Arguments and Model for Quantum Consciousness, Modification of Quantum Collapse, and Panpsychism
As first, a mechanism how quantum coherence in the brain can last long enough is shown. This mechanism is based on very light elementary particles. Then the arguments follow as why consciousness should be a quantum phenomenon and how such an introduction of quantum consciousness modifies the formalism of quantum mechanics. This can also be tested by an experiment. Without use of quantum mechani...
متن کاملA Critical Note on the Role of the Quantum Mechanical "collapse" in Quantum Modeling of Consciousness
We give a brief account on the existing strategies in quantum-mechanical approaching the problem of consciousness. To a list of distinguished approaches we add the next plausible notion: when treated quantummechanically, consciousness should be modeled as an open quantum system. This notion is tightly connected to the von Neumann's "collapse" ("wave packet reduction"). Here we strongly emphasiz...
متن کاملDoes consciousness really collapse the wave function? A possible objective biophysical resolution of the measurement problem.
An analysis has been performed of the theories and postulates advanced by von Neumann, London and Bauer, and Wigner, concerning the role that consciousness might play in the collapse of the wave function, which has become known as the measurement problem. This reveals that an error may have been made by them in the area of biology and its interface with quantum mechanics when they called for th...
متن کاملThe death of Schrödinger’s cat and of consciousness- based quantum wave-function collapse
The implications arising from the “Schrödinger’s cat” thought experiment have led some authors to argue that observation of a measurement by a conscious observer is required to collapse quantum wave-functions. Here we combine Schrödinger’s experimental paradigm with a system for splitting the information about the quantum state between two observers, thereby allowing distinct outcomes to be rec...
متن کاملOrchestrated Objective Reduction of Quantum Coherence in Brain Microtubules: The "Orch OR" Model for Consciousness
Features of consciousness difficult to understand in terms of conventional neuroscience have evoked application of quantum theory, which describes the fundamental behavior of matter and energy. In this paper we propose that aspects of quantum theory (e.g. quantum coherence) and of a newly proposed physical phenomenon of quantum wave function "self-collapse"(objective reduction: OR -Penrose, 199...
