The latest one I've encountered features quantum geometry of "amplituhedrons", and even comes with illustrations, both enlightening:
and whimsical:
...both under the rubric "Scientists Discover a Jewel at the Heart of Quantum Physics" -- and including the 'modest' claim,
"Physicists have discovered a jewel-like geometric object that dramatically simplifies calculations of particle interactions and challenges the notion that space and time are fundamental components of reality.
“Physicists have discovered a jewel-like geometric object that dramatically simplifies calculations of particle interactions and challenges the notion that space and time are fundamental components of reality.”
Spirited: It sounds as if they’ve discovered something very like the very ancient Cosmic Egg conception found in Sanskrit called Brahmanda. Brahm means ‘Cosmos’
or ‘expanding.’ Anda means ‘Egg’. In line with this idea one Hindu belief was that Brahman (the uncreated Void from which all things emanate or evolve) spontaneously generated itself (the modern theory of abiogenesis) as something like a seed or singularity about 4.3 billion years ago, then by its’ own power has continued to unfold, expand and emanate all that exists with the implied assumption that living beings create themselves as there is no living Creator.
The illustrations are beautiful and the article is quite interesting. Thank you for posting them, dear brother in Christ!
Just fascinating, dear brother in Christ! What the amplituhedron suggests is that our notions of space and time are merely "constructs" emergent from a "deep geometry," and not primary facts of Reality. I.e., space and time are derivitative from something else....
Thank you so very much, dear TXnMA, for the links to these fascinating articles!
