Meenu Kumari on quantum chaos

[@deeliciousplum]

I love Meenu Kumari's wonderful passion for the research she is engaging in. On a gentle closing note, this is the first PI talk where the hosts constantly (from start to finish) interrupted their valued guest. With that said, I am thankful for PI for inviting wonderful, insightful, and igniting speakers.

[@BlueGiant69202]

Mastering the art of conversation is difficult on both sides. The interruptions stuck out like sore thumbs but maybe it's a good thing that can be viewed as practice with friends because being interrupted can occur quite often at conferences and in everyday conversation. It can be a good thing for an expert to converse with non-experts too. It forces the expert out of technical language and jargon and makes them think a bit more about how to word things in a way that non-experts will understand. It might prove useful too if a young female journalist from the Butterflies Children's Media Center in Delhi, India wanted to interview a female theoretical physicist from India about her life and work.

My mom told me if I couldn't say something nice, to keep my mouth shut. I'll do what mom said. I love it when the host allows the guest to finish a thought.

[@Rohit-oz1or]

Really proud of the Indian scientist. She shows real passion and understanding of the subject

[@teashea1]

Very excellent presentation - smart, articulate trio - and very good production values; especially the audio

[@Neo-ui8we]

Thanks for hosting her. From 22 -33 (roughly 11 min) , insightful discussion on the topic.

[@L2p2]

a wonderful interview and discussion. I am very curious about how quantum information theory could help resolve the 100 year old problem. There seems to be some work in the area. The ideas of Mark Van Ramsdonk, Leonard Susskind and Gerald H'ooft come to mind (holographic principle, quantum entanglement leading to emergence of space, ER = EPR -whatever that really means.

[@russchadwell]

So often we actually find that previous people were not really "wrong". We find that there's simple more to the story.

[@shashikantphatak3824]

Nice seeing your interview on perimeter. Great. I am proud of your progress. All the best for your future progress

[@sumitkumarpandey7370]

❤ 22-08-2023 I met her . She is so kind and intelligent ❤

[@richardsrichards2984]

About the entanglement...can you measure the spins without collapsing the entanglement....ie to recover original spin superposition after the measurements...and good presentation btw.

[@nmarbletoe8210]

if a particle's spin is measured then its entanglement gets transferred to the measuring apparatus, i think

[@enterprisesoftwarearchitect]

Random: On the background chalkboard they actually had quantum gate diagrams. And someone has contact lenses now?

[@MONTISINGHCUSB123]

She studied physics form Manish Srivastava sir in gaya

[@arlenestanton9955]

Very difficult to understand the guest, closed captioning helps a lot

[@believejesusislord578]

When she says that quantum physics should merge with classical physics- that’s not true. The quantum world and quantum application on a macro scale is slated as not understood because it violates all known classical laws. It will not merge - it will bring to the forefront the erroneous nature of the classical model

[@orthodium]

Well the real world is de-facto unified, and the only true boundaries between states of matter and energy is just that of scale and distances on which they manifest, and which determines which specific combination of forces/fields that are at play in any given scenario. Nothing else suggests an existence of discrete and incongruent sets of natural laws concurrently existing in one reality.

[@andyoates8392]

If “most” experiments confirm the theory of quantum mechanics. What method can be used to describe the anomalous results that don’t confirm quantum theory?

[@JustNow42]

There seems not to be any difference between a flipped coin that is up in the air and its measurement when landing and a particle in superposition ( say up and down) and it's measurement. What is then so strange about that? It seems very acceptable. The difference seems only that the coinflip has always a 50% chance

[@enterprisesoftwarearchitect]

It’s not been definitively shown that “Quantum States” exist - but they are perfect for calculating probabilities.

[@nmarbletoe8210]

5:24 \ "explains supperposition" , Schrodinger made it up to show how weird it would be

[@schmetterling4477]

Yes, but all he really proved was that he didn't understand the theory.

[@BlueGiant69202]

Thank you for sharing this conversation. I'm telling everyone at the Widget Factory that we are going to be making green widgets today!

[@kusamit]

The best part of the story is that she is from Gaya a very small town in the state of Bihar (India). She did her entire schooling from this small nondescript town (happens to be my hometown as well). So proud of her.

[@michaelelbert5798]

Its not both it's a wave until it's a partical.

[@jmanj3917]

I'm almost finished watching this video, and I'll be doggoned if I can figure out what these disadvantages were that your guest had to overcome. She's a very smart woman. She is from a free country. She has a skin tone that supposedly makes her a "minority" in, and thus a recipient of the more beneficial policies of, the western academic world (among many other beneficial policy aspects of our society). This minority status is despite the fact that she is from the country with the second highest population in the world. She speaks English, so the availability of access to the unofficial official language in which science is presented and preserved, was clearly present. Is it maybe because she wasn't raised in an extremely wealthy family? I don't know her background, but I do know that the people who score in the top two percent of standardized academic tests, tend to be offered scholarships in order to attract them to various institutions. So, someone, please tell me why both of the hosts continue to reference her "disadvantages". If you haven't derived my point, it's this: The way you not only allow such ridiculousness as the constant whining about disadvantages to continue to exist, but you actively cultivate such nonsense is something that I believed to be below the Perimeter Institute. That "disadvantaged" horse stopped being capable of riding a long time ago. So, please, stop beating it to serve your own political agenda, whatever it might be today. It really is shameful.

[@schmetterling4477]

Your racism is showing. Tuck it back in. It's ugly.

[@russchadwell]

Perhaps for entanglement the space property is simply gone.

[@nmarbletoe8210]

yes in a way. entanglement information is non-local

[@muralikrishnamurthy4922]

Excellent presentation of cutting edge quantum mechanics in simple terms .

[@primemagi]

Meenu Kumari, well done, long may continue… you have learned quantum like others well to repeat it. Physic used to be real with classical physic. There was only head or tail, then came the con men and created a hallow coin weighted on one edge to stand presenting head and tail which operator decide which? This eliminated hard work and soon many became con men and made quantum popular. So physic became fiction. They took picture of starlight bent by sun’s corona matter (space dust & plasma) and lied telling public it was bent by gravity to establish GR. Today every thing sells with quantum label, even quantum crap. They pretend quantum cryptography make finance secure. At the same time banks hide the billions they loose on line. over 90% of current model of space and matter is fiction and none of you care because you get paid to be certified to repeat the dogmas not to do real science. If man becomes civilised and intelligent, they will be able to develop technology to see photon, electron, nuclei and their interaction with gravity as we have and replaced probability with fact and GR with real gravity.

You know you've played too many video games if you read "Quantum chads" rather than "Quantum chaos"

[@wulphstein]

Bleepety blooo! Why don't you invent something real that we can be impressed by?

[@ossiedunstan4419]

The only chaos in Quantum is humanity's failure to understand it, Why are you calling ignorance chaos.

[@schmetterling4477]

Humanity understood quantum mechanics just fine around the late 1920s. That you still don't understand it is a function of your intellectual laziness.
