New Quantum Time Order Discovered

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


A University of Queensland-led international team of researchers say they have discovered “a new kind of quantum time order”. Researchers say “Time has a fundamentally different character in quantum mechanics and in general relativity.”

UQ physicist Dr Magdalena Zych said the discovery arose from an experiment the team designed to bring together elements of the two big – but contradictory – physics theories developed in the past century.

“Our proposal sought to discover: what happens when an object massive enough to influence the flow of time is placed in a quantum state?” Dr Zych said.

Quantum events can unfold in a “new time order”, the researchers say

She said Einstein’s theory described how the presence of a massive object slowed time.

“Imagine two space ships, asked to fire at each other at a specified time while dodging the other’s attack,” she said.

“If either fires too early, it will destroy the other.”

“In Einstein’s theory, a powerful enemy could use the principles of general relativity by placing a massive object – like a planet – closer to one ship to slow the passing of time.”

“Because of the time lag, the ship furthest away from the massive object will fire earlier, destroying the other.”

Dr Zych said the second theory, of quantum mechanics, says any object can be in a state of “superposition”

“This means it can be found in different states – think Schrodinger’s cat,” she said.

Dr Zych said using the theory of quantum mechanics, if the enemy put the planet into a state of “quantum superposition”, then time also should be disrupted.

“There would be a new way for the order of events to unfold, with neither of the events being first or second – but in a genuine quantum state of being both first and second,” she said.

UQ researcher Dr Fabio Costa said although “a superposition of planets” as described in the paper — may never be possible, technology allowed a simulation of how time works in the quantum world – without using gravity.

“Even if the experiment can never be done, the study is relevant for future technologies,” Dr Costa said.

“We are currently working towards quantum computers that – very simply speaking – could effectively jump through time to perform their operations much more efficiently than devices operating in fixed sequence in time, as we know it in our ‘normal’ world.”

      This is also true. A fly for instance, only lives a fraction of the time a human being does. One can say the fly also lives a completed life barring being killed off early like a human as well. Even though its life span is less than a human. This is the same theory as a planet interceding in time due to its size and the other object being of less size.

      Its great that you can quantify both in theyre own technical way..
