The essence of our hypothesis is quantum properties of conscious processes as well as the possibility to measure changes in conscious attention by using quantum double-slit experiment. We supposed that the act of observing in state of focused attention cause a wave function collapse in double-slit diffraction. In order to test the hypothesis, 26 participants took part in the study divided into physical and physiological parts of the experiment. The purpose of the physical system was to reproduce the brain quantum process via hypothesized quantum entanglement. The physical part consisted of a red laser source, neutral density filter, double-slit diaphragm, and linear couple charged camera, while the physiological part of the experiment was significant for the physiological quantifying state of attention. Physiological data were collected by using 29 channel electrophysiological unit with 21 channel electroencephalograph. The study had control and experimental group according to dependent variables measured in the physical part of the experiment. The data in the experimental group were collected over ten studies (sessions). Results obtained in hypothesis testing showed significant increases in corpuscular properties of the electromagnetic wave as well as significant quantum entanglement between the brain and external double-slit quantum system. Our results also offer insight into the connection between the chaotic dynamic of the electroencephalographic signals and uncertainty in the physical system due to focused attention effect. We also hypothesized that the state of concentrated attention was highest during the first several seconds. The last hypothesis considered possible backward time referral effect of cognitive evoked potential p300.
我们的假设的本质是意识过程的量子特性,以及通过使用量子双缝实验来测量意识注意力变化的可能性。我们假设,在专注状态下观察的行为会导致双缝衍射中的波函数坍缩。为了验证假设,26 名参与者分为实验的物理和生理两部分参与了研究。物理系统的目的是通过假设的量子纠缠来再现大脑量子过程。物理部分包括红色激光源、中性密度滤光片、双缝光阑和线性耦合电荷相机,而实验的生理部分对于注意力的生理量化状态很重要。生理数据是通过使用具有 21 通道脑电图的 29 通道电生理单元收集的。根据实验物理部分测量的因变量,研究分为对照组和实验组。实验组的数据在十几次研究(会议)中收集。假设检验的结果表明,电磁波的粒子特性显著增加,大脑和外部双缝量子系统之间的量子纠缠也显著增加。我们的结果还深入了解了由于专注注意力的影响,脑电图信号的混沌动态与物理系统不确定性之间的联系。我们还假设,集中注意力的状态在最初几秒钟内最高。最后一个假设考虑了认知诱发的 p300 电位的可能回溯时间引用效应。
