A new theory on how Schrödinger’s wave equation represents the forward passage of time itself photon by photon or moment by moment.

~
A link to the video 'A reason for mathematical infinity an artist theory on spacetime'


In this video mathematical infinity is explained as a physical process unfolding at the quantum level of the atoms. That continuously forms the arrow of time and geometry of spacetime.

This theory (Quantum Atom Theory) is based on two simple postulates the first is that Schrödinger's wave equation does not just predicts what the wave-function will be in the future, but that this process represents the forward passage of time itself photon by photon or moment by moment.



The second postulate is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle is the same uncertainty that we have with any future event.

Only infinity or an infinite process could create the diversity we see within our Universe. It is because time forms a time line from the past to the future that we have line symmetry in physics and in the physical world.

Everything that is part of this infinite process will have line symmetry including matter and antimatter, positive and negative charge there is even symmetry between electricity and magnetism forming electromagnetic fields.




There is even line symmetry in the physical shape of life itself. This is because we are not independent of this process but are active participants in the formation of our own spacetime geometry forming our own time line.



Schrödinger's wave-function expands as an inverse sphere the reason it is inverse is because we are within this process and any object observed from within will look inverse.






On the level of our everyday life the wave-function expands as electromagnetic waves (light) that is itself inverse in the form of frequency and wavelength.






The quantum particle wave-function forms a universal process of spherical symmetry forming and breaking that formed a geometrical and therefore mathematical base for Charles Darwin's theory on the evolution of life.


In this theory the reason life never produces straight line but endless variety of curves and spirals is because of the physical shape of the wave-function is always forming Einstein’s curvature of spacetime.

This might sound like a half-baked idea, but this is not because it is based on pseudo science, but because of the weirdness of quantum mechanics.

A physical reason for mathematical infinity

We have mathematical infinity in many forms. We have the infinite series of whole numbers and the infinite series of irrational numbers like pi.

There is also infinity between each whole number that can always be divided into ever smaller parts

If the laws of mathematics are true and linked to the law of nature and physics then these mathematical infinities must represent something in the physical reality of our Universe.

In a new theory called Quantum Atom Theory these mathematical infinities are formed by a continuous process at the quantum level.

Light or electromagnetic waves are continuously collapsing into photons of quantized energy forming new waves of future probability. We feel this process as the forward passage of time that form the geometry or curvature of spacetime.

It is because we can choose where and when to come in contact with the wave-function collapsing the light waves of EMR into quantum particles (photons) that we can create our own spacetime geometry this is why we have free-will.

The reason why we can always divide infinity into sets of infinities is because of this continuous process of the wave-particle function collapsing into new quantum particles of space and time. Because of this we have a continuous expansion at the quantum level that forms the continuum of time and the geometry of spacetime that can always be divided into sets of infinities.

The explanation is very simple a mathematician will continuously form his own spacetime geometry just like any other object in our Universe. Therefore it is only natural that he will be able to divide that geometry into infinitely smaller parts. We are all active participants in the dynamics of our Universe.

It is because this process is continuous that our number system is infinite and we have the infinite series of whole numbers. We have irrational numbers like pi because of the physical shape of the wave-function (spherical or inverse sphere) that forms the arrow of time.

In this theory Schrödinger’s equation does not just predict what the wave-function will be in the future, but this process represents the forward passage of time itself photon by photon or moment by moment.

The probability of the wave-function only works forward in time. We can always calculate backwards and see the position and momentum of a quantum particle in the past.

This is precisely the same as our everyday experience of nature and time, moving from a known past into an uncertain future!

Therefore Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle and the probability of the wave-function are the same uncertainty that we have with any future event.

I have tried to make this theory as simple as possibly in the belief that everyone should be able to understand it; a correct theory should be based on simplicity, symmetry and beauty.

Quantum Mechanics an Artist view of Space and Time


A video on Quantum Atom Theory

~

Quantum Atom Theory is based on the evidence (mathematics) and experiments like the Two Slit Experiment only the interpretation changes.
When something seems to be both true and false at the same time like wave-particle duality it means that our reasoning must be at fault or that our concept of time is wrong. Only a deeper concept of length and time or spacetime will give us an interpretation of quantum theory that is a valid description of the real world. I believe rightly or wrongly that such an interpretation will also give us an understanding of the arrow of time and why we have a future and a past in our everyday life.

In modern physics we have the cosmological time line leading back to the big bang. But there must also be a process happening now continuously forming the geometry of spacetime that the observer feels as the forward passage of time.

In Quantum Atom Theory this process is formed by the collapsing and reforming of the quantum wave-particle function forming Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle.

Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle is the same uncertainty that we have with any future event forming the future moment by moment or photon by photon

This theory can explain why we have a past and a future as a scientific process continuously unfolding. In this process every object including living things can affect the geometry of spacetime relative to their energy or mass.

It is because we can choose when and where to collapse the wave-function that we have free-will to create our own future at the centre of our own reference frame.

This is more understandable when you think this process is happening everywhere continuously even in the human mind. The observer is always in the moment of now because this process is formed by EMR and is therefore unfolding at the speed of light.

Just as time would stop for an observer traveling at the exact speed of light the observer is in an eternal now because time is formed at light speed.

This does not re-write the laws of physics it merges quantum mechanics with general relativity and therefore can be seen as quantum gravity.

Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity was that mass and energy warps spacetime. But this is not a complete theory because it does not explain how energy and mass can do this.

This theory explains a process on how mass and energy can do this by forming their own rate of time by the absorption and emission of EMR that will distort the geometry of spacetime. Therefore we have gravitational fields that operate at the speed of light as in Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity.

An explanation of time in quantum physics and in everyday life

Video explaining time in quantum physics and in everyday life.

In Quantum Atom Theory light is a wave of EMR and the quantization of light into photons take place when the waves come in contact with electrons on the surface of atoms.

When light waves come in contact with atoms it is said that the wave function collapses. This is because at that moment in time the waves of light turn into photons that are particles therefore we have wave-particle duality. Because we are all made of atoms and everything is radiating light waves of EMR continuously this is a continuous process. In Quantum Atom Theory this process forms the massage of time and the probability of when and where the light waves will come in contact with an object is the same probability that we have with any future event.

Light or EMR is a universal constant the speed of light is not relative to the movement of the observer or the movement of the object radiating the light. Modern physics cannot explain this but in this theory it is because each new photon of quantized energy forms a new moment in time. We see our Universe moment by moment or photon by photon because the wave-function is continuously collapsing and reforming forming the arrow of time.

Modern physics has no understanding of why we have a future and a past, but this theory can give us a scientific reason and in doing so explain the paradoxes of Quantum Mechanics.

Time is a universal process and it has the property of running at different rates relative to the energy or mass of an object within its own reference frame. This process is not just mathematical but has geometry and symmetry forming Einstein’s curvature of spacetime.

People have trouble visualizing the concept of time having the geometry of spacetime. I believe this is because there was an evolutionary advantage in seeing time as a kind of one dimensional arrow of time.

In modern physics spacetime is made up of an infinite number of reference frames and each one has its own proper time. The rate that time runs within each reference frame will be governed by the energy or mass of the object forming that frame of reference. The greater the energy or mass the slower time will run in that reference frame. Because mass increases when an object accelerates we have time dilation for that object relative to an object not accelerating within their own reference frame.

Some people say the paradoxes of quantum mechanics can only be explained by linking it to consciousness. But I believe only a greater understanding of physics at the quantum level will do this and this will also give us an understanding of what consciousness is and how it works.

Consciousness is the most advanced part of a universal process continuously forming reality. Because consciousness is the most advanced part of this process we can comprehend the process as the flow of time and can think about the past or look forward to the future. We can interact within this process therefore we have free-will to put this into the scientific equations like the Schrodinger’s equation.

In this theory all objects form their own rate of time that will have the geometry of spacetime, you me and even black holes by the absorption and emission of EMR or light. Black holes are the most extreme form and have formed their own region of spacetime where light cannot escape therefore time has stopped. The outer boundary is formed by light rays that just fail to get away and stay hovering at the event horizon. It is only if you come in contact with this EMR that you will fall in under gravity.

EMR always exists in space even Black Holes emit Hawking radiation, because time has stopped within the Black Hole we have gravitational time dilation and the nearer an object gets to the event horizon the slower time will run for that object. All objects emit EMR continuously and this EMR will be distorted because light will always take the shortest path it will be bent by the time dilation and the object will free fall towards the Black Hole.

All object distort the geometry of spacetime like this it is just that a Black Hole has stopped the outward flow of light therefore Schrodinger’s equation cannot predict what the wave function will be in the future because time has stopped in that reference frame.

Because objects can move in any direction in three dimension space but only one direction in time. They will distort spacetime more in the direction they are travelling. This will form the force known as inertia, the natural tendency for an object once set in motion to keep on moving in a straight line.

We are all active participants in the dynamics of our Universe that has just three dimensions and an infinite number of references frames. Each reference frame with its own quantum wave-particle function expanding as an inverse three dimensional sphere of probability. The surface of the sphere having two dimensions forming boundary condition between the past and future in spacetime. This forms the uncertainty of Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle that is the same probability and uncertainty that we have in everyday life.

Einstein said “for us physicists the distinction between past, present and future is only an illusion”. Could he have been wrong?


A link to the video A Quantum Theory that is a valid explanation of the real world


This video explains the forward motion of time in a dynamically evolving universe within a new hypothesis called Quantum Atom Theory. In this very simple theory creation is a continuous process and the flow of time is formed by the continuous inward absorption and outward emission of light or electromagnetic radiation.

Wave-particle duality can be explained as a process forming the passage of time. Light could then be a wave as in Maxwell’s equations forming the future photon by photon or moment by moment. The energy or wavelength of the light will determine the rate that time runs in that reference frame. Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle is the same probability that the observer will have with any future event.

In an evolutionary sense wave-particle duality and the wave-function must have be here before the evolution of life. So there is no way that the wave-function was formed by consciousness. But we have the w-function here and now continuously collapsing everywhere even within our own minds. I believe consciousness feels this process has the forward passage of time formed by the w-function continuously collapsing and reforming. We have the arrow of time and time only runs one way because the wave-function only works one way we always know the position and momentum of a quantum particle in the past.

In a very similar way that we use sound wave to create our own music we use light waves to create our own future time that will have the geometry of space-time. The wave-particle duality of light is continuously forming a blank canvas for the observer that he or she can participate in!

In this Theory time is unfolding at the quantum level forming the probability that we will see and feel as future events. In this theory all objects (groups of atoms) will form their own future reference frame or space-time by reacting with the wave-particle duality of light. Objects can choose when and where to collapse the wave-particle duality of light forming their own unique position in space and time.
This is all based on the physics and mathematics that we already have. Modern physics says that the Universe is made up of an infinite number of reference frames that all have their own proper time relative to their position and momentum. In Quantum Atom Theory only the interpretation has changed explaining the paradoxes of quantum physics and the reality of everyday life.

A reason for a future and a past within a new quantum theory

Quantum Atom Theory can explain the paradoxes of quantum physics and can also give us a valid explanation of the real world of everyday life.

In this theory we have the paradoxes of quantum physics because we have no fundamental understanding of how time is formed. There has to be a universal process forming the passage of time. In modern physics we have an infinity number of reference frames and each one has its own proper time relative to its position and moment.

But there is no understanding of how time is formed within each reference frame. In Quantum Atom Theory time is formed by the absorption and emission of EMR or light by the atoms. The continuous absorption forms the future and the emission forms the past within the object’s or observer’s own reference frame.

The observer as a group of atoms react with the wave-particle duality of light in unison collapsing the wave-function into photons of quantized energy forming their own time photon by photon or moment by moment therefore we have free-will to form our own future.

Basically in this theory EMR or light expands out in a spherical waves and when it comes in contact with the atoms of another object the waves collapse into photons of quantized energy. This continuous process forms the forward passage of time the greater the energy the slower time runs the stronger the gravitational field and greater the curvature of space-time.


The paradoxes of Quantum physics explained by Quantum Atom Theory

The Double Slit Experiment can be explained as a process unfolding in time. The experiment has its own reference frame or time frame that is isolated from the observer. Until the observer turns on a detector to determine which slit a photon went through. This forms a new photon that is part of the observer time frame and at that moment in time the interference pattern collapses.

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle is the same uncertainty that the observer will have with any future event. This is because the wave-function represents the forward passage of time at the most fundamental level. Time only moves forward because the wave-function only works one way we always know the position and momentum of a quantum particle in the past.

Quantum entanglement is formed because light has spherical symmetry and a photon will therefore have opposite spin on opposite sides of the light sphere.

The wave-particle duality of EMR is formed by the quantization of light waves when they come in contact with electrons on the surface of atoms. This forms new photons of quantized energy forming the forward passage of time and the geometry of spacetime.

Nonlocality or the ability for things to happen instantaneous at a distance is because time is being formed by light waves radiating out from its radius forming symmetry in three dimensions spacetime.

Superposition in just future probability this is why we can never physically observe an atom in two places at once. To do so would form a photon that would be part of our own time frame and therefore could not be part of any future probability.

Quantum tunneling can be explained by the wave nature of EMR, just as light waves can penetrate glass or x-ray can penetrate the body. At the quantum level EMR in the form of wave can penetrate objects forming a future probability of where quantum particles will be found.

The Twin Paradox is formed because the frequency of an accelerating object will increase (mass will increase) relative to the received frequency that is therefore reduced by the Lorentz factor. As the inward absorption and outward emission of EMR is reduced the duration of a clock cycle will increase for the accelerating object and time will be measured to run more slowly in that reference frame.

Nonlinearity is a kind of chicken and egg paradox, mass tells spacetime how to warp and at the same time warped spacetime tells mass how to move. Once we see that time is formed by photons of quantized energy (energy equals mass) we have a process that is linear within its own reference frame.

A concept of Time an artist theory


A concept of Time an artist theory
~

In this theory Time and the geometry of Spacetime is continuously being formed by the spontaneous absorptions and emission of light or EMR, at the quantum level of the atoms.


Electrons in atoms can change energy levels by emitting or absorbing a photon of light whose energy must be exactly equal to the energy difference between the two levels. The frequency of light emitted is a function of how far away in energy the two states of the system were, the energy difference between the two states equals the energy carried off by the new photon. This new photon will therefore have an energy level of the Golden ratio compared to the previous energy levels.



The mathematics of the golden ratio and of the Fibonacci sequence 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, … are intimately interconnected.



This gives us a geometrical therefore mathematical base for the evolution of life explaining why Nature never produces straight lines but an endless array of curves and spirals.

We therefore have a universal process of symmetry forming and breaking. Formed by the spherical shape of the quantum wave particle function in three dimensional space forming Einstein’s curvature of spacetime.

This can also be seen in the size of the fine structure constant 137… that cannot be explained by modern physics.

In this theory the fine structure constant results from dividing a sphere into parallel bands of equal area and placing one node in each band at longitudes spaced by a golden section of the circle, i.e. 360°/φ ≅ 222.5°. We then subtract this from 360. The result will always be 137.5 that why it's a constant.



The fine structure constant 137… is the symmetry and geometry of spacetime formed by an interaction between electromagnetic radiation (light) and the spherical electron cloud around an atom.


This is why we have 4pi in the equation representing the shape of the wave function in three dimensional spacetime.


We also have pi in the equation for Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle represents the same uncertainty the observer will have with any future event.
