The cosmic web is a large-scale structure of the universe, composed of galaxies and intergalactic gas, dark matter, and dark energy, that is interconnected by filaments of dense matter. The filaments form a complex network that defines the large-scale distribution of matter in the universe. The concept of the cosmic web is a key element in the current understanding of the structure and evolution of the universe.
Who has theorized that this is part of a larger structure?
The concept of the cosmic web was first proposed by the theoretical astrophysicist and cosmologist, Yakov Zeldovich in the 1970s. Zeldovich, along with other researchers, developed numerical simulations of structure formation in the universe that showed that matter would clump together in a web-like pattern, with dense knots (galaxies) connected by filaments of dark matter and gas. Since then, the cosmic web has been widely studied and confirmed through various observational and theoretical studies in astrophysics and cosmology.
I use the random module in Python from time to time, so I have experience with what you are describing. Random seeds are especially useful in data science because it allows others to repeat your work, one of the pillars of science.
Tying back to an earlier post, you can purchase a true random number generator that uses radioactive decay. Interestingly, they have âConscious Monkey Technologiesâ printed on the board.
I think it is the evidence that rules out quantum indeterminacy. Neurobiology takes place at a very big level in a very messy environment which wouldnât allow for quantum coherence or entanglement to have an effect.
How? We know the distance, energy, etc scales at which QM effects become important and we know what scales cellular chemistry operates on. The latter either permits the former or they donât. In neither case would the argument be circular.
Mental states are a product of neurobiology. Neurobiology operates in a regime in which quantum indeterminacy is not relevant. Therefore, quantum indeterminacy is not involved in mental states.
Thereâs something in my conversation with @T_aquaticus that I canât put my finger on for you at this moment.
Yet, I find myself wondering whether there has been an experiment to confirm whether there is a quantum change that occurs relative to when a person makes a decision.
