Wave Particle Duality, the Observer and Retrocausality

We approach wave particle duality, the role of the observer and implications on Retrocausality, by starting with the results of a well verified quantum experiment.

Narasimhan, A., Kafatos, M.C.

Sheaf theoretic formulation for consciousness, qualia and relationship... 

Questions about the nature of reality, whether Consciousness is the fundamental reality in the universe, ...

Kafatos, M.C., Kato, G. C. (2017)

Exploring Consciousness through the Qualitative Content of Equations, Cosmos and History

Here we focus on the qualitative content of what the relationships expressed in equations imply.

Narasimhan, A., Kafatos, M.C.

Biofield Science

We approach wave particle duality, the role of the observer and implications on Retrocausality, by starting with the results of a well verified quantum experiment.

Kafatos, M.C., Chevalier, G., Chopra, D., Hubacher, J.J., Kak, S., Theise, N.D. (2015)

Fundamental Awareness: A framework for integrating science, philosophy and metaphysics

We approach wave particle duality, the role of the observer and implications on Retrocausality, by starting with ... 

Theise, N.D., Kafatos, M.C.

Saving the Physics II: Who Needs to be Saved? It Depends on Your Metaphysics

 Here we explore how a new metaphysics where consciousness is fundamental might just be what modern societies need.
