SciFi Stasis Field and the Quantum Zeno Effect
The Quantum Zeno Effect concerns the use of repeated measurement of a particle to prevent the time evolution of the wave function, and hence "freeze" it in the observed state. …

Quantum Zeno Effect and Many Worlds Interpretation (Plus Quantum Eraser)
What's the Many-Worlds interpretation of the Quantum Zeno effect and does its interpretation somehow relate to the Many-Worlds interpretation of the quantum eraser experiment? If so, how? …

Does Zeno's Paradox hold the simplest key to explain the widely-held continuous spacetime be... [closed]
The essence of Zeno paradox's resolution lies in time and space are continuous, thus you can have possible velocity notion via its position's change along with "measuring" its corresponding time interval … , and Zeno tacitly avoided the required velocity notion in any motion to arrive at his famous paradox. …

Radian Zeno-version paradox: Can a particle moving in the circular path reach the angular po...
The argument, as evident, is in the zeno version. But, I am not able to come out of this cage. What is going wrong in this argument? Can the particle never reach non-terminating decimal form value? …

Mechanics predict an infinite number of bounces, does this make sense?
This will predict that the ball will be at rest at time=2, after enduring an infinite number of bounces (a variation of the zeno paradox). … But contrary to zeno paradox, here the bounces can in principle be physically measured. …

Zeno’s Paradox of the Arrow
Premises And the Conclusion of the Paradox: (1) When the arrow is in a place just its own size, it’s at rest. (2) At every moment of its flight, the arrow is in a place just its own size. (3) There …

Using Zeno's Paradox to prove that spacetime is discrete
After recently watching a couple of videos on supertasks and Achilles-turtle paradox, I'm curious - could Zeno's paradox be considered a "proof" that physically there has to be a smallest unit of leng …

Physics of (a version of) Zeno's paradox [closed]
I'm sure that this had been asked before but I don't seem to find the solution.
So imagine a stationary ball on a glass table. Nothing special here.
Now imagine the same ball dropped from a signifi …

Besides transmutation, is there any way to "speed up" the decay rate of radioactive material?
Among them, there were a few on the quantum anti-zeno effect, which I already knew about, as well as a couple on something called "field enhanced beta decay" and various methods utilizing lasers. …

On black hole ground states
It could be that the black hole particle at near zero temperatures exhibits a behaviour like a zeno effect. … Regardless, there are similarities since the zeno effect is about reducing the system to the ground state and so I am not entirely incorrect to draw upon these possible connections to the physics? …
