Not Just About the Numbers . . . . If Infinity is some kind of reality: what to do? 1. Classic physics has infinity as conception of Newtonian space and Newtonian time. 2. Quantum theory meets with infinity. 3. Cosmology occupied with infinity. . . . etc . . . . ===. About every part of physics occupied with concept ‘ infinity’. But . . . Infinity is a irrational concept. We cannot measure it. (!) What to do? # I can say: God doesn’t exist because we cannot see him/ her /it, touch him/ her/ it, hear or smell him /her/ it. Millions will agree with this argument. But in Physics I cannot say the Infinity doesn’t exist because we cannot measure it.. Is it true, we cannot measure it, but it appears again and again in many physical and mathematical problems. In spit of my or your or physicists wish it appears again and again because . . . because it is some kind of reality. (!) What to do? # The answer can be only one: If we cannot escape the concept ‘ Infinity’, if ‘ Infinity’ is some kind of reality, then we must agree with it existence and find the ‘ hidden’ parameters of ‘ Infinity’ in Physics. # It seems, that the best role on this place can take only two physical parameters: T= 0K and E= 0 = infinite ( the lowest state of cosmic background energy). # Maybe somebody will suggest another concrete physical parameter or parameters? ========. Best wishes. Israel Sadovnik. Socratus. ========================..
