The evidence for the important roles that quantum ideas like complementarity, entanglement, dispersive states, and non-Boolean logic play in mental processes is growing now in the study of consciousness. While utilising formal aspects found in quantum physics, corresponding quantum-based approaches handle primarily mental (psychological) phenomena utilising some of the concepts of quantum mechanics or quantum field theory. This new field of study has been given the name "quantum cognition or quantum consciousness." The phrase "non-commutative structures in cognition" would be a better descript ..read more

The study of phenomena like fundamental vision and photosynthetic processes as well as bird navigation have all been extensively studied in the realm of quantum biology during the past ten years. In theory, research into quantum effects in intricate biological systems dates back to the infancy of quantum physics. But it hasn't really gained prominence as an idea that can be tested scientifically until recently. The dispute has broad implications, but for here in this post, The focus is on the area of research where direct experimental evaluations of alleged quantum effects are most feasible-ph ..read more

Quantum optics is the study and application of the quantum interactions of light with matter and is an active and expanding field of experiment and theory. Progress in the development of light sources and detection techniques since the early 1980s has allowed increasingly sophisticated optical tests of the foundations of quantum mechanics. Basic quantum effects such as single photon interference and entangled states of two or more photons with highly correlated properties (such as polarization direction) have been generated with Quantum Optics. So it is a phenomenal science in probing the fund ..read more

The term "quantum computing" refers to a system that computes outputs using quantum mechanics. The tiniest discrete unit of any physical attribute is known in physics as a quantum. The majority of the time, it alludes to the characteristics of atomic or subatomic particles like electrons, neutrinos, and photons. The fundamental piece of information in quantum computing is a qubit. Although they function similarly to bits in classical computing, qubits exhibit completely distinct behaviour. Unlike qubits, which can store a superposition of all possible states, traditional bits are binary and ca ..read more

Quantum gravity seeks to describe gravity according to the principles of quantum mechanics. The theory of relativity, which applies at the biggest sizes, and the quantum theory, which describes physics at the lowest scales (atoms and subatomic particles), are currently the two fundamental branches of our understanding of nature (gravity, space, and time). With a single set of guiding principles, quantum gravity aims to integrate these various domains into a single account of nature. Loop quantum gravity, spin foam models, string theory, causal set theory, shape dynamics, twistor theory, and as ..read more

Quantum chromodynamics, or QCD, as it is referred to in high-energy physics, is the quantum field theory that describes the strong interactions. It is the SU(3) gauge theory of the current standard model for elementary particles and forces, SU3 x SU2 X U1 , which encompasses the strong, electromagnetic, and weak interactions. The symmetry group of QCD, with its eight conserved charges, is referred to as color SU(3). As is characteristic of quantum field theories, each field may be described in terms of quantum waves or particles. Because it is a gauge field theory, the fields that carry the fo ..read more

Nuclear physics is the study of atomic nuclei, their constituents, and the interactions that hold them together. Nuclei are the massive cores at the center of atoms and are made up of protons and neutrons (which are called hadrons) which determine the element identity and isotope, and some of the radioactive processes . Nuclei make up most of the visible mass around us, and are critical to the inner workings of stars, the origin of chemical elements, and the early universe. The hadrons themselves are composites of more fundamental particles known as quarks and gluons and their interactions lea ..read more

In the conventional view, "stuff" is made of atoms. The atoms are made of electrons, protons and neutrons. High Energy Physics deals with the question of what the electrons, protons and neutrons are made of. It is called "high energy" because experimentally one needs very high energy probes to try to take these "elementary particles" apart. By our current understanding, these elementary particles are excitations of the quantum fields that also govern their interactions. By probing into the most basic componets of matter and radiation , Particle Physics (or the High Energy Physics) has discover ..read more
