Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics, 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.

Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

Nature, 1964
The physical significance of the waves which, according to de Broglie’s concept, are related to the motion of particles was not discovered immediately. Attempts were made at first to regard the particles themselves as consisting of waves and distributed in some region of space.

Foundations for Quantum Mechanics

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1970
A discussion is given of the structure of a physical theory and an ``ideal form'' for such a theory is proposed. The essential feature is that all concepts should be defined in operational terms. Quantum (and classical) mechanics is then formulated in this way (the formulation being, however, restricted to the kinematical theory).

The late 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century were buzzing with several scientific advancements. The invention of subatomic particles, the birth of the theory of relativity, and the formulation of quantum mechanics were some of the most outstanding achievements of this period that changed the way we understand nature.

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?

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?

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:
