Welcome to the strange new world of quantum biology. As scientist 'entangle' the motion of pairs of atoms for the first time, which they say may be used to power super fast computers of the future, we look at the strange world of quantum mechanics. Due to a strange quantum mechanical duality, Jerry is both in Germany today, and in Wheaton, IL. It involves the strange world of quantum mechanics. Ever since Isaac Newton developed his laws of motion, philosophers and some scientists have been pondering the notion of free will. It is quantum mechanics that adds up to normality. The weird world of quantum mechanics includes innumerable counterintuitive phenomena. UA physicists glimpse a demon whose existence would violate the laws of physics – but in the strange world of quantum mechanics, they discover that subatomic particles sometimes behave in seemingly demonic ways. Quantum mechanics starts with the simple idea that energy does not come in just any amount; it comes in discrete chunks, called quanta. On the face of things, quantum mechanics and the biological sciences do not mix. And the answer to this question turns out to be: quantum mechanics. On a macroscopic scale the universe appears very rational, and yet on closer inspection things are not quite what they seem. The weird world of quantum mechanics. This is an exceptionally accessible, accurate, and nontechnical introduction to quantum mechanics.
