Observer effect
This volume contains a revised, updated, and expanded edition of a small book the author published in 2013 with Adea Edizioni, in which he offers a down-to-earth perspective on the observer effect in quantum mechanics—a topic much discussed today, often in contexts that have little or nothing to do with physics. The text was subsequently republished in 2019 by AutoRicerca, with the addition of two further texts by the author: a revised and slightly expanded transcript of a video the author posted on YouTube on April 5, 2012, titled “Heisenberg’s Principle and Quantum Non-spatiality (Non-locality),” and a short article exploring the possibility of spontaneous self-teleportation of a human body, as permitted by quantum laws. The author wrote this article in response to a question posed by a science fiction writer, seeking to provide both a qualitative and quantitative answer, specifically by explicitly calculating the probability of such an event.
