In the strange world of quantum physics, particles dematerialized themselves into waves (such as in transistors) and rematerialized themselves later into particles. However, the necessity of abandoning conventional ways of thinking about the world, and finding a radically new way – quantum mechanics – can be understood by any intelligent person willing to spend some time concentrating hard. So even in the strange world of Quantum Mechanics psychics and mystics cannot find scientific sanctuary. Bermuda_Triangle Well, it was inevitable. I don't mean that it could be anywhere. In the strange world of quantum mechanics, a thing is everywhere until you look at it. A classic area for cognitive dissonance in science is the tension between the strange world of quantum mechanics at the atomic or subatomic level and the physical behavior of the macroscopic world we see and touch. An excellent elementary introduction to quantum mechanics is Richard Feynman's QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter . Conveying that understanding is the purpose of this .. Anyone who writes about the weird stuff that happens in this world has to, at some point, tackle two topics: Bigfoot, and the Bermuda Triangle. The strange world of quantum mechanics can provide a way to surpass limits in speed, efficiency and accuracy of computing, communications and measurement, according to research by MIT scientist Seth Lloyd. The violation of locality only occurs within our macrosopic description of the quantum event. A professor of applied physics at Caltech, he can use the amplifier to measure the behavior of tiny mechanical devices that operate at the boundary between classical physics and the strange world of quantum mechanics. Recent experiments have begun to demonstrate how the weird world of quantum mechanics gives way to the familiarity of everyday experience.
