  1. Return of the Boltzmann Brains: Why a Bizarre Hypothesis Suggests the Past May Be Harder to Prove Than We Think

    The idea that memories might not correspond to real events but could actually be illusions created by chance…

  6. #OnThisDay Birth Anniversary of Austrian #Physicist Ludwig Boltzmann (1844). In 1877 he provided the current definition of entropy. Max Planck named the constant kB the #Boltzmann #Constant.

  8. J'ai fait une petite simulations rigolote pour vérifier numériquement un vieux truc que j'ai trouvé dans un article de Boltzmann. Si on met une particule dans un plan avec deux ressorts qui ont des constantes de forces k1 et k2, la trajectoire est périodique si k1/k2 est un nombre rationnel: youtu.be/keGGbb2uiB8

    Évidemment si c'est pas un nombre rationnel (genre pi), c'est pas périodique: youtu.be/Tty0jFWKkv8

    Voilà, c'est tout pour moi.

  9. Good grief. Boltzmann's brain in the comics.
    questionablecontent.net/view.p I liked this answer "If you ask me, it doesn't matter if we're just a bunch of bits and bytes as long as we're experiencing our lives!" similar was said in the movie "Free Guy"
    I liked Susskind's answer to the question of whether we lived in a computer....

  11. "The authors introduce the two main theoretical approaches in SM, Boltzmannian SM and Gibbsian SM, and discuss how they conceptualise equilibrium and explain the approach to it. In doing so, the authors examine how probabilities are introduced into the theories, how they deal with irreversibility, how they understand the relation between the micro and the macro level, and how the two approaches relate to each other."

  14. Today, 179 years ago Ludwig #Boltzmann was born. Celebrating his birthday with the participants of the workshop 'Between Regularity and Defects: Variational and Geometrical Methods in #materialsscience '. 📕

  16. 🧭🌍🧪 Did you know that Ludwig Boltzmann is buried at the Vienna Central Cemetery and that on his tombstone is written the definition of entropy, or Boltzmann's equation: S = k log W?

  17. Anyone read A. I. Miller's Imagery in Scientific Thought Creating 20th-Century #Physics?

    Seems interesting... I'm already looking at #Einstein, and I may need to look at #Poincaré and #Boltzmann anyway. Miller seems to present a different understanding of #Piaget's genetic epistemology than I had

  18. This #painting is based on the #Boltzmann Brains thought experiment: What if you were nothing more than a disembodied #brain--complete with a lifetime of memories--that spontaneously popped into existence in a most unlikely coalescing of random particles? 🙃

    THOUGHT EXPERIMENT, Oil on panel, from my #AlternateReality (#AltRealism) series.

    (New instance, so I'm posting this one again since posts don't transfer over.)

  19. Imagine, if you will, that you're a disembodied #brain. A brain that spontaneously popped into existence in a most unlikely coalescing of random particles, a brain busily conjuring up a #reality consisting of you imagining yourself as a disembodied brain. 🙃

    Avec Jérôme #Perez et Bernard #Derrida.
    "Que décrit la grande équation de Boltzmann dans son article de 1872 ? En quoi est-elle puissante, à l’aube de l’ère industrielle et de l’essor des machines thermiques ? Que cherchait à expliquer à l’origine son auteur, Ludwig Boltzmann, qui a été un des piliers de la #thermodynamique ?"
