Gordon's Notes

On the one hand, completely boring. Another test of QM is in complete agreement with theory. On the other hand, this is almost as creepy ...

I really need to study, so I'm noting these for future reading. These are a set of Aaronson posts, found by tracing back from the latest...

Years ago I used to teach Bayes theorem to informatics grad students. I was reassigned to other lectures though. Truth is, I had a hard ti...

From the professor (Scott Aaronson of Shtetl Optimized) who gave us his lectures on theoretical computer science , we now have PHYS771 Quant...

A non-specialist has written a review of quantum computer factoring that matches what I've been reading from my physics blogs. Quantum ...

Why are mathematical models so insanely good at making predictions about the physical universe? Is this a testament to the general modeling...

Sean "Cosmic Varience" Carroll has indexed his personal favorite posts . A true feast for the physics fan.

Promotion has sapped the output of my favorite physics bloggers, so I'm grateful to FMH for my physics fix: Shadow World: Science News ...

Today it seems that particles are merely secondary .... Nonlocality of a Single Particle Demonstrated Without Objections ... The scientists ...

After a series of posts with only a marginal connection to physics, CV has returned with a nice discussion of the Higgs particle: Higgs 101 ...

I'm almost caught up with modern physics, but it's taken a toll. It's started my reading a few months ago when I realized I'...

There's no way I have time to do this post justice, but I'll put something up anyway. Maybe I'll fill it in later. What do thes...

I skimmed the SciAM article on building a home "quantum eraser" , but I didn't appreciate that the 1982 experiment is just one...

Nature, one of the two preeminent journals of science has dedicated a "science fiction" issue to examination of the multiverse and...

I've been reading Sean Carroll's posts on Cosmic Variance , not realizing until now that he's a research associate at my alma ma...

This post is partly a pursuit of my ongoing interest in the philosophical interpretations of quantum reality , but it's mostly a story o...

For the photon, there is neither time nor distance. Every destination takes no time at all to reach, which is, of course, also true of non-l...

I was reviewing Gribbin's " Kittens " book, when I came across a reasonable review written by Newt Gingrich . It wasn't a...

CV talks about manufacturing universes that vanish as an evaporating black hole.... How Did the Universe Start? | Cosmic Variance ... The ba...

A week or so ago I commented on recent research that both affirmed instantaneous non-local correlation of entangled quantum entities and at...
