The Oxford Questions on the foundations of quantum physics [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2013 The twentieth century saw two fundamental revolutions in physics—relativity and quantum. Daily use of these theories can numb the sense of wonder at their immense empirical success. Does their instrumental effectiveness stand on the rock of secure concepts or the sand of unresolved fundamentals?

Fresh perspectives on the foundations of quantum physics
Nature Reviews Physics, 2023 As we are at the beginning of the second century of quantum physics, we asked four researchers to share their views on new research directions trying to answer old, yet still open, questions in the foundations of quantum theory.

Contextuality in Classical Physics and Its Impact on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
Entropy, 2021 It is shown that the hallmark quantum phenomenon of contextuality is present in classical statistical mechanics (CSM). It is first shown that the occurrence of contextuality is equivalent to there being observables that can differentiate between pure and

On the foundations of quantum physics [PDF]
Physics Essays, 2012 Some aspects of the interpretation of microscopic physics in terms of quantum theory are discussed. It is first emphasized that quantum theory is formulated in a Cartesian coordinate system; in other coordinates the result obtained with the help of the Hamiltonian formalism and commutation relations between ''canonically conjugated'' coordinate and ...

Foundations of Quantum Physics [PDF]
, 2008 This book is meant to be a text for a first course in quantum physics. It is assumed that the student has had courses in Modern Physics and in mathematics through differential equations. The book is otherwise self-contained and does not rely on outside resources such as the internet to supplement the material.

Towards Relational Foundations for Spacetime Quantum Physics
UniverseRovelli’s relational interpretation of quantum mechanics tells us that the description of a system in the formalism of quantum mechanics is not an absolute but is relative to the observer itself.

On foundation of quantum physics [PDF]
Physics of Atomic Nuclei, 2009 Some aspects of the interpretation of quantum theory are discussed. It is emphasized that quantum theory is formulated in the Cartesian coordinate system; in other coordinates the result obtained with the help of the Hamiltonian formalism and commutator relations between 'canonically conjugated' coordinate and momentum operators leads to a wrong ...
