Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / Why do we still use a random universe assumption, when our universe is quantized
« on: 24/01/2017 16:22:34 »
A quantum universe implies that there are only a finite number of distinct states and that not all states are possible. For example, there are five energy levels for the hydrogen atom, each of which requires a very specific photon energy. There is nothing random about this.
The random universe assumption assumes everything has a finite probability, which is not the case in a quantum universe. A quantum universe has 1.0 or 0.0 odds; on or off.
