Quantum Magic - 101

About this ebook
A retired nuclear engineer, I provide this short paper to provoke the young with an interest in physics. Specifically the physics of quantum mechanics, which thanks to the educational systems currently in vogue in the United States, is a distant and frightening proposition even for those with a mathematical or scientific leaning. The young may be as intrigued as I was. Adults as well! Enjoy.

Quantum Magic - 101 - Charlie Marino
Quantum Magic 101
When viewing mathematical reality when it is beyond any current level of understanding, magic or gods are commonly invoked by humans. Clarke famously said, Any sufficiently advanced science will appear as magic.
When showing humans without fire how to create it, magic. When you mix saltpeter, sulfur, and coal together, and create an explosive, magic. When you fire a rifle to kill at a distance to people with spears and bows, magic. When such people see an airplane fly, magic. When you grow and refine mold on bread to destroy a life-killing infection, magic. All of it is science and the science of the 20th century was almost exclusively Newtonian, using what is referred to as the scientific method
. Quantum Magic was first revealed then, but even the mathematical wizards who did the revealing – such as Plank and Heisenberg - found the results to be a disturbing departure from their concepts of reality.
When someone of lesser technology meets someone of greater technology, that is what happens. Quantum Mechanics is far more shocking. Not merely improvements that eventually the lesser beings could understand once they too had horses or started mining metals. Cause and effect no longer worked. Objects positive or negative could be a third thing. Information could time travel backward. This was true magic. If you are not frightened and awed by it, you clearly do not understand it.
I do not mean to disparage the scientific method. It gave us everything from the inclined plane, steam engines, electricity, and culminated in the electromagnetic equations of Maxwell and the special relativity of Einstein. That’s as far as it went, aside from improved engineering of those discoveries. Muggles are folk experienced in three-dimensional, sub-relativistic Newtonian existence. Immersed in their five senses. They have little ability or desire to understand the underlying quantum magic reality of the universe. Students of science, math, and the truth must embrace their unusual though limited abilities to pierce this veil. This paper is only a preface for the young in exploring the quantum realm.
Since it is a first taste, the mathematics is limited. In fact, many of the concepts herein may be understood by the aspiring student without yet achieving proficiency in related mathematics by which these results were derived. However, for those students who desire to become wizards themselves, it will not be possible without a fluid understanding of math and physics. These are your magic wands.
The first part details specific aspects of Muggle reality with which the student is expected to be fluent. You must have this knowledge at your fingertips. While boring or elementary feeling to some, it is a necessary step by which you shall differentiate yourself from the Muggles who cannot create and barely follow even such intuitive matters. They will never stretch their minds past this point in the required directions.
The second part of the paper is truly astonishing. It elucidates matters which have no counterpart in Muggle (Newtonian) reality. Such matters include multiple dimensions, dark matter & dark energy, the origin and expansion of the universe, and other exciting knowledge. Stretch your minds as I list the fundamental spells in the form of a few key equations and
