چکیده

The recent analysis by de la Torre, Daleo and Garcı́a-Mata of the reply of Bohr to the famous clock-in-the-box challenge of Einstein is criticized. Recently, de la Torre, Daleo and Garcı́a-Mata (TDG) [1] have subjected to a ‘careful and irreverent’ analysis the arguments of Einstein and Bohr in their dialogue concerning the famous clock-in-the-box gedanken experiment devised by Einstein in an attempt to disprove the uncertainty relation for energy and time [2], and reached the conclusion that ‘Einstein’s argument is flawed while Bohr’s reply is wrong.’ In this comment, we would like to point out that it is the TDG analysis of the balancing procedure assumed in Bohr’s reply that is flawed, and to uphold Bohr’s simple inequality characterizing this balancing as correct—if not ‘obviously’, then on a little reflection. The inequality in question,

Einstein structures on four-dimensional nutral Lie groups

When Einstein was thinking about the theory of general relativity based on the elimination of especial relativity constraints (especially the geometric relationship of space and time), he understood the first limitation of especial relativity is ignoring changes over time. Because in especial relativity, only the curvature of the space was considered. Therefore, tensor calculations should be to...

Effects of Circadian Rhythm on Physical and physiological Performance of Military forces- Narrative Review

The 2017 Nobel Prize for medicine was awarded the biological clock Scientist, which shows the importance of this phenomenon in the life of living organisms.

On the Relation between the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Para- dox and the Problem of Nonlocality in Quantum Mechanics

The EPR problem is studied both from an instrumentalistic and from a realistic point of view. Bohr’s reply to the EPR paper is analyzed and demonstrated to be not completely representative of Bohr’s general views on the possibility of defining properties of a microscopic object. A more faithful Bohrian answer would not have led Einstein to the conclusion that Bohr’s completeness claim of quantu...
