Protective Measurement:A Paradigm Shift in Understanding Quantum Mechanics
protective measurement wave function expectation value physical state mass and charge distributions ergodic motion of a particle random discontinuous motion of particles measurement problem
2016/6/13
This article introduces the method of protective measurement and discusses its deep implications for the foundations of quantum mechanics. It is argued that protective measurement implies that the wav...
Operational understanding of the covariance of classical electrodynamics
Operationalism Covariance of Classical Electrodynamics Empirical Verification Transformation Rule Maxwell–Lorentz Equations
2016/6/13
It is common in the literature on classical electrodynamics and relativity theory that the transformation rules for the basic electrodynamic quantities are derived from the pre-assumption that the equ...

2016/5/27
In many fields of biology, researchers explain a phenomenon by characterizing the responsible mechanism. This requires identifying the candidate mechanism, decomposing it into its parts and operations...
Whether simulation models provide the right kind of understanding comparable to that of analytic models has been and remains a contentious issue. The assessment of understanding provided by simulation...
