There is a certain level of similarity between NLP & QMNLP = Neuro-linguistic programming: This is a method invented in the 1970's by a linguist, physiologist, and anthropologist. It is a method used to change behavior, i.e. develop good habits and eliminate negative ones.

It relies on the assumption that the intuition of the surrounding universe is a system of beliefs, inside which we act and that we can call universe. But every one has it own system of beliefs. Communication problems can be generated by the differences between those system of beliefs

Quantum Mechanics is a mathematically rigorous, and extremely successful theory used to explain and predict behavior of extremely small (subatomic) particles.

It relies on the assumption that observations of the surrounding universe is organized in a set of operators called the observables. The fact that those operators do not commute creates fuzziness in classical simultaneous observations. Following the leading interpretation, (the Copenhagen interpretation) a measure is an interaction between a macroscopic entity (the observer) and the microscopic system that decides the result of the observation. Therefore, the observer plays a fundamental role in the construction of the universe, therefore the universe is linked to the existence of observers

We see here a possible similarity. The systems of beliefs of NLP can be considered as set of operators of the quantum mechanics. They create an illusion of surrounding universe and they are linked to designated actors (observers). The fuzziness following the non commutation of operators in quantum mechanics is analogous to discrepancies in the meaning (interpretation) of facts insides different system of beliefs of NLP

What is true relativity or quantum mechanics?

Einstein's work on the Photoelectric effect, which won him the Nobel prize in 1921 was a bulwark of Quantum Mechanics. Einstein went off in another direction because of his inate suspicion that Quantum Mechanics has severe internal difficulties. Quantum Mechanics and Relativity have not yet been reconciled--but they are moving together slowly. Quantum Gravity seems to be key to the issue and may be resolved by String Theory.


Why was quantum mechanics invented?

Quantum Mechanics is one of the three branches of Modern Physics, being the other two, Classical Mechanics and Relativist Mechanics. Quantum Mechanics is needed to learn the intimate behavior of the smallest particles existent: subatomic particles. It deals with the interaction amongst, the forms of energy they receive and deliver, and the way they emit energy, a way done in packets, or quanta, also called photons. Quantum Mechanics is one of the base knowledges for the design of modern electronics.


What is the correct interpretation of Quantum Mechanics?

If anyone knew, then they would be a very famous person. The fact is that there is no known "correct" interpretation of quantum mechanics. Every interpretation has its critics and proponents, and every interpretation has its flaws. The previous answer says there is no known correct interpretation. I would go further, and say that no interpretation is any more valid than any other; all the interpretations are correct. They all give the same predictions, and therefore no experiment can possibly tell us which is "correct".


What is K space in quantum mechanics?

K space refers to a space where things are in terms of momentum and frequency instead of position and time and the way you convert between real space and k-space (or Fourier space) is a mathematical transformation called the Fourier transform (and Inverse Fourier transform). This K-space also exists in classical physics. In quantum mechanics the space is made up of discrete values of K, whereas in classical physics K can take on a continuum of values.


Why can't an atom's electrons ever be located between orbits?

We have learned from the subject of quantum mechanics that energy exists in discrete packages called quanta. You cannot have a half a quantum of energy, the universe is not constucted that way. The farther an electron is from the nucleus, the more potential energy it has (in the same way that an elevated object has gravitational potential energy) and that energy comes in specific quanta. Therefore, electrons can only have specific orbital distances. Any other distance would require a fraction of a quantum of energy, which is not allowed.

What are some colleges that offer courses in quantum mechanics?

There are several colleges in the United States which offer courses in quantum mechanics. The best way to find out which ones are to speak with a guidance counselor at a university.


Does every object have frequency?

yes, in a sense quantum mechanics allows the computation of a frequency for all masses (similar to the way relativity allows the computation of an energy for all masses).

Is it possible to have an energy level in the forbidden gap?

Yes. In quantum mechanics, "forbidden" often means "unlikely" and not actually "no way, no how."

How can the many worlds theory exist?

The Many Worlds Theory is a hypothesis in quantum mechanics that suggests there are multiple parallel universes that exist simultaneously. According to this theory, every possible outcome of a quantum event is realized in a separate universe. While this theory is not proven, it is a way to interpret certain aspects of quantum mechanics and is a topic of ongoing research and debate among physicists.


What is the main difference between particle physics and quantum physics?

There is none. To study particle physics you use the whole machinery of quantum physics, but written down in a different way. That means particle physicists use the formalism of quantum field theory, which is a more powerful way of doing quantum mechanics, it's just more useful in this context.


How Classical mechanics differ from quantum Mechanics?

The main difference among both is that Classical Mechanics are all rigorously observed under the Laws of Motion of Newton, also known as the Three Laws of Mechanics; whereas the Quantum Mechanics do not observe these Laws in a fullfilling manner. For instance, the Three Laws of Motion stipulate that an object that switches behavior from rest to motion undergoes a transitional stage known as acceleration; it has been observed that when a quantum or photon is emmited by an electron, it doesn't undergo said transitional stage, but it is rather thrusted all the way into light speed. The Classical Mechanics work for objects that are primarily made of matter, while the Quantum Mechanics work for objects that can hardly be called objects, for they are primarily made of energy, or carry few or no matter at all.


Is there any known way to change mass of a atom using quantum mechanics?

Changing mass into energy is via the famous equation E=mc2

What does it mean in quantum mechanics to say something is objectively real?

In quantum mechanics, it is often necessary to separate how things appear and how things are/could be. For example, when I stand on the floor, it appears to be solid without any breaks, but on a quantum scale, it is mostly empty space. In this example, my subjective opinion of the floor differs from the objective quantum reality of the floor. What we call "reality" behaves in different ways depending on the perspective. The objectively real or objective reality is a term to describe the way things are, not how they seem.
