Penrose-Hameroff Quantum Tubulin Electrons, Chiao Gravity Antennas, and Mead Resonance
Abstract
Penrose and Hameroff have proposed that consciousness in the human brain may be based on gravitational interactions and quantum superposition states of electrons in tubulin cages in microtubules. Chiao has proposed experimental construction of a gravity antenna that might be analogous to tubulin caged electrons. Tegmark has criticized Penrose-Hameroff quantum consciousness, based on thermal decoherence of any such quantum superposition states. This paper briefly describes some experimental results and theoretical ideas that indicate to me that Tegmark's criticism may be invalid. Such theoretical ideas include Mead's quantum physics of resonance. This paper closes with brief summaries of ● relevant experiments of Grinberg-Zylberbaum, ● the quantum cosmology of Paula Zizzi, and ● 26-dimensional closed unoriented bosonic string theory interpreted as a manyworlds quantum theory in which strings correspond to world lines, with massless spin-2 gravitons in 26-dimensions corresponding to gravitational interaction among tubulin electrons in states with Penrose-Hameroff superposition separation. Penrose-Hameroff Quantum Consciousness Roger Penrose and Stuart Hameroff propose that Consciousness involves a Planck scale Decoherence of Quantum Superpositions that they call in their paper entitled Orchestrated Objective Reduction file:///iCube/Desktop%20Folder/QuantumMind%202004/QuantumMind2004.html (1 of 27) [12/2/2004 1:46:00 PM] Quantum Consciousness of Quantum Coherence in Brain…
