When Gravity Breaks Down
There appears to be a very basic error in this writeup. I say there appears to be because it seems to be so easy to misunderstand language used in casual descriptions of quantum mechanics. Neither I nor the writer is a lawyer. My apologies if I misunderstood what was written. My experience here in general is when something seems very clearly wrong, it is my misunderstanding. None the less...<p>Quantum mechanics does not say a particle can be in two places at the same time. A wave function does not say a particle is at point A AND point b. The wave function says the particele is at point A OR point B.<p>To take this a step further, if the particle has an electric field, then the wave function would look like the following:<p>(particle at A AND electric field around point A) OR (particle at B AND electric field around point B)<p>The wave function would NOT be:<p>(particle at A OR particle at B) AND (electric field around A OR electric field around B)<p>And also not:<p>(particle at A AND particle at B) AND (electric field around A and B)<p>Presumably the same applies to a gravitational field.
