Saturday Morning Physics | What is Classical and What is Quantum? Insights from the Assumptions of Physics Project
Gabriele Carcassi, Researcher (U-M Physics)
After one hundred years, quantum mechanics is still shrouded with mystery. Does it have to be? Is there a reasonable premise that both explains the failure of classical mechanics and recovers the quantum world? Join us on a journey to uncover the hidden assumptions of our physical theories.
