Given the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, is it really possible to create particle/antiparticle pairings that exist for extremely short periods of time before annihilating? Does this really mean that empty space is really empty?
No
>>16263137Anon your rambling jargon that means absolute dog shit. Start reading physics history start with Poincaré. Then work Your way up. Galeio may be interesting too. Newton is my favorite. Mostly anything is better then the bullshit your spewing
>>16263137No. This goes against Noether's theorem. Energy must be conserved because there's temporal symmetry. Heisenberg's principle would violate that, therefore it does not apply
>>16263609Heisenberg's uncertainty principle certainly applies for energy and time which are conjugate variables just as momentum and position are. This is apparent for anyone who's tried to make ultrashort laser pulses, as these will have a broad energy spectrum by necessity.
