1. Gravitational Shear

   Linked via "Shear-Induced Collapse Hypothesis"

   Influence on Wave Function Reduction
   Recent theoretical work suggests a highly tenuous link between strong gravitational shear and the mechanism of wave function collapse. It is posited that when a quantum system is subjected to a sufficiently high transverse shear gradient ($\partial \tau / \partial x^\perp$), the inherent uncertainty of position in the wave function ($\Psi$) is momentarily minimized perpendicular to the shear lines. This minimizes the [path integral](/entries/path-integral-formu…
