The foundations of probability and quantum mechanics

Journal of Philosophical Logic, 1993
Starting with two interpretations of probability, viz. relative frequencies of attributes in infinite sequences, and betting quotients under weak coherence, the author establishes upper and lower probabilities [à la \textit{I. J. Good's} paper, Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science, Proc. 1960 internat. Congr. 319-329 (1962; Zbl 0192.021)]. This

Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

2017
In this chapter, we introduce the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. We commence by discussing the famous Stern-Gerlach experiments for a particle with the spin 1∕2 as several key quantum mechanical phenomena may be well understood thereof.

Abstract since the kinetic energy of the nuclei is usually small owing to their large masses, H0 can be taken as the zeroth approximation for the actual Hamiltonian of the system:

Foundations of quantum mechanics?

Physica Scripta, 2011
Does quantum mechanics have unsolved foundational problems? Is there a dividing line between the quantum and classical descriptions of the world? In this paper, I give an elementary introduction to the mathematical aspects of quantum and classical models which have prompted such questions.

Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

2016
The field of quantum foundations seeks to answer questions such as: What do the elements of the mathematical formalism of quantum theory represent? From what physical principles can the formalism be derived? What are the precise ways in which a quantum world differs from a classical world and other possible worlds?

The foundations of quantum mechanics

Foundations of Physics, 1988
Starting from a set of assumptions mainly of an “operational” or experimentally based nature, a derivation of quantum mechanics is presented, with the aim of clarifying the essential features of the theory and their interpretation. Various properties of quantum mechanics such as the addition of amplitudes, the calculation of probabilities, de Broglie's

Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

2001
In the six papers devoted to the foundations of quantum mechanics four subjects are treated. They are distributed over the papers as follows: Quantum logic The Copenhagen interpretation and Bohm Hidden parameters and Bell’s theorem EPR-situation and Bell’s inequality In the following introduction [27], being merely an account, is ...
