I am no physicist, but I am a writer and a fan of SF. The Bose-Einstein Condensate is surely one of the most fascinating 'artifacts' to be produced in recent years and may have significance in as wide-ranging fields of enquiry as consciousness to safe energy.
I want to write (or rather complete) a novel that explores these possibilities, but I want to stray as little as possible from current theoretical models, whilst indulging myself and the reader with some of the fantastical explorations true to the spirit of SF.
Can anyone help me? A sufficiently great contribution will entitle my collaborator to acknowledgement, if not the title of co-author.
I have started a Project [The Bose-Einstein Condensate (A Novel] and one Bench [Drafts]
This looks like a very interesting topic . IMHO As I understand..open to correction.. ( I am an engineer) the Bose-Einstein Condensate shows that at absolute zero temperature all atoms become one
super atom.. So possible scenarios for SciFi
1. By some method ( universal meditation?) if all human thoughts (entropy) are brought to zero throughout the world then we all coalesce into one superconscious being....
perhaps we would know completely the meaning of why we are here (on earth) and where we go from here.. actually we are trapped in a time capsule( a lifetime)
with limited knowledge of the outside world.. Add to this the idea ..that only
Information is conserved not even energy.. and the time horizon is malleable around
a blackhole.. we can conjecture all sorts of scenarios where past ,present and future merge..perhaps time stands still?
2. Questions arise eg if this one superconscious is space limited?
3. will there be other galaxies where this has already been achieved?
4. will there be extra dimensions that we can move into?
5. can we become creators of universes ?
6. can we extend the ideas to emotions such as love fear anger etc..
7. from fiction point of view plots where observation changes what has
happened would lead to interesting legal interpretations of events.
..8. One can make a modern version of Sherlock Holmes .. I think..
and have a series of stories..
These were some thoughts that crossed my mind ..hope it helps
A very interesting article
