Einstein’s Explanation of the Unexplainable
Additionally, it assumes it exists in a superposition of several eigenstates and only reduces or COLLAPSES to a particle when it interacts with the external world.
While Einstein defined gravity in terms of how energy density of space effects the geometry of space-time.
THEREFORE ONE CAN PROVIDE A BRIDGE BETWEEN QUANTUM MECHANICS AND RELATIVITY DEFINITION OF GRAVITY IF ONE CAN SHOW HOW AND WHY ENERGY DENSITY OF SPACE IS CONCENTRATED IN QUANTIZED UNITS OF SPACE TIME IN TERMS A GEOMETRY OF SPACE TIME.
But before we can understand how to do this we need to establish a connection between the mathematical evolution of the wave function, its collapse and the physical evolution of both electromagnetic and gravity waves. This can be accomplished because as was mentioned earlier in Relativity evolution of space-time is the result of an electromagnetic wave while, as was also mentioned earlier the wave function represents how a Quantum environment evolves to create a particle.
This commonality suggests the wave function MAY BE a mathematical representation of an electromagnetic wave in space-time. This means to derive the reason for its collapse in terms of space-time one must physically connect its evolution to it.
This can be done by using the science of wave mechanics and the fact that an electromagnetic wave moves continuously through space-time unless it is prevented from moving through time by its energy interacting with objects or an observer in three-dimensional space, resulting in its energy confined to it. The science of wave mechanics also tells us the three-dimensional “walls” of this confinement will result in its energy being reflected back on itself thereby creating a resonant or standing wave in three-dimensional space. This would cause the energy of an electromagnetic wave to be concentrated at the point in space were a particle would be found. Additionally, wave mechanics also tells us the energy of a resonant system such as a standing wave can only take on the discrete or quantized values associated with its fundamental or a harmonic of its fundamental frequency that the wave function associates with a particle. Putting it another way one can explain how and why the wave function reduces or COLLAPSES to a particle when it interacts with the external world if one assumes it is mathematical representation of an electromagnetic wave in space-time.
The boundaries or “walls” of its confinement would be defined by its wave properties. If an electromagnetic wave is prevented from moving through time it will be reflected back on itself. However, that reflected wave still cannot move through time therefore it will be reflected back creating a standing wave. The wave itself defines its boundaries because if it cannot move though time it MUST STAND in place in the form of a standing wave called a photon. Putting it another way a particle is a wave that is moving ONLY IN time and NOT THROUGH time and space.
In other words, if an electromagnetic or any energy wave is prevented from moving through space time either by being observed or encountering an object it is reduced or “Collapses” to a form a standing wave that would define the quantized energy quantum mechanics associates with a particle.
As was mentioned earlier Einstein defined gravity in terms of how energy density of space effects the geometry of space-time.
Therefore, one can define why gravity is quantized in terms of the how relativity defines the energy density of space in terms of the presence of a quantized unit of energy or a particle ofmatter.
This provides a bridge between quantum mechanics and relativity in terms of how it CAN define the quantization of the mass associated with a particle and therefore its gravitational potential
