How do I correctly interpret $\rho = \psi_1^* \psi_2$? One clarification needed though, what do you mean by: " transition amplitudes can be written as an integral of a local quantity". |

Lattice Yang-Mills This is very interesting, mainly because I learnt of the $D>4$ when my stat mech prof taught us the Ginzburg criterion, and did a procedure of when fluctuations can be neglected in mean field theories. Yet I am not familiar with the context of this Q/A (you start with action of the Lattice Yang Mills)... can you just drop a line on what connects? THanks. |

How many bits are needed to simulate the universe? @lagerbaer basic question: if you wish to encode an m parameter function over n points, why would it be $n^m$? |

What is wrong with the De Broglie–Bohm theory a.k.a “Causal Interpretation” of quantum theory? @dmckee I've flaggd your comment as I consider philosopher a not-very appraising term, short of an insult to a physics student, and plainly wrong in the context. Moreover, last question was closed after I had flagged it. After reading the answers, I realized that the topic was not as simplistic as I thought. I also suspect that I was the only one who asked for moderator attention on it. Asking for philosophical discussion is the last thing I would do. |

Basic question about force and acceleration Your velocity in reference to the accelerating frames doesn't change in either case |

Phonons in non-crystalline media @Anna v im not sure how disordered media is modeled, but to get a correct fit with specific heat at low temperatures, you would need a contiuous spectrum of frequencies bounded above by a threshold frequency. Ref: Debye model |

Which is better intro physics for math major student ? Sears Physics and Berkeley Physics Series Sears/Zeemansky and Resnick Halliday are better than Feynman lectures for an absolute beginner. Feynman lectures are best appreciated once you've already mastered the material from other sources, done problems etc. |

What is wrong with the De Broglie–Bohm theory a.k.a “Causal Interpretation” of quantum theory? @dmckee Clarification: as OP of earlier question, I had asked a plain question to correct my understanding from a reading. It did not ask for a philosophical discussion, and what happened later was really beyond me. |
