The Quantum Mechanics of Time Travel
Loading...
Uploaded by QuantumIQC on Dec 16, 2010
Dr. Seth Lloyd, an MIT professor and self-described "quantum mechanic," describes the quantum mechanics behind time travel during a guest lecture at the Institute for Quantum Computing, University of Waterloo (www.iqc.ca). Recorded on Nov. 4, 2010, this is entire lecture entitled "Sending a Photon Backwards in Time."
Dr. Lloyd also sat down for a one-on-one interview at IQC, during which he discusses the weirdness (and beautiful simplicity) of quantum mechanics, and the incredible importance of quantum information research. Excerpts from this interview are below:

Surely if there is ANY interference in the space/time continuum WILL create a paradox ?, and Quantum Physics points out that atoms affect each other regardless of distance does that relate to time ?.
-
If we belive in theory of multiverse, and we assume that there is a chance that one of the universes allowes time travel, then our universe could be altered by a time traveller from that universe. If our universe could be altered then time travel in our universe is also possible.
Simple.

The time machine from "Napeoleon Dynamite" looks easier to use and understand. Plus, Uncle Rico said he bought it online. That's a plus.
