About Quantum Mechanics


Quantum mechanics, including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles. Classical physics, the physics existing before quantum mechanics, describes nature at ordinary scale.

Anoosheh Ashoori tells of Iran jail 'hell'

Feb 16,2020 12:41 am

Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>Anoosheh Ashoori still has to pinch himself to be sure that he really is safe Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>At Home with his wife in Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>South London and no longer in the " hell" of Evin jail in Tehran.

" I still can't believe sometimes that I Am Back , " he told me from his Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Living Room in Lewisham. " When I was in my cell I used to pinch myself When I was dreaming that I was with Sherry. Then I would wake up to the reality of being in my cell. Here, it's Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Other way around. "

It's a Big - But Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Happy - adjustment to a Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>New Life of freedom, which began with his favourite beer and a Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Full English breakfast.

" Even When I'm awake, for example sitting in Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Garden , I sometimes say this cannot be true, this cannot be happening. I must be in my cell and I'm expecting any moment to wake up. So I'm preparing myself not to be too upset When I wake up. It's still quite a challenge for me to be easy with being here. "

" Still at night sometimes I touch Sherry's hand to see if this is real, if this is happening. "

In August 2017, the 68-year old was visiting his elderly mother, who had just had a knee operation, When he was bundled into a van, blindfolded and later accused of spying for Israel.

At first he and Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>His Family assumed it was a mistake. The retired engineer had never been involved in politics. Among his inventions: a product to protect Iranian homes after a devastating earthquake in 2003, and self-heating boots for his daughter's cake stall in Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Greenwich Market .

" You always ask - 'why me?'" he says. " It's like When there is an aircraft accident and somebody's child is in that aircraft. Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Mother may ask 'why me?' Why my child? "

It was only later that he realised that he was being held as a bargaining chip.

Iran wanted something from Britain - the repayment of a decades-old military debt.

" It wasn't me who was important, " Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>He Said . " It was Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Passport that was being arrested - But the holder of that passport was me. "

On 17 Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>March , - walked down Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Steps of a plane at RAF Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Brize Norton .

Their release came after the UK finally paid Back Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Money it owed Tehran for a tank deal which, after the Islamic Revolution of 1979, was not fulfilled. Although both Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The British and Iranian government have said the two issues should not be linked.

But British-born wildlife conservationist, Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Morad Tahbaz , was Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Left Behind and Mr Ashoori says he can't celebrate while such a " good" man is still behind bars.

" He's ill and needs medical attention, " Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>He Said . " Sometimes I think it should have been him instead of me on that plane, and Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Guilty feeling you have that you have left all these Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Good Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>People behind is really painful. That is something I cannot come to terms with. I urge Mr Johnson to complete this Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Good Work and to make sure that they are Back - Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>Morad and Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Other British nationals. "

He knows painfully well the conditions which they are enduring in Evin jail. He shared a cell with cockroaches, bedbugs and 14 or 15 Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>People - making his own headphones out of wire and foam to Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>Block Out Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Sound of other inmates' snoring.

" Although many of them are highly educated it is very difficult for all of you to always live in peace together. So sometimes fights happen. But then we learn Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>To Live with each other because we don't have any other choice. "

The hardest part of his ordeal was at the Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Start - When he was held in solitary confinement and interrogated for hours at time. " I've put that behind me. I try not to think about it much, " he says.

Threats were made against Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>His Family and he tried several times to take his own life, thwarted only by prison guards.

But he says Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Most painful part of Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Experience was seeing Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Suffering of other inmates driven mad by their incarceration.

" There are Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>People there who are like zombies, " he told me. " They just go Back and forth in Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Yard . Sometimes you see them talking to themselves and gesticulating. They're in their own world. "

Then there's " the shrapnel" that hits the Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Family Members of those wrongfully imprisoned. Mr Ashoori is well aware of Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Price his wife and children have paid, as they campaigned to get him free, often struggling for media and government attention.

It was memories of Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>His Family , and the camaraderie of fellow-inmates, that kept him sane. " When you are in your cell, you're always looking Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Behind You . You're always trying to remember all Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Good memories that you had with your family. You're living in your memories. "

To pass Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Days , he exercised religiously, wrote copious diary entries and formed a Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Poetry Society .

" It ended up with eight of us who would regularly meet in one of Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Rooms . Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Among Us was a satirist. Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>He Said he could teach us Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>How To write Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Short Stories . So then we had another Class - Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Short Story writing. This initiated the thought that to fill up Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Our Time we could form other societies. "

Mr Ashoori added: " There was this friend who had a PhD in physics. So he started teaching us Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Quantum Mechanics . We had this very close friend who was a professor at university, teaching economics. So he started teaching us macroeconomics, microeconomics, Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Managerial Economics . We had another inmate who had served as a diplomat in Venezuela. He had learned Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>How To speak Spanish so we started having Spanish classes. We started having a philosophy Class just before I left. "

He calls it " the University of Evin".

" You really learn Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>How To be resilient because you have so many challenges from Class ='person_find_kisi' data-tip='kisi' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Time you Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Get Up , " he says.

His task now is to learn how Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>To Live a Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Normal Life again.

" He keeps asking permission for stuff - to take mugs, to do very normal things that you don't ask permission for, " says his wife, Sherry. " He's very sensitive to sounds, I've noticed. For example, if we close Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Fridge door he'll jump. "

But the couple are Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Looking Forward to " just getting Back to our ordinary life" Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>She Said .

" Obviously we'd really like to have a nice holiday But for Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Moment even Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Daily routine of life is nice. Just having a cup of tea is nice. Sitting together watching a film or series is nice. He's missed so much over Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>The Past four and a half years. I look forward to reintroducing him to them. "

The question in her mind, and in that of Mr Ashoori, is why it has taken so long to get him Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Back Home .

" They could have done this much earlier. Nazanin could have seen her beautiful daughter much earlier. I could have been Back with Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>My Family , " he says.

" Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>This Was a debt that had to be paid. Why didn't you do it earlier? Why did we have to go through all these years? Could they stand even Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>One Day of it in Class ='person_find_diger' data-tip='diger' data-kimlik='3600880'>Evin Prison ? If they had actually experienced that they would have done it much earlier. "
