Allender Steele Adams, known as Allen Adams, (16 February 1946 – 5 September 1990), was a British Labour politician.
Adams was born in Glasgow. He married Irene on 24 February 1968.
Adams, a Strathclyde Regional Councillor, was elected Member of Parliament (MP) for Paisley from 1979 to 1983, then for Paisley North from 1983 until his death in 1990 at the age of 44. He had served as Labour's Scottish whip whilst an MP. On 31 March 1988, he described Margaret Thatcher in the House of Commons as having "behaved towards Scotland with all the sensitivity of a sex-starved boa constrictor" (a remark immediately withdrawn, as is the custom in the Commons).
In the by-election that followed his death, his widow, Irene Adams (who had succeeded him on the Strathclyde Council and served as his secretary while he was MP), was elected MP for Paisley North.

More than a billion years ago, two black holes in a distant galaxy locked into a spiral, falling inexorably toward each other, and collided. "All that energy was pumped into the fabric of time and space itself," says theoretical physicist Allan Adams, "making the universe explode in roiling waves of gravity." About 25 years ago, a group of scientists built a giant laser detector called LIGO to search for these kinds of waves, which had been predicted but never observed. In this mind-bending talk, Adams breaks down what happened when, in September 2015, LIGO detected an unthinkably small anomaly, leading to one of the most exciting discoveries in the history of physics.

On March 17, 2014, a group of physicists announced a thrilling discovery: the "smoking gun" data for the idea of an inflationary universe, a clue to the Big Bang. For non-physicists, what does it mean? TED asked Allan Adams to briefly explain the results, in this improvised talk illustrated by Randall Munroe of xkcd.

This is a two and a half minute summary of Allan Adams MIT video on Entanglement at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awpnsGl08bc It covers some ideas in Quantum Computing Basically, I feel I am one of those people living at the intersection of intelligent and reasonable -- that Occam's Razor suggests to me that if all you're getting out of a wave equation is a pair of entangled photons, then that's all you're going to get, aside from some hidden variable concerning the randomness of Quantum Mechanics, since there appears to be no hidden variable with the photons themselves (described in the actual lecture).
