This actually strikes me as a good example (analogy?) to illustrate quantum effects -- if you let it sit it mostly approaches a flat average level, but there's still occasional "random" splashes that can reach much higher than you'd expect. Makes me think of things like electron tunneling
Don't know if that makes sense to anyone else
- godelski 3y agoThis should make a lot of sense. Quantum is particles acting like waves. Then remember that absolute zero was originally formulated as the impossible state of no particles moving. But I'd also be careful taking this as a great analogy to quantum because really what you're just seeing is wave effects (which is really important to quantum) but not seeing some of the other effects. Especially the weird ones. At first I thought this was SPH (smooth particle hydrodynamics) but the site says it is PIC (particle in cell).[0] [0] https://yzhu.io/publication/mpmmls2018siggraph/ https://yzhu.io/publication/mpmmls2018siggraph/
