The article explains the Bell inequality using Monte Carlo simulations in Python, and shows how non-local action-at-a-distance can be used to break it with entangled qubits.

This blog post explores foundational quantum mechanics concepts such as superposition, entanglement, and the challenges posed by locality and determinism, while highlighting the historical efforts of Einstein and Bohm to reconcile these phenomena with hidden variable theories.

I run Monte Carlo simulations to show the frequntist solution to the German tank problem.

I use Monte Carlo simulations to explore the dynamic behaviour of probabilistic spin glasses, specifically how saturation scales with $p$ and $N$.

This is a continuation of the previous articles on probabilistic spin glasses. I run simulations to understand the scaling behaviour for large spin glasses.

This is a continuation of the previous article on probabilistic spin glasses, with improvements to the simulation code and improved entropy computation. 
Marton Trencseni - Sat 11 December 2021 • Tagged with entropy, physics, spin, glass
I run Monte Carlo simulations on probabilistic spin glasses, a simple mathematical model of magnetized matter with short range interactions. I use entropy to characterize the model's order-disorder transition.

I derive the Sackur-Tetrode equation for entropy of a monatomic ideal gas. 
Marton Trencseni - Fri 19 November 2021 • Tagged with entropy, physics
I show the first steps of how to arrive at a definition of entropy for a monatomic ideal gas modeled as hard billiard balls.

This post is about the amazing success of Einstein's general theory of relativity. The theory predicts, among other things the accelerating Universe, black holes, gravitational lensing and gravitational waves. The real shocker is to remember that Einstein didn't invent general relativity to explain these. He didn’t know about these, they didn't exist at that time!
