Schematic sketch of the process that produces the ‘squeezed’ states. An ultrashort pump field is sent into a nonlinear crystal,
‘squeezing’ the vacuum. Different areas of the field are redistributed (accelerated or decelerated) within the crystal (see grey
lines in the horizontal plane). Furthermore, the strength of field E0 (amplitude of vacuum fluctuations) is increased or decreased
(z axis). Credit: Kizmann et al.

Illegal aliens sucking off the teat of zero point energy is why the universe is is expanding. In this case, it’s causing universal cooling. Will a phase shift soon follow?
Thanks.
That makes more sense to me than those two graphics I posted. :)
Re: “Some of the greatest unanswered questions about the nature of the universe are related to light, the vacuum... and their relationship with time.”
One very interesting connection I’m somewhat familiar with is the intricate link between space, time, matter and energy via Einstein’s equations. That is, time dilation, length contraction, mass increase, and E=mc^2.
Not only does a moving clock tick out time more slowly, and a moving ruler shrink in length, a moving object likewise experiences a mass increase (all of the above is as viewed from our outside stationary point of reference).
Then there is the more popular relationship between matter and energy via E=mc^2. I find it incredible that these seemingly very different aspects of reality are so intertwined.
Thanks for posting this. It actually is very interesting and a novel way to examine squeezed states
No there is no easily understood explanation for the average science lover. 45 yrs in lasers and electro optics helps
All I know is I had a flood light burst, and the pump field went out, and I had to buy a wet/dry/light vacuum to clean up the mess. Thank God for ABCE=MC2 Warehouse.
There is no such thing as a total vacuum as consciousness exists everywhere.
Time is not just a function of the speed of light. Time is a function of the frequency of consciousness divided by the speed of light. As consciousness increases in frequency time decreases.
Perception of reality is a function of the frequency of consciousness observing it.
This is the missing component of Einstein’s theory of relativity as he belonged to the “Flat Consciousness Society.”
Consciousness can’t reach these high frequencies unless it combines in it’s dual aspects to form a standing wave. This is where Love is important as it is the glue that holds consciousness together so it can reach higher frequencies without vibrating like a car tire out of balance at high speeds.
Religion(s) are merely theories and philosophies of the anatomy & physiology of human consciousness and how it interacts with its environment. They have much truth in them.
Light is an intrinsic characteristic of higher levels of consciousness. When I go deep in meditation, no matter the level or frequency of consciousness I am at, I always perceive the levels above me as Light.
I’ve observed that Niels Bohr’s discovery of the orbitals of electrons and how electrons yield photons when moving to a lower level is also true of consciousness. The higher I go, the brighter the Light I perceive.
Are "squeezed states" in any way related to the concentration of light rays required in forming a laser beam?
I’ve come to the opinion that there is no total vacuum in space. My reasoning is that in any location in space you can see the light from stars which is accompanied by other radiation from those sources. Since the radiation is present it isn’t a total vacuum.
Not really. Laser beams are formed by amplifying a particularly frequency of the electromagnetic spectrum. In most visible lasers that requires optics that allow the amplification
Thanks ETL.
Yes, not only that but so-called "empty space" is seething with an inherent energy within it, with 'virtual particles' continuously popping into and out of existence. I believe this 'hidden' energy is referred to as 'quantum flux'.

Interesting in relation to this article.
Because String Theory is way out there in terms of speculation. Instinct tells me it doesn't come close to accurately explaining or describing the fundamental nature of reality, if such a single explanation of reality even exists. ie, there is a near-infinite number of perspectives in which to view or experience the universe. In other words, from the perspective of something residing in the realm of quantum mechanics, its experience is completely different than something in the macroscopic/everyday world. How can we possibly select one of these countless possibilities and decide that it is the correct and only perspective in which to describe the universe.
I thought much of the quantum infinities had been excluded by pegging values to those ‘twenty odd’ fundamental numbers. Weight of a proton, etc. meaning, the possible universes were few.
but I’m certainly no expert. I find the non Euclidean geometry and higher dimensional studies fascinating.
Yes, from my vague understanding, that was the basis for coming up with string theory in the first place. To put a lower limit on the size of quantum entities. Otherwise, current mathematics treat individual entities as though they had zero volume, as dimensionless ‘point’ particles.

Looking forward to watching. I must not have caught them all. Thanks!!
