    in the quantum has either field been found

    we do know that the further that quarks get away from each other , the stronger the attraction becomes

    that implies a form of energy within the quantum world

    Not that I have read.
    Could they be dimensions? Is the Planck length a quanta of length or just the smallest distance that can be measured? from Wikipedia on Planck length
    So does that mean the other dimensions have quanta? If they do they are just too small to see.

    What?

    What are you talking about?

    How many dimensions are there? I haven't checked it out lately but 12 years ago they were talking in terms of 11 in the String Theory, so what are their names?
    I'm only asking questions so if you know the answer tell me.

    How does that relate to your question "could they [fields] be dimensions?"?
    Do you know what a dimension is?

    I was asking myself the same question and the answer is NO. So I thought of length or distance, in one of the spatial dimensions and asked "is there a quanta of length?"
    As I quoted there seems to be the shortest possible length to spatial dimensions and time dimensions.

    That would be quantum of length. Quanta is a plural.
    And you're still making no sense...

    Is that all you can say? I thought you were going to tell me how many dimensions there are and their names.

    Dimensions have nothing to do per se with fields.
    And the number depends on which particular theory you're looking at.
    Names? :wtf:
    Eggnog.
    Tastes like chicken.
    Weird.
    Really weird.
    Sideways.

    Right.

    You lack in one dimension only then!

    Ah, you can't add up.
    I listed 8.
    Those, plus length, breadth and height total 11 spatial dimensions. Time makes it twelve.

    You missed my point, sorry. So they are the real names of the dimension, for God's sake!

    but what the physical aspects to it

    this is the thing , we are taking mathematic pondering as to the full understanding of a physical object

    of course

    but quanta is not a mathematical dimensional

    quanta is a physical dimension

    understand the difference ?




    quanta is far , far , far , far . far to small to see

    Word salad.

    What makes you think quantum is a dimension?
    What's the difference between a physical dimesnion and a mathematical one?

    In what sense do you mean "see"? We can measure/ detect it.
    For example a single photon is one quantum of light.

    No that's good, thanks for that. But mathematically are you allowed to divide a quantum by 100? I know you could but I thought it was supposed to be the smallest unit, indivisible.
    So the physical and the mathematical should be the same.

    Note this is new territory for me ok.

    because it is very much smaller than a atom and comes from the atomic( and we know that an atom has a solid center) , whether its element form or molecule form




    the physical dimension is real and goes into the minute beyond quarks

    mathematics is the predicter , it predicts( in the abstract ) where things should be or will be , hence a mathematical dimension , hence time

    WTF does that have to do with being a dimension?
    And, no, atoms don't have a "solid centre".

    More word salad.

    And this.

    Try looking here for a beginner's guide.

    a physical dimension

    because things in the micro physcial behave different from things in the macrophysical


    not true

    it was the old Rutherford or Eddington experiment , if I remember right , that proved that atoms have a solid center
