متن کاملSurely You Must All be Joking: An Outsider’s Critique of the Current State of Quantum Physics
A critique of the state of current quantum theory in physics is presented, based on a perspective outside the normal physics training. From this perspective, the acceptance of quantum nonlocality seems unwarranted, and the fundamental assumptions that give rise to it in the first place seem questionable, based on the current status of the quantum theory of light. The relevant data can instead b...

چکیده: فرض کنید که تابعی از اپسیلون یک مجموع نامتناهی از احتمالات موزون مربوط به مجموع های جزئی براساس یک دنباله از متغیرهای تصادفی مستقل و همتوزیع باشد، و همچنین فرض کنید توابعی مانند g و h وجود دارند که هرگاه امید ریاضی توان دوم x متناهی و امیدریاضی x صفر باشد، در این صورت می توان حد حاصلضرب این توابع را بصورت تابعی از امید ریاضی توان دوم x نوشت. حالت عکس نیز برقرار است. همچنین ما با استفاده...

متن کاملTeaching statistics to medical undergraduates using interactive and participatory sessions
Introduction: In India, medical undergraduates think that statistics is difficultto understand. Often, it is taught just before final assessment examinationusing didactic lectures, with little use of medical examples and less focus onapplication. Hence, we prepared interactive, participatory sessions for teachingbiostatistics to medical undergraduate.Methods: The sessions were delivered by a fa...
