Gaussian quantum fields and stochastic electrodynamics

Physical Review A, 1988
The relation between quantum electrodynamics and (classical) stochastic electrodynamics is elucidated by means of a general construction which associates with every Gaussian quantum field (for example, vacuum-free fields or coherent states at zero or nonzero temperature) a classical random field, which in the case of quantum electrodynamics yields ...

The harmonic oscillator in stochastic electrodynamics

Il Nuovo Cimento B Series 11, 1974
Classical electrodynamics with the hypothesis of a universal, Lorentz invariant, background radiation (stochastic electrodynamics) has been proposed as a possible alternative to quantum electrodynamics. The stochastic equations of motion of a charged particle are derived according to this theory, and they are compared with those of Brownian motion.

Stochastic Electrodynamics an Overview

1983
As a sequel to the absorber theory of radiation of Wheeler and Feynman,1 Braffort and Tzara2 postulated the existence of a universal random electromagnetic field at the absolute zero of temperature—the zero-point field.

The spin of the electron according to stochastic electrodynamics

Foundations of Physics, 1982
By making use of the method of moments we study some aspects of the statistical behavior of the nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator according to stochastic electrodynamics. We show that the random rotations induced on the particle by the zero-point field account for the magnitude of the spin of the electron, the result differing from the correct one(3 ...

Spontaneous emission and stochastic electrodynamics

Lettere al Nuovo Cimento, 1984
Einstein's spontaneous emission is considered as the emission induced by the zero point field of stochastic electrodynamics. Using this concept the transition probability per unit time is calculated.

Stochastic electrodynamics as a foundation for quantum mechanics

Physics Letters A, 1976
Abstract We develop a statistical description for a particle coupled to the zero-point radiation field, and apply it to the harmonic oscillator. We recover the quantum mechanical description as a limiting case of the corresponding statistical description in configuration space.

Stochastic Electrodynamics General Considerations

1980
Stochastic Electrodynamics is a tentative to account for the peculiarities of quantum physics from a completely classical point of view. It has the advantage over many other attempts on that way to be physically well defined and to lead to equations which are not impossible to solve, so that it is possible to check the theory against experiment or ...

A Brief Survey of Stochastic Electrodynamics

1980
Stochastic electrodynamics and random electrodynamics are the names given to a particular version of classical electrodynamics. This purely classical theory is Lorentz’s classical electron theory(1) into which one introduces random electromagnetic radiation (classical zero-point radiation) as the boundary condition giving the homogeneous solution of ...

Stochastic Electrodynamics and the Bell Inequalities

1985
The basic ideas of stochastic electrodynamics are presented. In the light of these ideas, some general differences between quantum mechanics and local realistic theories are pointed out. The atomic-cascade experimental tests of Bell’s inequalities are analyzed and a loophole is reported in the refutation of local realism due to an incorrect ...
