Contextuality in Classical Physics and Its Impact on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 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

Student ability to distinguish between superposition states and mixed states in quantum mechanics

open access: yesPhysical Review Special Topics. Physics Education Research, 2015
Superposition gives rise to the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics and is therefore one of the concepts at the heart of quantum mechanics. Although we have found that many students can successfully use the idea of superposition to calculate the ...

Supersymmetric Wigner–Dunkl quantum mechanics

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2022
Wigner–Dunkl quantum mechanics can be viewed as deformed quantum mechanics, where the commutator between canonical momentum and position operators contains in addition a reflection operator.

The Possibility of Reconciling Quantum Mechanics with Classical Probability Theory

open access: yes, 2007
We describe a scheme for constructing quantum mechanics in which a quantum system is considered as a collection of open classical subsystems. This allows using the formal classical logic and classical probability theory in quantum mechanics. Our approach

Mathematical Modeling of Ion Quantum Tunneling Reveals Novel Properties of Voltage-Gated Channels and Quantum Aspects of Their Pathophysiology in Excitability-Related Disorders

open access: yesPathophysiology, 2021
Voltage-gated channels are crucial in action potential initiation and propagation and there are many diseases and disorders related to them. Additionally, the classical mechanics are the main mechanics used to describe the function of the voltage-gated ...

Semi-classical limit and minimum decoherence in the Conditional Probability Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

open access: yes, 2008
The Conditional Probability Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics replaces the abstract notion of time used in standard Quantum Mechanics by the time that can be read off from a physical clock.

Renormalons in quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Abstract We present a nonrelativistic one-particle quantum mechanics whose perturbative S-matrix exhibits a renormalon divergence that we explicitely compute. The potential of our model is the sum of the 2d Dirac δ-potential — known to require renormalization — and a 1d Dirac δ-potential tilted at an angle.

Mechanochemical Synthesis and Characterization of Nanostructured ErB4 and NdB4 Rare‐Earth Tetraborides

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 6, March 2025.
ErB4 and NdB4 nanostructured powders are produced by mechanochemical synthesis. 5 h mechanical alloying and 4 M HCl acid leaching are used in the production. ErB4 and NdB4 powders exhibit maximum magnetization of 0.4726 emu g−1 accompanied with an antiferromagnetic‐to‐paramagnetic phase transition at about TN = 18 K and 0.132 emu g−1 with a maximum at ...

Review of student difficulties in upper-level quantum mechanics

open access: yesPhysical Review Special Topics. Physics Education Research, 2015
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Upper Division Physics Courses.] Learning advanced physics, in general, is challenging not only due to the increased mathematical sophistication but also because one must continue to build on all of the ...

On the Stochastic Mechanics Foundation of Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Among the famous formulations of quantum mechanics, the stochastic picture developed since the middle of the last century remains one of the less known ones.
