TY - JOUR AU - Bukalov, Aleksandr PY - 2016/09/25 Y2 - 2024/03/28 TI - On the nature of consciousness and psyche JF - Physics of Consciousness and Life, Cosmology and Astrophysics JA - Physics of Consc VL - 16 IS - 3-4 SE - Articles DO - UR - https://physics.socionic.info/index.php/physics/article/view/482 SP - 5-41 AB - <p>It is a review of the nature of consciousness and psyche, and their correlation with neurophysiological structures. A number of studies show that the processes of consciousness and thinking are adequately described only using the concepts of quantum mechanics, which leads to questions about the quantum nature of mental processes and consciousness. Since the neural substrate can not provide the manifestation of quantum processes, a number of researchers consider the concepts of consciousness in which neural structures are related to others, having a quantum nature and associated with neurons. The emergence of such concepts is also associated with the existence of living and working people who lack up to 90% of the brain. At the same time, in the history of medicine, cases of people with completely degraded neuronal structures of the brain are recorded. It is also considered the author's hypothesis - the concept of quantum biological structures - condensates with superfluidity properties, from light elementary particles. The presence of such structure, interacting with the molecular structures of a living organism, explains all known phenomena of the psyche and consciousness. In this case, the proposed hypothesis has verifiable experimental consequences.</p> ER -
