- dschuetz 8y agoAnd what do those "time quanta" represent? "Time of light traversing the radius of an electron", really? Isn't that just another measurement device based on light quanta and distance?
- backpropaganda 8y agoNo. That "time quanta" represents the smallest value Δ such that it doesn't make sense to take about events which happened between t and t+Δ. Δ may not be a constant though like Planck's constant.
- dschuetz 8y agoThe shortest distance between two events in space and time, when there are time quanta, then there must be space quanta as well.
- backpropaganda 8y agoWhat do you mean? We do already have space quanta: Planck Length.
- dschuetz 8y agoAh, well, I heard Planck Time also already exists. What's the point then re-inventing time quanta when they already are defined?
