Why are we alive? Most things in the universe aren't. And everything that is alive traces back to things that, puzzlingly, weren't. For centuries, the scientific question of life's origins has confounded us. But in Every Life Is on Fire, physicist Jeremy England argues that the answer has been under our noses the whole time, deep within the laws of thermodynamics. England explains how, counterintuitively, the very same forces that tend to tear things apart assembled the first living systems. But how life began isn't just a scientific question. We ask it because we want to know what it really means to be alive. So England, an ordained rabbi, uses his theory to examine how, if at all, science helps us find purpose in a vast and mysterious universe. In the tradition of Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, Every Life Is on Fire is a profound testament to how something can come from nothing.

Download or read book Probable Impossibilities written by Alan Lightman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Einstein’s Dreams tackles "big questions like the origin of the universe and the nature of consciousness ... in an entertaining and easily digestible way” (Wall Street Journal) with a collection of meditative essays on the possibilities—and impossibilities—of nothingness and infinity, and how our place in the cosmos falls somewhere in between. Can space be divided into smaller and smaller units, ad infinitum? Does space extend to larger and larger regions, on and on to infinity? Is consciousness reducible to the material brain and its neurons? What was the origin of life, and can biologists create life from scratch in the lab? Physicist and novelist Alan Lightman, whom The Washington Post has called “the poet laureate of science writers,” explores these questions and more—from the anatomy of a smile to the capriciousness of memory to the specialness of life in the universe to what came before the Big Bang. Probable Impossibilities is a deeply engaged consideration of what we know of the universe, of life and the mind, and of things vastly larger and smaller than ourselves.
Download or read book God Is a Particle written by David C. Peterson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the most cutting-edge scientific discoveries of our time, including the confirmation of the Higgs boson particle (or field) which has been described as more notable and important than Einsteins Theory of Relativity. The Higgs boson discovery highlights that entity, also referred to as the God Particle, which controls roving particles of energy to become the building blocks of the atom by forming the neutrons, electrons, protons and other components of the atoms which collect to become everything in existence. Our first impulse tends to be that all of this is too difficult to understand, but its not. While scientists now confess bewilderment at what they are discovering, they confirm that it is all true. This book assembles and provides to the average reader these mindboggling discoveries in a manner that allows them to come to know and understand the process of creation of all things, including humans. This pursuit was undertaken by the author acting as investigator and examiner of the evidence presented by scientists. This leads the reader to a conclusion as to whether or not the apparent instructions imbedded into the Higgs boson particle, and the atoms it creates, along with all matter coming into existence, are the products of intelligent design or, on the other hand, occur by accident (Big Bang). Readers are informed and highly enlightened regarding the components and workings of the universe, Earth and human origins.

Download or read book Life as Process written by Philip S. Salisbury and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about observation and process. It addresses what we observe, how we observe, and the value and consequences of how we observe. It also explores the terms of value and meaning, the attribution of value and meaning to observation, and the process of existence. Second, this essay examines time and change and how we observe both. It discusses the concept of living in the now or living in the moment and examines their relevance to a life well lived. Third, the essay proposes a framework for observing reality. The framework suggests that not only can we observe life from a global perspective but that we have the capacity to experience reality at multiple levels. This is where the empiricist confronts the level-of-analysis issue. Fourth, it explores our human and assisted levels of observation. This represents a broad spectrum of innate as well as chemical, physical, and electronic devices that allow us to explore our universe, our relationships, and our personal lives. Fifth, the essay investigates various methods that humans employed to rationalize their understandings of reality. Included in the discussion is the relevance of these practices to an individuals personal life. In addition, the essay discusses observing the world as it is and the difficulties inherent in maintaining objectivity while observing precisely. One of the conditions of our current environment is the loss of pragmatism. Ideologies now dominate our political discourse, be it local, statewide, national, or international. In such an environment, compromise becomes unlikely. There is a black and a white with no room for gray. The essay discusses the eventual, and alternative, consequences of this.
Download or read book The God Particle Bible written by Michael Mathiesen and published by Michael Mathiesen. This book was released on 2016-10-09 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It should be obvious even to the Scientists that discovered the God Particle, otherwise known as the Higgs Boson, that only some form of God would be the one to send out all of his particles. But, too many of us are so objective and jaded that we miss the most obvious lessons in Science right in front of our eyes. The God Particles were the first of such things created during the Big Bang and we know this because it is only the God Particle that can give all of the other particles their mass. Not only in the subatomic world, but all of our lives depend on the God Particle Field remaining in effect from the beginning of Time all the way to the end of Time. And, if it was the first thing to be created in the universe by the Creator of the universe, do we not owe this most amazing event in the history of the universe just a little more investigation and perhaps even reverence? When you look at the universe, both to the outside of us or to the inside of us, you see the magnificent footprints and fingerprints of a master Creator. Nothing is more obvious than the fact that the way things snap together so perfectly can't possibly be an accident or a random series of events. There is an obvious patter to it, so God's Particles, the ones in the center of the current model of the common understanding of Physics and subatomic physics had to have something in the middle, like a keystone for a building, something that keeps it all together and in this model we finally have reality cemented together, or at least most of it. Today, they are saying there may be a Fifth Force in the universe and a particle that carries it. But, in order to understand that fifth force, should it prove to be real, we need to fully understand the God Particle first.. This book is for anyone who has ever wondered why major events take place in their lives for which there seems to be no explanation. The explanation is clear now thanks to the discovery in Geneva Switzerland in 2012 using the most expensive scientific apparatus in history, the Large Hadron Collider, to discover the God Particle. God is no longer just a myth and part of a mythology, no longer is God based on fairy tales, or stories in children's books. God is now based on the best Scientific exploration that is possible using the human mind. The God Particle, it turns out is the most basic fundamental force that makes everything in the universe happen according to a plan. Since the discovery of this amazing new energy, we now have at our disposal a pathway to finding our source. Since the God Particle was the first thing created by the Big Bang and since it gives everything else in the universe it's mass, the stuff that makes things matter, it is simple logic to see that the God Particle Field is the way that God promulgates his will all over the universe. That means these particles are constantly working to create all of our life's events in such a way that follows God's laws, especially the ones we call the Laws of Physics. The good news is that anyone can understand these laws and use them to their own advantage. You don't need a Ph.D in any scientific discipline to fully appreciate these concepts. All you need is a little bit of curiosity as to how the universe works and your place in it. The God Particle Bible is a new Book that will take you on an adventure in Science where they have proven the existence of God. Not only has Science proven the existence of God in the manner of the discovery of the God Particle, but they have shown us how God works his miracles in our daily lives. This book, authored by noted Science Fiction writer, Michael Mathiesen is the first of its kind to describe not only how God works, but also where God lives. The author presents us with an entire new form of "Technology" that anyone can learn to use to exploit the greatest Force in the universe, to alter one's fate or change their own destiny as well as the destiny of our entire civilization. The "Force" mentioned in Star Wars actually exists. It has now been proven to exist. The God Particle Bible is the first primer on how to use 'The Force' to benefit the individual life as well as the life of the planet and all future generations.

Download or read book Deep Down Things written by Bruce A. Schumm and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2004-10-20 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A useful scientific theory, claimed Einstein, must be explicable to any intelligent person. In Deep Down Things, experimental particle physicist Bruce Schumm has taken this dictum to heart, providing in clear, straightforward prose an elucidation of the Standard Model of particle physics -- a theory that stands as one of the crowning achievements of twentieth-century science. In this one-of-a-kind book, the work of many of the past century's most notable physicists, including Einstein, Schrodinger, Heisenberg, Dirac, Feynman, Gell-Mann, and Weinberg, is knit together in a thorough and accessible exposition of the revolutionary notions that underlie our current view of the fundamental nature of the physical world. Schumm, who has spent much of his life emmersed in the subatomic world, goes far beyond a mere presentation of the "building blocks" of matter, bringing to life the remarkable connection between the ivory tower world of the abstract mathematician and the day-to-day, life-enabling properties of the natural world. Schumm leaves us with an insight into the profound open questions of particle physics, setting the stage for understanding the progress the field is poised to make over the next decade or two. Introducing readers to the world of particle physics, Deep Down Things opens new realms within which are many clues to unraveling the mysteries of the universe.
