In This Space
Do we occupy only one space?
Could Schrodinger be right?
Can we be both dead and alive at once?
Can we be in more than one place at the same time?
Is our fate determined by random subatomic events?
Are we here or there or both?
Are there doppelgangers of us both good and bad?
Creating chaos or living for good at the same moment?
Is there one or more of me?
If there is I hope he or they have better luck than I do.
Heisenberg was “uncertain” and so am I.

“The first gulp from the glass of natural sciences will turn you into an atheist, but at the bottom of the glass God is waiting for you.” — Werner Heisenberg
heisenberg did not
express uncertainty when
he posited God
at first gulp, science banished thought
of childhood gods of should and ought
but progress through the draught is fraught
as glass bottom comes into view
you expected mere residue
instead, ’tis where God waits for you

The natives are restless
They’re storming the gates
The jury is back:
All wretched ingrates!
The votes have been cast,
The dice have been thrown.
The calculus broken,
They’re starting to moan.
Incredulous, wakening,
They realize they’re slaves
Not to their own brilliance
But each other’s faves.
The rising and falling:
They share the same lot.
All in this together,
Declaring what’s hot.
That Heisenberg dude,
Man, he’s such a jerk
The more he looks closely
The less things just work.
It should be organic
Cream floats to the top
But so does Jan’s poo
When the toilet is stopped.
Encourage each other;
I don’t mind critique.
Thank God we’re all different,
Our perspectives unique.
I love to tell stories,
And talk about God,
Juxtapose, be ironic,
And be generally odd.
I find I’m quite dense
On the things that you write;
No worries, my C-PAP
Keeps me up at night.
But I’d best tie this off
As fast as I can
Or it’s tl;dr
From a cranky old man!

Science does much, gets stuck flat
Who made that, and that, and that?
If most of what IS, is dark matter
Who made it? Gravity is our detector
But we don't know much of this Matter

Think of Post- Newton science, no laws
Hold in the world smaller than protons!
Quantum particles can become waves
When certainty leaves, everything behaves
how FineTuner wanted. Best Law, love, His!
Jesus said: Nothing binds us if He forgives

Newton saw certainty and laws; then we learned about no certainties in the world of the tiniest particles. Even electrons may be seen
or may be located where they might be expected or not. Gravity is so special God used for finetuning the universe of laws and no laws. Just as His law of Love will overturn laws of any court about my guilt and yours. Get finetuned to Jesus, and love certainty when all around is uncertain. Shalom shalom

“Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here, within this lucid dream, we call life
Stuporous is light of our awareness
We wish to be joy rife but thrive on strife
History shows no shift in consciousness
Both evil and good co-exist on earth
Our head and heart too, feel separateness
Beginning with ourself, to reclaim mirth
We keep thought flow slow, entering silence
Our heart expands, beyond feeble form’s girth
Distilled calm reveals essence of presence
Being but our soul, in heart all aglow
We reclaim thus our self’s luminescence
Our free will chooses to meld with love’s flow
Love employs no force, so it’s up to us
There remain no seeds of desire to sow
Poised in the void, earth life does not nonplus
We stand erect, aligned with love and light
Going where God takes us, without a fuss
Time’s now to awaken spherical sight
As bliss cascades within, through day and night

y Schrödinger equation, mean-field approaches are commonly developed.
A detailed derivation can be found in Dalfovo’s article. The generalization of the
original Bogoliubov description to the physical situation in real experiments is given
by describing the field operators in the Heisenberg:
(2)
Where y (x,t) is a complex function defined as the expectation value of the field
operator and its modulus represents the condensate density.
If we ignored the depletion of the condensate, the time evolution of the condensate
wave function at temperature T=0 is obtained by taking the ansatz for the field
operator and using the Heisenberg equation. Then we can get the Gross-Pitaevskii
equation for the mean field (see some condensed matter physics text books such as by
Chaikin),
(3)
The description of the propagation of noninteracting matter waves in periodic
potentials is straightforward once one has found the eigenstates and corresponding
eigenenergies of the system. If we consider a one dimensional sinusoidal periodic
potential of the form,

As the times do change, gravity's no well,
Based on past returns divine tomorrow,
So many obsess 'bout how others fell,
'Scape velocity's the air to arrow.
Energy equals mass times lightspeed squared?
It's all just theory, so who the who knows?
Recall how the eyes of Heisenberg fared,
Everything changes when we put on shows.
Explore all about, Cosmos is our bout,
There's always home to visit, just in case.
Discov'ry needs determinations shout,
They flow in, they flow out, those currents of space.
I'll search this pebble, find my own verse,
I'll know it well, this entire universe.

A glass stands upon a table,
Watched by arbiters of existential
State.
They observe the glass, to give opinion
As to its contents.
The Pessimist speaks: “There is wine
In the glass, and it is half empty”.
The Optimist, with shake of head
And wave of hand, denies this:
“The glass is half full”.
There is a pause as all gathered
Ponder the wisdom of relativistic
Observation.
The Pragmatist steps forward:
“Half full or half empty, it is refillable!”
Silence shrouds the watchers, deep in thought;
The Opportunist elbows past and picks up
The glass, draining the wine within.
“Hmmm – nice” he opines,
“Is there any more?”.
Thus Heisenberg speaks through wine
Stained lips;
Having severed the Gordian knot of
Fullness or emptiness,
With pleasure and relish.

There once was a particle in space
Who moved at a leisurely pace.
He measured his speed
but Heisenberg didn't heed
And lost track of his place.
Explainer:
If you are not a scientist or science enthusiast, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is one of those fundamental properties of nature which means that you can measure position or momentum not both! Fortunately, this effect only becomes prominent with very small objects.
