Algebraic Quantum Mechanics and Pregeometry [PDF]
We discuss the relation between the q-number approach to quantum mechanics suggested by Dirac and the notion of "pregeometry" introduced by Wheeler. By associating the q-numbers with the elements of an algebra and regarding the primitive idempotents as ...

Probability, Entropy, and Gibbs’ Paradox(es)
Two distinct puzzles, which are both known as Gibbs’ paradox, have interested physicists since they were first identified in the 1870s. They each have significance for the foundations of statistical mechanics and have led to lively discussions with

Using a novel quasi-relativistic wave equation, which can give precise results up to energies ~mc2, exact quantum mechanical solutions are found which corresponds to a particle with mass moving through one-dimensional piecewise constant potentials.

Quantum Information Dimension and Geometric Entropy
Geometric quantum mechanics, through its differential-geometric underpinning, provides additional tools of analysis and interpretation that bring quantum mechanics closer to classical mechanics: state spaces in both are continuous and equipped with ...

Seven Steps Towards the Classical World [PDF]
Classical physics is about real objects, like apples falling from trees, whose motion is governed by Newtonian laws. In standard quantum mechanics only the wave function or the results of measurements exist, and to answer the question of how the ...

We developed and validated a conceptual survey that focuses on the formalism and postulates of quantum mechanics covered in upper-level undergraduate quantum mechanics courses. The concepts included in the quantum mechanics formalism and postulate survey

ALBERT EINSTEIN ET NIELS BOHR SUR LA QUESTION DU REEL DE LA PHYSIQUE QUANTIQUE [PDF]
: The “energization of reality” as a unifying framework for the debate among leading modern physicists regarding the description of reality in quantum mechanics.

Realism and objectivism in quantum mechanics [PDF]
The present study attempts to provide a consistent and coherent account of what the world could be like, given the conceptual framework and results of contemporary quantum theory. It is suggested that standard quantum mechanics can, and indeed should, be

The Many Classical Faces of Quantum Structures
Interpretational problems with quantum mechanics can be phrased precisely by only talking about empirically accessible information. This prompts a mathematical reformulation of quantum mechanics in terms of classical mechanics.
