Lea Lisa - Intention [Mona Musique]



ammmmmmmmmm back mo fo's, for part 2, of our epic journey, into the unknown realms, of rhythm and bass and you know, it is my, purpose to pull you up, from your knees, to your feel, and break this sleeper hold, they have over you, open your minds, see the truth, it is our will and, "Intention", that shape reality, for example even a decaying particle, cannot decay if constantly being observed,  THE GREEK philosopher Zeno of Elea is famous for demonstrating that motion is logically impossible. He argued that a runner who wishes to reach a goal must first run from the starting point to the midpoint of the journey, then run from this point to the midpoint of the remaining distance, and so on, for ever. The runner will never reach the goal, said Zeno, because, it is impossible to traverse an infinite number of intervals. Of course, Zeno refuted his own logical deduction each time he went for a walk. Nevertheless, the paradox stimulated considerable philosophical discussion, and led eventually to a mathematical understanding of the process of infinite subdivision of a finite but continuous entity, In quantum mechanics, the theory of the microscopic world, there is a paradox which is similar in spirit to Zeno’s paradox. In 1977, B. Misra and George Sudarshan of the University of Texas showed theoretically that the decay of an unstable particle – for example, a radioactive nucleus – is suppressed by the act of observation. The more times it is observed, the greater is the suppression. When it is observed continuously, the decay simply does not happen. This has a quite staggering implication: a radioactive nucleus that is watched constantly remains intact for ever, despite the fact that it is intrinsically unstable. It is this phenomenon of ‘a watched pot never boiling’ that Misra and Sudershan call the quantum Zeno effect, (the quantum Zeno Effect — a.k.a. Turing’s Paradox — comes in. Taking its name from Zeno’s arrow paradox (a moving arrow can’t actually be seen moving in any single instant, which means it’s not really moving at all), this idea basically states that if you never stop observing a particle that undergoes decay, then that particle will never decay. If that particle never decays, you’ve basically stopped it from doing anything. You’ve stopped time. The study of quantum physics is limited by the actions of the observer on a particular system. The most famous example of this is probably Schrödinger’s Cat, a thought experiment that illustrates the paradox inherent in quantum mechanics. You can learn more about Schrödinger and his damn cat here, but the basic conclusion is that before an observer can actually “measure” a certain system, she has to assume all outcomes are possible — and, therefore, before an observation is made, both of those outcomes exist simultaneously. They are superimposed on one-another. But what happens if you are constantly observing the system? Well, if it’s the real world and not some crazy thought experiment, then the cat dies or doesn’t. But that’s not the way subatomic particles work. Multiple studies illustrate how measuring particles with increased frequency will affect the rate of decay — potentially suppressing it completely. And that’s because if you keep making measurements, there’s no time for the particles to progress into a superimposed state — they will always exist in their original, un-decayed state, And if an unstable particle isn’t decaying, it’s basically frozen in time. In a way, this demonstrates a possible way to stop time. Now, it’s nowhere near practical, of course — nobody has easy access to the type of high-tech scientific instruments you need to measure decaying atoms with such intense frequency. But the quantum Zeno effect does show that, at very, very tiny scales, you might be able to stop time). For the effect to occur, one technical condition must be satisfied. For a short interval of time after an unstable particle has been created, the probability of it decaying should increase with the square of its age. In practice, the condition is usually satisfied. The interval of time is known as the Zeno time. If measurements of the particle are made within one Zeno time of each other, a phenomenon known as ‘the collapse of the wave function’ ensures that the decay is suppressed. The wave function in quantum theory is a mathematical entity that contains information about the dynamic behaviour of a particle. The Schrodinger equation determines how the wave function evolves in time. While the wave function is evolving, it contains within it all the possibilities of the particle’s future; but the moment the particle is observed, it falls into one particular state. Physicists say that the wave function ‘collapses’. The quantum Zeno effect occurs in the following way. Initially, the wave function of an unstable particle is concentrated around the undecayed state. As time passes, however, the wave function spreads out into the decayed state. But each time a measurement is made, the wave function snaps back, or ‘collapses’, into the undecayed state. The quantum Zeno effect would seem to imply that an unstable particle in a bubble chamber will never decay, because the track it leaves behind, signifies that it is being observed continuously. But physicists see unstable particles routinely when they inspect tracks made in bubble chambers. In fact, there is no paradox. When physicists look more closely – on the atomic scale – they find that the track is not continuous, but broken up. This means that the observation of the unstable particle, is not continuous at all, but intermittent. Although the gap between consecutive observation is small, it is longer than the Zeno time, which is exceedingly small. thereby making the breaking of the laws of physics, compleatly and inevitably possible, and if one law can be broken, so can the rest, there is no reality, it's a metaphysical construct, born of the internal expectations of the mind, we live, (lol), in a artificial reality, however it doesn't mean, i'm not going to have a little fun, grooving my way to the top as, standardz, hahahahaha, ;) #edio
