Belief . . . from history of physics. =. Many years Max Planck was attracted with the absolutely black body problem. If quantum of light moving with speed c=1 falls in the area of absolutely black body and does not radiate back, then “ terminal dead “ will come. In order to save the quantum of light from ‘death ‘ Planck decided that it is possible that quantum of light will radiate back with quantum unit (h ), (h=Et ) This unit does not come on formulas or equations. Planck introduced this unit from heaven, from ceiling. Sorry. Sorry. Scientists say: Planck introduced this unit intuitively. They say: Planck introduced unit (h) phenomenologically ===.. Phenomenology. 1. the movement founded by Husserl that concentrates on the detailed description of conscious experience, without recourse to explanation, metaphysical assumptions, and traditional philosophical questions http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/phenomenologically ===… So. Planck discovered the quantum of energy / action ‘without recourse to explanation, metaphysical assumptions, and traditional philosophical questions’. Many years Planck tried to find rational explanation for his unit but without success. We can read that unit (h) is an ’inner’ impulse (spin) of particle. But what ’inner impulse’ means? We have no answer. ==. There are 1000 books and millions articles about ‘philosophy of science’ but how can I believe them if they didn’t explain me ‘what quantum particle is’. Our today’s belief in science is similar to the past belief in religion: ‘ I believe because it is absurd.’ / Tertullian. (ca.160 – ca.220 AD) / ( in science – big bang, in religion - God create woman from Adam’s rib.) ==..
