When you think you're listening to several conversations at once, they tell me, you may really simply be time sharing - that is, listening a little bit to this one, a little bit to that one. Murray Gell-Mann biteconversationlisten Change image and share on social
The chaos can act as a magnifier of quantum fluctuations so that they can produce sizable effects in the world around us. But we know that that can happen often. Murray Gell-Mann actchaoseffect Change image and share on social
As a theoretical physicist, I feel at once proud and humble at the thought of the illustrious figures that have preceded me here to receive the greatest of all honors in science, the Nobel prize. Murray Gell-Mann feelfiguregreat Change image and share on social
Now, what that means is that there is fundamental indeterminacy from quantum mechanics, but besides that there are other sources of effective indeterminacy. Murray Gell-Mann effectivefundamentalindeterminacy Change image and share on social
In fact any experiment that measures a quantum effect is one in which the quantum effect is aligned with the behavior of some heavy, macroscopic object; that's how we measure it. Murray Gell-Mann alignbehavioreffect Change image and share on social
