Time-motion-energy-space

12/09/2014

Time can exist only when there is motion. Motion is possible because of energy. Energy is motion. It can be a potential or an actual. If everything would freeze in the cosmos and there would be no energy-motion, the time would stop to exist.
Motion-energy needs space. If there is no space there is no time either. So the time-motion-energy-space are one.
Description of Entropy  as a process from order to disorder is misleading. I would say Entropy is a process from diversity to unity. The point is that the word disorder in relation to Entropy is very confusing expression and reflects subjective feelings. Entropy is a nonreversible process heading from certain unique structure towards absolute uniformity. To make it more wordy, i would use a metafore of dissolving rivers carrying different solutions into the ocean where they create a uniform solution of the ocean waters. This process is irreversible without additional energy.

Is consciousness a quantum processes?

If the quantum processes are behind the consciousness and the free will, then the consciousness of the human being have to control and operate the quantum processes. It means consciousness cannot be probabilistic any more, but will be managed by being above the quantum process itself. Then who and what is this consciousness? It can't be anymore just the brain, that seems to be just a quantum machine. It cannot be also the quantum computation process itself as in the computers, since it is probabilistic, which opposes the concept of free will.
So what are we left with? Or to start to believe in some kind of human spirit, that can't be scientifically explained. Or in other words  we have to admitat that at todays knowledge we have no clue what we are. The alternative is to except that we are only machine without free will (like the animals of Descartes ), living in illusion of free will. But if we are just a machine, then again machines need creator who defines them or can it do the evolution by itself? And here we are back in the fields that can't be scientifically explained.
----------------------------
To start with, the scientific research of consciousness has became a respectable field of science only 30 years ago, probably due to computing science development, that brought the idea of consciousness as a computing system, that when reaching certain level of sophistication turns on the ilusion of conscious I.  This idea is contradictory to the subjective feeling of free will and all the rest.
Stuart Hameroff, an anesthetic started a research with microtubules, a hexagonal tube shaped carbon molecule that is one of the building molecules of the living cell and especially the neuron cell. The anesthesia is a process in which the consciousness is turned off. So he started research in this direction an started a collaboration with Roger Penrose , your acquaintance.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Penrose#Physics_and_consciousness
This collaboration brought the Orch-OR theory,  viz; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestrated_objective_reduction
Penrose's ideas concerning the three worlds: physical, mental, and the Platonic mathematical world. In his theory, the Platonic world corresponds to the geometry of fundamental spacetime that is claimed to support non-computational thinking.
The theory had several problems of energy waste, heat, and time. Some of these theoretical problems were solved with the time like the problem of energy efficiency of the process that uses similar quantum processes as the photosynthesis in the plants, its effectiveness of converting sun energy is almost 100%. Viz:
http://newscenter.lbl.gov/2010/05/10/untangling-quantum-entanglement/
The findings of Whaley/Fleming team if used by brain can solve some of efficiency problems of the theory and the heat problem.
Other critic of the Orch-Or theory are Jeffrey R. ReimersLaura K. McKemmishRoss H. McKenzieAlan E. MarkNoel S. Hush in article: “Consciousness in the universe: A review of the ‘Orch OR’ theory” say:
For quantum information processing one must have quantum information storage units such as qubits. All aspects of the proposal need to be considered in terms of how they either influence or are influenced by the properties of these storage units. For example, the involvement of quantum gravity in the manifestation of consciousness would need to be described in terms of how quantum gravity affected the operation of these qubits, as would any other effect that could impact on macroscopic neural processes, and the influence of any dynamical process taking place in, on, or around the microtubules.
In the current review Hameroff and Penrose suggest that the qubit could be either: (a) “interactive dipole states of individual tubulin proteins” such as “London-force dipoles” or (b) magnetic dipoles or (c) nuclear spins. “London force electric dipoles” have been discussed in previous publications but the other two options have been introduced for the first time. Previously, Hameroff and Penrose had also proposed that conformational switching could produce coupled electron–vibration qubits but this claim is withdrawn in the current review.
The London force is of quantum-mechanical origin. An instantaneous fluctuation of the electronic distribution creates a dipole in one molecule that in turn induces a dipolar response in a neighbouring molecule. This leads to a net attractive force. The key feature is that these electric dipoles are fluctuations, not states. Individual states are needed to construct a qubit, and the review makes no attempt at specifying how qubit states could be associated with these London fluctuations. Further, it is not explained how the magnetic dipole states could be constructed or how these states could be decoupled from the nuclear motions so as to achieve extended quantum coherence. No suggestion is made as to how states associated with nuclear spins in magnetic fields could be utilized as qubits in situ in microtubules, and the nuclei supposedly supporting the states are not named.
The Hameroff and Penrose answer to the previouse is
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1571064513001917
I'm not sure I fully understand their answer.
Ok, so the quantum entanglement solves the energy efficiency problem. Still I don't get, how it creates free will? To my understanding the superposition effect is influenced by the observer and it's result prediction is probabilistic. This doesn't sounds to me as free will. It is rather a predictable system with certain level of free choice within the limits of probability prediction.
As i understand these systems of superposition and entanglement can't be controlled, but rather influenced by observer, without to give him tools of control.  Yet the free will is all about conscious control, otherwise it would be eider chaotic or controlled by some other observer, who does have the tools of control. 
We could call this well equipped Superobserver God, but then all the jewdochristian believers will misinterpret this observation.

Pretentious chat of neophytes about physics-






02/07/2013
: Can anyone answer me to a question? Why the galaxies are arranged flat like frisbee and and not in spherical shape like a ball?
M: Just think of a ball of dough, start spinning it and tossing it up and down. Next thing you know you’ve got a flat round dough for pizza.
E: Is the accretion disk a sinusoidal wave that shakes the ball vertically and changes the balls shape to be flat or is it the speed of the rotation exceeding the bonding force of the gravitation? Or maybe both? Why should be only one axis to any spin? The earth axis spins in such waves, does the sun and its planets axis do the same? Like this ~~?

J: Because of the super massive black hole in the center of the milky way. You see, the way it spins sends out a gravitational disk which we all move on, called the accretion disk. An interesting side note to this phenomena is that our solar system doesn’t orbit around on this galactic plane perfectly but passes through it like a sine wave. Because the black hole is infinite mass the gravity in the disc is very intense and could explain why the Earth goes through periods of destruction.
E: thanks. I will have to make a research to understand your answer. But i have another question or rather a hypotheses. Is it possible that the Universe itself is spinning and creating an immense eccentric force that causes acceleration of the Universe’s expansion? Is it possible that the dark energy is nothing else but this centrifugal force? Maybe also the big bang was not so much a bang as a enormous spin? If everything else is spinning why “ausgerechnet”, the Universe is not?
J: That is very interesting. It certainly wouldn’t be stranger than current theory’s. Perhaps you would be interest in some of Walter Russell’s science look him up.
E: If you are mathematician or physicist, which i am not, so lets try to figure out together what this idea means. I am ready to go into it with some additional ideas. There is no big chance, anybody can verify or disprove this theory but it can gain lots of grands, just like the string theory.
J:But the universe is expanding in all directions evenly. A spinning object would only account for the expansion of one particular axis. Therefore I’m not sure of this theory
E: What about an ALL AXIS spin? We can’t imagine it but it still my exist as may exists an 11 dimensional universe which is also beyond our perception. Maybe it can be imagined as a rotation around a continuously changing axis where time differences of change of the axis are zero, all in speed of light. I wonder if we could calculate that the universe spins in all direction at speed of light at the same moment, and check if this angular momentum would be enough to support its expansion rate and its acceleration rate. If mathematically it fits it would give some indirect evidence to the theory. Also the limit of speed of light and so the phenomenon of time as changing variable would be explained in this way??? By the way, can anybody calculate what would be the speed of spin of the Universe in this case? Let me guess, more than the speed of light. Obviously with the expansion of Universe this speed would increase and accelerate too.
E; Dear Patrice, You just exposed yourself as a mathematician and i would like to expose to you a naive idea (maybe very childish, since it is not my field of expertise), but i will allow myself to play a child with an idea of alternative theory of creation to big bang. I don’t have the mathematical tools to check what it actually means, and maybe you can easily turn the idea into rubbish.
So here is my hypotheses. Is it possible that the Universe itself is spinning and creating an immense eccentric force that causes acceleration of the Universe’s expansion? Is it possible that the dark energy is nothing else but this centrifugal force? Maybe also the big bang was not so much a big bang but an enormous spin? If everything else is spinning why “ausgerechnet”, the Universe is not?
Since the universe is expanding in all directions evenly, to prevent its expansion in one particular axis, it should be an big number of AXIS spin? It is hard to imagine but mathematically it could work. Of course the spin at the beginning has to be of something bigger than zero, and the number of spin axes has to be smaller than infinitive number. Otherwise, as i can understand couldn’t be the asymmetry between the matter and antimatter, that is essential to the creation. By the way, this could probably explain this asymmetry.
I wonder if the universe spins in velocity of speed of light, what size the first dot of creation should be before it starts to spin and how many axes of spin we need to create enough angular momentum to support the existing expansion rate of the universe at speed of light. Maybe it would even explain the phenomena of increasing acceleration rate of Universe expansion by increased speed of spin.
The limit of speed of light, would be probably caused by the speed of spin. Is it possible that if the spin velocity increases the speed of light increases too or the time shortens?
As to my idea, this spin energy is the energy of creation, translated to energy (spin or spring vibration or any other movement) we can observe in the Universe.
Patrice Ayme Says:

Dear Eugen: Most pure research mathematicians know no physics (that’s often how they define purity…). However, I am a mathematical physicist, so I am in my element.
The Big Bang always depended upon enormous accelerating expansion (“cosmological INFLATION”). Now it has gotten worse, because it looks as if the expansion were accelerating. Inflation precludes expansion from angular momentum, as you suggest (although you get a prize for innovation: I have heard a lot, but never that particular one!).
Rotating Black Holes do behave differently from static ones, so your idea is not crazy.
The BB is a theory of expanding SPACEtime. Not just a theory of flung out matter, expanding. Although matter within space cannot go at more than c within a delimited neighborhood inside a local reference frame, SPACEtime is not so limited.
The weakness of the BB is that, although a plausible theory, it supposes lots of things on the way, and one gets very different theories by supposing less outrageous hypotheses…

  • EugenR Says:
    Your answer is very encouraging. So let me develop a bit the idea of the Big Spin.
    I see in the model several variables that can be played with;1. The speed of spin, which can be at speed of light, below, but maybe even above, since it is beyond the observed universe. Eventually speed of spin can even accelerate, and this would explain the speeding up of the rate of the universe expansion.
    2. The size of the dot that had to spin before it inflated. Intuitively seems to me it has to be bigger then 0, otherwise what would spin? What about one Planck’s constant size? would it be sufficient? If yes, maybe this could somehow connect the Big Spin to the quantum theory, i am not sure i can figure out how. But this is just an idea.
    3. The number of axises the dot spins. It cant be infinitive, because it would need infinitive energy, and the Universe energy seems to be finite.
    4. And then you have the time and speed of light that is the other side of the same coin. Was the time same at the beginning of time as now, and with it the speed of light?If you start with constant spin speed at existing speed of light, and constant dot size to spin of Planck constant, it shouldn’t be hard to calculate the number of axises you need to create all the energy you have in the observed universe. Would its angular momentum be enough to create an all direction expanding universe? If yes, wouldn’t it be a finding with certain value?

    Dear Eugen: Your model
    would fit a linear “Hubble” expansion law. Unfortunately, as I said, the usual BB model has an enormous inflation, to start with, and now apparently we observe an accelerating inflation.
  • Another problem is that in a rotation appears a so called “Coriolis force”. On Earth, it causes “Trade Winds”. In space, it would cause something similar, on a larger scale, a systematic Coriolis deviation. an anisotropy of the universe. To my knowledge that has not been observed (although some other features seem present, of unknown origin). it would in particular affect cosmological photons (redder in one direction than in another).
  • Still another problem would be that the tremendous acceleration necessary initially would prevent the gathering of matter long present, and observed, as gravity would be nothing relative to that acceleration.The usual Big Bang is in part here to convince the public that the “Standard Model” is of some use (that’s my cynical view of it). Although, personally, I think it’s interesting by itself. It’s true it provides a neat explanation of the 3K cosmological background radiation…

Dear Patrice, If may i to make a summary of your theory just to figure out if i understood you correctly, You claim, since the observations show us that the Universe expansion is accelerating, logically should be expected that this acceleration existed from the beginning of the time, (when the so called Big Bang occurred). This theory solves the problem of need for inflation, which is not coherent with the existing paradigms of the science, like speed of light etc. Yet your theory raises new problems, like how to explain the flatness, homogeneity, and isotropy of the Universe as that droberts mentioned above.
I want to remain to you our previous correspondence in the subject where i propose an alternative theory called the big spin viz;
I am fully aware of me being very far from understanding the field and the Mathematics of it, and don’t want to be pretentious to understand to much about the subject. Yet i take the courage to suggest out of my ignorance an extra universe explanation to the very existence of all.
My theory says, “Since everything in the Universe is in movement, and the movement is the basic bloc to the very existence, why the universe itself shouldn’t be in movement?”.
In the link above i still suggested that the Big Bang should be called a Big Spin, while suggested all started with a Big Multi-axis spin of the universe.
You answer to my ideas was as follows;
Your model would fit a linear “Hubble” expansion law. Unfortunately, as I said, the usual BB model has an enormous inflation, to start with, and now apparently we observe an accelerating inflation.
Another problem is that in a rotation appears a so called “Coriolis force”. On Earth, it causes “Trade Winds”. In space, it would cause something similar, on a larger scale, a systematic Coriolis deviation. an anisotropy of the universe. To my knowledge that has not been observed (although some other features seem present, of unknown origin). it would in particular affect cosmological photons (redder in one direction than in another).

Although, personally, I think it’s interesting by itself. It’s true it provides a neat explanation of the 3K cosmological background radiation…
——————————————————–
After thinking again as an amateur, i thought, why to stick only to circular movement, there are after all many other forms of movement we know, just to mention some, expansion and contraction, vibration,linear straight movement, etc. All of them could be created/happened at the moment of the very beginning. And if to relate the theory to your model of “100 Billion Year Universe”, if the Universe started its expansion gradually, why couldn’t be that the movement like spin, vibration, etc. started gradually too, and its acceleration continuous to this days?
Yet i understand every mathematical model has to have some anchor presupposition. I would start with the speed of light, unless even in this phenomena were found some irregularities, which i don’t know about.
If to continue with the idea, Mathematically i would try to see what kind of movements of a Planck scale dot are necessary to explain the expansion of the universe from one point to the today vastness, and explain all the unexplained phenomenons that oppose the existing paradigms of the science.
As a supplementary of my naive theory of everything i would assume that the very creation happened, when certain type of movement (spin, vibration, etc.) caused the split of the nothingness at Planck scale to matter and antimatter, while certain kind of asymmetric movement made the matter more abundant then the antimatter.
