Computer simulation using particles J.W Eastwood, R.W Hockney
Publisher: IOP

Terrell thinks so and that Terrell notes, "The experiment shows something really rather extraordinary, that matter, even though it behaves when you are looking at it, measuring it, as individual particles, when you are not looking at it, matter is diffuse. Plato's Allegory of the Cave, Descartes' evil demon, Putnam's brain in a vat -- these are all variants of justifications for solipsism, a philosophical idea that says it's impossible to know with any certainty whether the world as we experience it is "real" or a simulation projected by some external entity. They found that a superimposed lattice framework by nature imposes a fundamental upper limit on the energy particles can have, a contradiction with quantum chromodynamics10. UW scientists from the Institute of Nuclear Theory (INT) are using computers to simulate and examine neutron stars, a stellar remnant that results from the gravitational collapse of a normal star during supernovae activities. The researchers believe that their device represents a new route to a quantum computer – a powerful type of computer that uses quantum bits (qubits) rather than the conventional bits used in today's computers. Neutron stars are almost entirely composed of neutrons and protons, the same subatomic particles in the center of atoms found here on earth, and are held together by a massive gravitational force. Who or what is the But can a computer populate such a simulation with thinking beings, artificially intelligent simulated beings, like humans? Scientists from Bristol's Centre for Quantum Photonics have developed a silicon chip that could be used to perform complex calculations and simulations using quantum particles in the near future. If recent measurements of cosmic ray particles are correct, then we may have the first evidence that the universe as we know it is really a giant computer simulation.
