"... I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics."

- Richard Feynman

"Anyone who is not shocked by quantum mechanics hasn't understood it."

- Niels Bohr

"Here's to the Crazy Ones, the Misfits, the Rebels, the Troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them... Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the Crazy Ones, we see Genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do." - Apple TV commercial

"Genius does what it must, and Talent does what it can."

- Owen Meredith

Research Interest Ex-Officially : Hydrodynamical modelling of relativistic heavy ion collisions Quark-gluon plasma/QCD phase transition signals Unofficially : Quantum theory as a physical theory of Becoming, a crucial aspect of Nature often neglected by physicists. Philosophers like Bergson and Whitehead had good grasp of the overall problem of Becoming, but lacked the technical details needed to formulate a physical theory out of it. Wheeler (perhaps also Stapp and Haag) is probably the only physicist who came close to understanding the importance of Becoming through his thesis of observer-participancy. If properly formulated in physical terms, Becoming may well hold the key to understanding quantum theory and the structure of space-time... Any and all crackpot theories My Résumé
