Bloch Sphere Superposition: Using a tesseract-inspired projection of Bloch spheres, we can represent the superposition of n wave functions simultaneously. Here, the wave function is modeled as a Gaussian wave packet to localize it within a unit probability space. This framework suggests that Fourier analysis could be applied to deconstruct quantum measurement noise, implying that the stochastic nature of quantum probabilities might be resolvable into effectively predictable components. #bloch #sphere #quantum #quantumphysics #quantummechanics #computing #computerscience #linearalgebra #entanglement #theoreticalphysics #physics #computerscience #engineering #programming #math #maths #mathematician #geometry #topology #science #interesting #quantumcomputing #hilbertspace #trigonometry #calculus #abstractalgebra #composer #soundtrack #shortfilms #blender

I updated my Schrรถdinger equation visuals. This time, I included the unbounded inner product Gaussian in the first 2 animations, and used the more familiar localized inner product for the last. #Schrรถdinger #quantum #quantumphysics #quantummechanics #physics #gauss #maths #mathematician #mathematics #programming #engineering #wavefunction #calculus #linearalgebra #interesting #science #3danimation #geometry #topology #geometrynodes

Finally getting around to learning 3js! I figured the wave packet animation was a good first project. I started by commenting out each step I'd take in Geometry Nodes. Then I went through line by learning how code each element. It's helping me think outside the box, and incorporating interactive elements. I'm looking forward to shader fx with GLSL too. #3js #programmer #programming #javascript #html #developer #math #physic #quantumphysics #quantummechanics #wave #geometry #trigonometry #calculus #computerscience

Entanglement describes a shared unified quantum state between two or more particles. However, I like to think of it as an observation anomaly attributed to the way we analyze data. For instance, the frame drag in this animation creates the illusion of multiple particles (the larger sphere), and the smaller points represent its path history. The implications of this framework imply that entangled particles are the same particle, and the way we measure their position (with respect to time) creates the illusion of a superposition. This framework doesn't void the successful predictions we've made using quantum mechanics, but reframes the philosophy of observation at a more fundamental level. And it just looks cool imo. #quantum #entanglement #quantumentanglement #quantumphysics #quantummechanics #physics #particle #math #science #engineering #interesting #mathematics #maths #theoreticalphysics #superposition #cern #ligo #fermilab #geometry #trigonometry #calculus #3danimation #simulation #blenderanimation #pattern #anomaly #4thofjuly #july4th #july

A ping pong function is an oscillating function similar to arcsin(sin(x)) used to produce a sawtooth (triangle) wave. By differentiating the inputs' time functions, we can create a virtual particle accelerator in a box. We can leave a trail of particles as the path history by joining the geometry of the particle's current position to its previous ones. #particle #particleaccelerator #cern #ligo #fermilab #caltech #mit #stanford #princeton #harvard #yale #geometry #calculus #trigonometry #math #mathematician #programming #simulation #blender #3danimation #3dart #3dartist #quantum #quantumphysics #quantummechanics #probability #statistics #engineering
