RE: Observation of new phenomena at the LHC at CERN - flavor anomalies, beauty, charm and penguins
I have heard of this theory that man, as an Observer of the process, can have a significant impact on what is happening. How do you think the fact that the number of electrons more muons in the experiment with the Collider can be attributed to the Observer effect?
I am not really understanding the questions. I will interpolate and try to answer something. Please come back to me if necessary. The theory behind relies on the quantum world, which means that many results are possible when one single collision occurs. However, when billions of collisions occur, we can start using statistics to dig into the results and identify the signals that we are after with a very good accuracy. In all error associated with the measurements, there is always a statistical component related to this. Therefore, this is well accounted for when a claim for an excess is made.
I hope it helps :)
There is a theory that the result of the observation depends not only on external factors, but even from what people watching the experiment. From his expectations too. These cognitive distortions also cause for some error in the analysis of the obtained data. Therefore, different scholars, conducting one and the same experience, can receive different numbers.
Let's wait for the completion of the experiment with the Collider. Will see what happens=))) (sorry for my bad English)
That's not how it works though
But how?
The only effect we have on quantum mechanics comes from our tools, its not our mind.
Everything can be...
what?
In science too much unknown to give accurate answers, I think. Today can be faithful to one theory, and tomorrow absolutely another.
It seems to me that the theory of cognitive distortions the experiments can be true=))
Actually, you may be trying to apply a theory (quantum mechanics() that works at the microscopic level to the macroscopic one. Observations are indeed acting on the nature of the system.
Although here it is valid at the microscopic level (the hard process of the collision obeys to the laws of the quantum world), when we are far enough from the collision point (where the detectors are), those effects are not there anymore.
However, this is true that the results of each collision will be different. As I said before, this is why we need to repeat it a lot :)
I agree with You, @lemouth=))) have a wonderful Pushkin poem. It seems contemporary, though written over a hundred fifty years ago.
The translation is not very good. The other is not found
