Einsteins Incompleteness Argument
Another site describing the EPR paradox.
http://roxanne.roxanne.org/epr/einstein1.html

Extractions: One of the first physicsts to be publically troubled by the philosophical interpretations of quantum mechanics was Albert Einstein. In 1935, he co-authored a paper which was intended to show that Quantum Mechanics could not be a complete theory of nature. The arguments in the EPR paper are very similar to ones which Einstein himself made in correspondences to friends, but are not exactly the same. The first thing to notice is that Einstein was not trying to disprove Quantum Mechanics in any way. In fact, he was well aware of its power to predict the outcomes of various experiments. What he was trying to show was that Quantum Mechanics could not be a complete theory of nature and that some other theory would have to be invoked in order to fully describe nature. The argument begins by assuming that there are two systems, A and B (which might be two free particles) , whose wavefunctions are known. Then, if A and B interact for a short period of time, one can determine the wavefunction which results after this interaction via the Schroedinger equation or some other Quantum Mechanical equation of state. Now, let us assume that A and B move far apart, so far apart that they can no longer interact in any fashion. In other words

Zeno's Race Course, Part 1
Thoughtful lecture notes for discussing this paradox, presented by S. Marc Cohen.
http://faculty.washington.edu/smcohen/320/zeno1.htm

Extractions: The Paradox Zeno argues that it is impossible for a runner to traverse a race course. His reason is that Physics Why is this a problem? Because the same argument can be made about half of the race course: it can be divided in half in the same way that the entire race course can be divided in half. And so can the half of the half of the half, and so on, ad infinitum So a crucial assumption that Zeno makes is that of infinite divisibility : the distance from the starting point ( S ) to the goal ( G ) can be divided into an infinite number of parts. How did Zeno mean to divide the race course? That is, which half of the race course Zeno mean to be dividing in half? Was he saying (a) that before you reach G , you must reach the point halfway from the halfway point to G ? This is the progressive version of the argument: the subdivisions are made on the right-hand side, the goal side, of the race-course. Or was he saying (b) that before you reach the halfway point, you must reach the point halfway from S to the halfway point? This is the

A conference to be held at the University of Connecticut, USA, on 11th13th October 2002.
http://vm.uconn.edu/~wwwphil/conf02.html

Extractions: University of Connecticut Research Foundation The general topic is paradox . Papers will focus on semantic-logical paradoxes, vagueness and soritical paradoxes, or combinations of the two. Some topics to be covered include contextual approaches to vagueness, contextual approaches to semantic-logical paradox, paraconsistent approaches to paradox, absolutely unrestricted quantification, and the prospects of a unified approach to both semantic-logical and soritical paradox.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox -- From Eric Weisstein's World Of Physics
from Eric Weisstein's Treasure Trove of Physics
http://www.treasure-troves.com/physics/Einstein-Podolsky-RosenParadox.html

Extractions: A paradox first enunciated by Einstein et al. (1935), who proposed a thought experiment that appeared to demonstrate quantum mechanics to be an incomplete theory. The usual view of quantum mechanics says that a wave function determines the probabilities of an actual experimental result and that it is the most complete possible specification of the quantum state. Einstein et al. believed the predictions of quantum mechanics to be correct, but only as the result of statistical distributions of other unknown but real properties of the particles. Bohm (1951) presented a paper in which he described a modified form of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen thought experiment which he believed to be conceptually equivalent to that suggested by Einstein et al. (1935), but which was easier to treat mathematically. Bohm suggested using two atoms with a known total spin of zero, separated in a way that the spin of each atom points in a direction exactly opposite to that of the other. In this situation, the angular momentum of one particle can be measured indirectly by measuring the corresponding vector of the other particle. Bell (1964) subsequently formulated Bell's inequalities , which seemed to be a physically reasonable condition of locality which imposed restrictions on the maximum correlations of the measurements of a pair of spin 1/2 particles formed somehow in the singlet state and moving freely in opposite directions. This inequality can be tested in a laboratory experiment because the statistical predictions of quantum mechanics are incompatible with any local

Parrondo Paradox
Attempt to spread a novel Cut The Knot! meme via the Web site of the MathematicalAssociation of America, Parrondo paradox. Parrondo paradox. June 2001.
http://www.cut-the-knot.com/ctk/Parrondo.shtml

Extractions: Doron Zeilberger on receiving the 1998 Leroy P. Steele Prize The Parrondo Paradox is a double shocker. Counter to common intuition, it is possible to mix two losing games into a winning combination. This is a good news. But do not rub your hands just yet. The theory does not apply to casino games. Learning about it all must be its own reward. On the positive side but shaky ground, Sandra Blakeslee reported last year in NY Times that Dr. Sergei Maslov from Brookhaven National Laboratory had shown that if an investor simultaneously shared capital between two losing stock portfolios, capital would increase rather than decrease. (On the downside, as of the time of writing, it was too early to apply his model to the real stock market because of its complexity.) Since the Paradox has been reported a couple of years ago, many real world and abstract examples has been thought up that make it more palatable. Indeed, monetary rewards apart, a combination of negative trends may lead to a positive outcome. Brooke Buckley, an undergraduate student from Eastern Kentucky University
Fermi's Paradox
A couple of possible resolutions to the question of galactic colonization.
http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/astro/seti/dt/fermi.html

Extractions: Fermi's Paradox If technology continues to improve, we can easily conceive of colonizing the entire galaxy in less then 100 million years. For example, one can conceive of many man made probes sent to a host of other stars. Some will find environments suitable for human life and could clone humans (and other animals and plants) from onboard DNA samples. Another possibility is that artificial intelligence will develop an exploratory desire and produce machines that can replicate themselves. These machines could travel to neighbouring stars. Those that find solar systems with enough raw materials could go about manufacturing replicas of themselves (or improvements thereof). These daughter probes could then be sent to further multitudes of stars and in a short time the entire galaxy would be completely colonized by these so called Von Neumann probes. Most of the stars in the galaxy are more than a billion years older than the Sun. If life and civilizations are common throughout the galaxy then they should have colonized the galaxy long ago. Where are they? This is known as Fermi's paradox. Fermi's paradox relies on the assumption that civilizations (as we know them) have a desire to colonize (or at least explore) the Galaxy. Team 1 resolves Fermi's paradox by arguing that we don't see evidence for aliens because other technological civilizations have no desire to colonize or explore the Galaxy (do we have such a desire?) or that the physical limitations behind space travel have made colonization impossible.
