Observer

In special relativity there is no traveling observer. They is only stationary observer. Traveling observer leads to twin paradox. Special relativity treats the twin paradox trivially. This is a mistake. Because of this mistake, all sorts of mythology has crept into science, or rather physics. It's like alchemy to chemistry. Time travel, many worlds theory etc. These leads to lot of contradictions. It may be good for fiction but not for science. What we need are good solid answers, these concepts are really flimsy. They are not practical no experiential proof is available.

Special Relativity treats both stationary observer and traveling observer as same. That they have same qualities, this is done without any proof. For instance first proof of special relativity mu-meson falling from the sky, it trys to treat that their is an observer in mu-meson, as well as the stationary observer sitting on earth. This is not practical, there is no clock that falls with mu-meson.

Special relativity treats as there are clocks everywhere, each point do space have a different clock and worse than that these clocks are all synchronised. Then the traveling observer also have a different set of clocks that travels with him, and each point in space has a different clock and they are all synchronised with the traveling observer. These assumptions are not practical, and don't have experimental proof, which results in twin paradox.

According to quantum theory when an observer is present things behave very differently. Photons when we observe behave like particles, when not behaves like waves. Special relativity is based on velocity of light, so, the same theory should be applied. Moving observer with a light clock, observing the stationary observer, will not see the same as the, stationary observer. One observer sees waves - with special relativity, other observer sees particles - without relativity. Therefore traveling clock will run slower to a stationary observer. But when the traveling clock also have an observer, either light behaves completely like a particle and light will not have constant velocity to both observers or to one of the observer (more study necessary to find out the circumstances) it behaves like a wave and particle to the other observer. Another important factor is it is known that doplar effect is seen in living light sources. This also should be taken into account.

This explanation can explain twin paradox.

Why world is not imaginary

Suppose there is a mountain and then there are people who sees the mountain. Each one who sees the mountain has a mental picture of the mountain in their brain. This can be represented by a set of data. Each one who sees the mountain will have a set of data. Mostly each of these data sets will be different. Further if one observer moves the set of data will change.

Then suppose that there is no mountain but only different data sets in the brains of each observer. When the observer moves the movement data is used in calculating a new data set continuously. All the data in these sets will be enormous.

Then consider the mountain is real and it's location, size and other details are given by a data set. Then also the location and movement of each observer is given by data sets. All this data will be a finite number.

When you consider the two options, imaginary mountain needs a large amount of data compared with the existence of a real mountain.

Therefore on the theory of minimizing data mountain should exist outside the imagination of the observer. Further it can be assumed that the world is real and not imaginary inside the observers brain.

Why Quantum theory instead of Classical Theory?
Using randomness uses less data than the Classical theory?
If so it will be proof why the world is Quantum.
If wave particle duality consumes less data than either waves or particles, that will be a good enough proof why duality exists.
If we can prove that if wave remains after observation need more data than becoming a particle that will be a good enough proof about the wave particle duality.

Human Brain and Quantum Theory

Lot of philosophers have said that God is the super mind. Each human being have a mind. All these minds are different. And at the same time all these minds have lot of similarities. If we create the super mind with all the good qualities of all of humans we get a super mind - this is one of the interpretation of God.

This human super mind has to be different that of a lion or any other animal. Lions vision is catered to find a pray. This shows that the makeup of a lions brain is very different of humans. The male lion kills the cubs not sired by him, then the mother of the cubs willingly cohabit with it's cub killer. This behavior is nonexistent in humans. So configuration of brains of lions and humans are very different. God of lions will be different from God of humans.

The world is perceived by our brains. When we define the qualities and attributes of the world around us, we assume that we can do a good job doing it independent of our brains. This is a mistake. It is evident from the discoveries of quantum theory and connected subjects of physics.

For instance 1+1 = 2 or A and B is true if and only if A is true and B is true, these are eternal truths according to our brain. What if we are wrong! What if these are just constructs of our brains. suppose someone has a gut feeling that 1+1 is not 2. Then we say that he is a lunatic. We have a group of people who has a gut feeling that 1+1 = 2. These are the normal people, these are the scientists and so on.

These normal people cannot comprehend how two distant particles can be entangled in such a way when qualities of one is derived the distant other half derives the opposite. When it is observed entities behave like particles and when unobserved behaves like waves.

The classical theories that can be comprehended by our brains cannot explain these pronominal.

If at some stage we can come up with a theory that could explain these effects then we can put in our basket of understanding our environment, what is happening. Sometimes it may not be possible. At the time when people considered the earth is flat not a globe they could not comprehend certain phenomena. They could not in the beginning understand that world is a globe even after someone explained it. In this way gradually people started believing earth is a globe. Now if someone say it is flat he will be considered as a lunatic

Similarly try to explain the properties of a torus to a two dimensional creature. If the torus is vertical and cut by a horizontal plane we get only two circles. Suppose the torus is horizontal the the circles will be one inside the other. If the torus is slanted the circles will not have the same center. This is what a two dimensional creature will see. In no way you will be able to explain to this two dimensional creature, what a torus is. But there is a certain tool where it can be done. It is mathematics! Using a algebraic equation of a torus, a two dimensional creature will be able to know it's properties. In this way using mathematics we have come to know most of the intricate details of our surroundings. But we can never be able to know all the details. When a new theory in physics is formed we come to know certain details. But we miss a lot.

Human Brain and Space

Hither to unexplained phenomena, entanglement and wave particle duality, may have roots related not to some aspect of space but some aspect related to human brain.

These are observer related problems. Two far apart electrons having opposite spins but only realized at the time of measurement. When one particle is measured the spin of the entangled particle will be the opposite of the first measured result.

These are related to measurement or observation. measurement and observation is done by human observers. Their brains is the main tool used for these observations.

You can argue that, what if a computer does the observation, but even here the architect of the computer is a human.

Also there is an argument, if there is no human observer does the sun not rise? Therefore happenings of the universe should be independent of human observers. But in wave particle duality experiments when the experiment is designed to observe the photon the fringe pattern disappear and it acts like a particle.

The space exists independent of human observer, but, certain aspects of the space may be related to the observer. After all observation is poking the system. This effect of poking changes the system. Without poking there is no observation.

In classical physics the poking is assumed to be so minimal that the system is assumed to be the same. In reality this is not true. When the observation shifts to smaller and smaller levels, the effect of observer starts to affect the system that is being observed.

 We see space, we touch space, we live in space. So human brain interprets space. That is how we see, touch and live in space.

Current mathematics and physics may not give the whole picture of space. Mathematics and Physics are all human observer related.
