In this sense, quantum mechanics may point to a reality that is constructed or actualized through conscious observation, much like the simulated world of "The Matrix." Furthermore, the double-slit ...

At its roots, reality is described by the mysterious set of mathematical rules known as quantum mechanics ... Heisenberg’s math became known as matrix mechanics. Shortly thereafter, Austrian ...

Werner Heisenberg, who was an unknown physics postdoc at the time, had just cobbled together, in crude and unfamiliar mathematics, a framework that would shortly become what we know as “matrix ...

Werner Heisenberg’s matrix mechanics and Erwin Schrödinger’s wave mechanics—that transformed early quantum theory into the sophisticated discipline of quantum mechanics as we know it today. Register ...

Back in 1961, the Nobel Prize–winning physicist Eugene Wigner outlined a thought experiment that demonstrated one of the lesser-known paradoxes of quantum mechanics. The experiment shows how the ...
