Usage Examples English
  • "Foam" can also refer to something that is analogous to foam, such as quantum foam.
  • For example, analysis of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation for a centrally symmetric gravitational field in spaces of different dimensions (with help of the resulting uncertainty relation) indicates a preference for three-dimensional space for the emergence of virtual black holes (quantum foam, the basis of the "fabric" of the Universe.).
  • According to quantum mechanics, particle pairs are constantly appearing and disappearing as a quantum foam.
  • This conjecture was interpreted in Quantum Foam and Topological Strings, by Amer Iqbal, Nikita Nekrasov, Andrei Okounkov and Cumrun Vafa.
  • In John Wheeler's geometrodynamic description of quantum mechanics, the small-scale structure of spacetime is described as a quantum foam whose connectivities are not obvious part in large-scale physics, but whose behaviours become more apparent as we probe the surface at progressively smaller scales.

  • Strings are thought to be bundles of energy vibrating in complex ways in both the three physical dimensions of space as well as in "compact directions"—extra dimensions interwoven in the quantum foam (also known as "spacetime foam").
  • The researchers have suggested that the delay could be explained by the presence of quantum foam, the irregular structure of which might slow down photons by minuscule amounts only detectable at cosmic distances such as in the case of the blazar.
  • Together with Walter Strunz he suggested the properties of the quantum foam at the Planck scale, (similar to the movement of particles due to Brownian motion) in the wave function of an atom-beam interference.
  • Quantum foam or spacetime foam is a theoretical quantum fluctuation of spacetime on very small scales due to quantum mechanics.
  • The modern application of stochastics to quantum mechanics involves the assumption of spacetime stochasticity, the idea that the small-scale structure of spacetime is undergoing both metric and topological fluctuations (John Archibald Wheeler's "quantum foam"), and that the averaged result of these fluctuations recreates a more conventional-looking metric at larger scales that can be described using classical physics, along with an element of nonlocality that can be described using quantum mechanics.

  • The quantum foam hypothesis is sometimes used to suggest that tiny wormholes might appear and disappear spontaneously at the Planck scale, [...] in which it was proposed that such wormholes could have been naturally created in the early universe.
