He has made remarkable discoveries in many fields of physics, including quantum optics, tachyons,
quantum Zeno effect, non-invariance groups, positive maps of density matrices, quantum computation, etc.
Evidence of sensitivity to initial conditions can be seen in the
Quantum Zeno Effect. When we understand how questions direct our thoughts, we can ask questions that lead in directions we'd prefer to go.

Quantum Zeno Effect in the Physical Implementation of Conscious Intent," in Mind, Matter, and Quantum Mechanics, 3rd edn., Chapter 14.
The
quantum Zeno effect gives truth to the adage that a watched pot never bolls.
Henry Stapp finds a physical counterpart to the mental action of the will in the Quantum Zeno Effect, which is also a volitional effort overriding mechanical forces.
The phenomenon of will is understood in terms of this effortful control of process I, which can, by means of the quantum Zeno effect, override strong mechanical forces arising from process II, and cause a large deviation of brain activity from what it would be if no mental effort were made.
One of these laws is the Quantum Zeno Effect (QZE).
In the Quantum Zeno Effect, when any system is observed in a sufficiently rapid, repetitive fashion, the rate at which that system changes is reduced.
On the other hand, the collapse of the wave function for such systems would open up the possibility of studying Stapp's model of the inverse
quantum Zeno effect (QZE) (Stapp, 2009;, 2014), proposed to study the possibility that the mind can affect matter (thus solving the old problem of the mind-body causal interaction).
This effect is called the
Quantum Zeno Effect (QZE).
I want to TRY to use the
quantum Zeno effect to obtain, hopefully testably, a "classical enough world" in my try at the Enigma.
Stapp hypothesizes that conscious choices operate via the
quantum Zeno effect (QZE), whereby a sufficiently rapid sequence of state vector reductions can hold a quantum system in place, effectively stopping its evolution.
