Holonomic brain theory is a branch of neuroscience investigating the idea that consciousness is formed by quantum effects in or between brain cells. Holonomic refers to representations in a Hilbert phase space defined by both spectral and space-time coordinates. [1]
Karl H. Pribram (/ ˈ p r aɪ b r æ m /; German: [ˈpʁiːbram]; February 25, 1919 – January 19, 2015) was a neurosurgeon, neuroscientist and theoretical philosopher described by his peers as the “Einstein of Brain Science” [1] and the “Magellan of the Mind” for his groundbreaking research into the “functions of the brain’s limbic system, frontal lobes, temporal lobes, and their ...
David Joseph Bohm FRS [1] (/ b oʊ m /; 20 December 1917 – 27 October 1992) was an American scientist who has been described as one of the most significant theoretical physicists of the 20th century [2] and who contributed unorthodox ideas to quantum theory, neuropsychology and the philosophy of mind.
Bohm also used the term unfoldment to characterise processes in which the explicate order becomes relevant (or "relevated"). Bohm likens unfoldment also to the decoding of a television signal to produce a sensible image on a screen. The signal, screen, and television electronics in this analogy represent the implicate order, while the image ...
In a 2020 paper, Katherine Nelson and Robyn Fivush use "autobiographical consciousness" to label essentially the same faculty, and agree with Foulkes on the timing of this faculty's acquisition. Nelson and Fivush contend that "language is the tool by which humans create a new, uniquely human form of consciousness, namely, autobiographical ...
In the framework of the de Broglie–Bohm theory, the quantum potential is a term within the Schrödinger equation which acts to guide the movement of quantum particles. . The quantum potential approach introduced by Bohm [1] [2] provides a physically less fundamental exposition of the idea presented by Louis de Broglie: de Broglie had postulated in 1925 that the relativistic wave function ...
In Bohm's interpretation, the (non-local) quantum potential constitutes an implicate (hidden) order which organizes a particle, and which may itself be the result of yet a further implicate order: a superimplicate order which organizes a field. [32] Nowadays Bohm's theory is considered to be one of many interpretations of quantum mechanics.
David Bohm, 20th century theoretical physicist who lent his name to several concepts in physics: Aharonov–Bohm effect of electromagnetic potential on a particle; Bohm sheath criterion for a Debye sheath plasma layer; Bohm diffusion of plasma in a magnetic field; Bohm interpretation of the configuration of particles
