    Point or Geometrical Figure For most physicists, each quantum particle is a "point", which in the laboratory can be manipulated at their will and then create modern technology tools. Thank you for this work. But in Nature this "point" existed before the first physicist was born. If this "point"...

    DUALISM OF NATURE. It is known that everything in the world – both living and nonliving - consists of atoms and molecules. # All particles can be in motion. In chaotic motion they can attract, repel and collide each with other and the result can be creation of temperature. Temperature is some...

    What is a true, absolute vacuum? ⁠⁠A true vacuum is a state of T=0K. ⁠⁠A true vacuum is not stable; it is dynamic and filled ⁠with Dirac’s virtual particles ⁠⁠These Dirac's virtual particles constantly destroy smooth structure of T=0K ⁠⁠# ⁠⁠Waves fluctuate on the surface of the ocean, ⁠⁠but the...

    Spin is not spin. Particle is like-particle Wave is like-wave Wave-particle is maybe here or maybe there Wave-ψ- collapses and it is neither here nor there And you think those are physics? Those are metaphysics.

    Is electron's “spin” real? Fact. In 1925, Samuel Goudsmit and George Uhlenbeck claimed that some of the mischievous features of the hydrogen spectrum could be successfully explained by assuming that electrons act as if they actually have a spin. Opinion. Because electron is spinning with a...
