Photon Tunneling and other Quantum Effects.

Photon Super-Light speed?

"The superluminality of tunneling photons is now textbook material, although the authors note that
controversy still remains. Another paradoxical result, known as the Hartman effect, is that the tunneling time of the
photons becomes independent of barrier length in the limit of opaque barriers."

You see, particle physicists and even the Quantum mechanics types have a hard time accepting some to the deeper implications. Got their junk in a box...ah, ricebowl, so to speak. So, a lot of "science" is squashing inter-disciplinary thought. And we see the control obsessions as a playout of the squash.

We computer science types are busy harvesting the inter-disciplinary thoughts and harnessing these effects.

Here's a set of evidence and references for photon tunneling and how the single photon tunnel is analogous to single electron tunneling. Imagine that!
http://www.citebase.org/abstract?identifier=oai:arXiv.org:cond-mat/0110252

Strong evidence of a single-photon tunneling effect, a direct analog of single-electron tunneling, has been obtained in the measurements of light tunneling through individual subwavelength pinholes in a thick gold film covered with a layer of polydiacetylene. The transmission of some pinholes reached saturation because of the optical nonlinearity of polydiacetylene at a very low light intensity of a few thousands photons per second. This result is explained theoretically in terms of "photon blockade", similar to the Coulomb blockade phenomenon observed in single-electron tunneling experiments. The single-photon tunneling effect may find many applications in the emerging fields of quantum communication and information processing.

It is emerging from hypothesis. There are still big challenges before I'd say it's Theory, like Evolution of Species. But we are getting there.

The very latest concepts are close held. The potential here is greater that anything I know of and could crack Space Density technologies as well as lag free communications regardless of distance. But, it is very relevant to solve these challenges first and I can't find much progress past this in the public domain. It requires new ideas. So, as much as the buzz kills will squash the need for new ideas, I am not daunted. If you are guarding a rice bowl, your idea scope is limited.

Finally found something readable for the buzz kills about what I've been so happy about.

"In today’s physics the conviction still prevails that gravity works directly between
massive bodies via hypothetical gravitational waves. Research here shows that mass
changes density/curvature of quantum space and this change generates gravitational
motion."

And this describes the, ah ha moment, I had when Rhino began to describe his vision of crumpled space.
Thanks RtR! Of course, it was thought of before I realized it. That's their job.

"Expanding of the universe is the result of high density of quantum space in outer
space. High dense space is expanding similar as a high dense gas."

This above talks about testing Quantum Theory

And this describes the CMB as the wall of last scattering.

http://map.gsfc.nasa.gov/universe/bb_tests_cmb.html

"This “wall of light“ is called the surface of last scattering since it was the last time most of the CMB photons directly scattered off of matter. When we make maps of the temperature of the CMB, we are mapping this surface of last scattering."

Though dectable in all directions it maps a wall of light. This wall, to me, is more likely the inside a of wall that is moving away from us,
and not the situation where we are outside of the Wall that no longer exists.

Perhaps, the clueless among us need to relax their monkey grip brain lock or they will never get their minds out of the trap.

Do you actually want responses or are you just posting so you can get in your passive aggressive jabs?

Of course we are already harnessing some of the so called, marco-quantum effects. The Josephson junction is a lose-less tunnel for electrons in super-conductor setups. The super-current dissipates no heat. There is essentially no resistance to the flow of direct electrical current. Heat generation, is work or what is called Watts in the electron model of reality. The electron becomes attractive instead of repulsive. (if we could just do that for people)

Bose-Einstein matter can be thought of as matter that is cooled into it's lowest quantum state and the atoms begin to behave in a uniformity resembling electrons. It's a distinct state of matter, like plasma is a state of matter.

The very thing for quantum computing because to make a digital state we need ON or OFF, something, somehow.
The BEC can be manipulated to provide digital state with only 2 atoms!

Here's a totally unrelated thought puzzle. Do all Ducks quack or just the stupid ones? Answer: Who gives a shit?

Where do magnets fit in the quantum picture? If you need to manipulate single atoms at very cold temps, magnetic effects might just be the only practical way. And for many reasons, a massive particle that behaves, as if massless, is desirable for experimentation.

Yes, and we will need fine scale tools and instruments to work with single atoms in computing tech.

And I thought this was interesting; the latest on Condensed matter in reference papers listed by German patent attorneys.
I'd say, quantum effects are very real to these guys.

It occurs to us that the Spacetime density gradients could be modeled in BEC statistics. It can perhaps also lead us to understanding Spacetime as the progenitor of matter, (or not.) Nothing really to wrangle about. Nothing to respond to. We can just think of implications.

Folding and releasing just a bit of space in the proper alignment, extremely rapidly, could, for example, make for a very interesting transportation device. Perhaps a Pulse Width Modulation tech could be created to reduce the power dissipation problems like with modern digital motor controls.

IAC, here is an avenue of investigation. What is wrong with dreaming about cool possibilities?

It has been a bit difficult for me to describe it very well, so I found this. Mass, Charge and Time are all part of appearances only.

Not Fundamental Forces.
http://www.quantummatter.com/space-resonance/what-is-it/

"The Space Resonance concept – matter structured of spherical wave centers – avoids and explains the paradoxes and problems of point particles. In hindsight it is simple; since mass and charge substances do not exist in nature, removing them from particle structure also removes their problems. In their place, the wave centers possess the properties of mass and charge which we observe in a human-sized laboratory, but without the problems of finding mass points which do not exist! One of the fascinating puzzles explained below by this new structure is the former mystery – the spin of the electron! The overwhelming proof of the Wave Structure of Matter is the discovery that all the former empirical natural laws originate from the wave structure."

Now for the truly weird. Many Worlds Hypothesis. Just to set the stage, the Quantum mechanic of waves vs particle has been know since the early 20th century. Shine a light through a pair of holes and what do you see? A row of holes, not just two. It's called the Double Hole experiment and anyone can replicate it with a flashlight a cardboard with two slits. Shine on the wall and, what? A row of slits. How is it the photons can be in many places in once?

When Heisenberg and colleges took an extremely close look, it didn't happen. Using an electron gun, any attempt to measure electrons duplicating, it didn't happen. The Observation not only disturbed the experiment, it fundamentally altered what was happening. When we observe, we see electrons going through two holes, and not fanning out into a row of holes. Uncertainty, as a fact, in the real world.

Well, now there is the ability to look at the particles after the slits, but before the wall. We should observe a fan like grouping, as the electrons fill the many places at once. Nope, when they are observed, they are just electron particles going through two holes. And looking back up the stream with the detector they appear to have gone...back in time... to appear to have never fanned out. Observation collapses the probability waves. These are the famous causality/locality experiments that prove quantum mechanics on a macro scale in our real world. The instantaneous communication laser pairs and the qubit quantum computer are already here.

Uncoupled causality and locality lead to an interesting conclusion. Parallel Universes could be right here and right now, actually.

I'm reading more and more the long argued debate is ending. This is not just a microscopic oddity. Our human selves are these particles. It's no joke that we are aggregates of these trillion to the trillions of particles. We have to be subject to these quantum laws. This is the Everett Interpretation. It include the concepts of volition, free will. Can you feel it? Can you imagine it? I ask you my forum mates, what else are our lives but a fine grained series of[FONT=verdana,] irreversible event[/FONT]s? How many worlds are there?
Worlds without end?

http://www.hedweb.com/everett/everett.htm
[FONT=verdana,][/FONT][FONT=verdana,][SIZE=-1][h=3][/h][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=verdana,] The thermodynamic Planck-Boltzmann relationship, S = k*log(W), counts the branches of the wavefunction at each splitting, at the lowest, maximally refined level of Gell-Mann's many-histories tree. (See "What is many-histories?") The bottom or maximally divided level consists of microstates which can be counted by the formula W = exp (S/k), where S = entropy, k = Boltzmann's constant (approx 10^-23 Joules/Kelvin) and W = number of worlds or macrostates. The number of coarser grained worlds is lower, but still increasing with entropy by the same ratio, i.e. the number of worlds a single world splits into at the site of an irreversible event, entropy dS, is exp(dS/k). Because k is very small a great many worlds split off at each macroscopic event.[/FONT]

Great thread, Doer Although, I may have collect my brain from each world and add them up to comprehend a lot of it

Shouldn't be to hard to understand it, everything he said can be seen here in this episode of The Universe: http://www.history.com/shows/the-universe/videos/the-universe-microscopic-universe#the-universe-microscopic-universe

I'm guessing that's where he got the inspiration for this post lol.

We'll it is true that there has been a lot about some of this lately on TV. So, that makes it true, right? But, you haven't seen anything on Space Resonance, have you? I have not. I did catch the episode above, but I make it a point to follow along wih the science, long before hits TV.
