Relativistic Quantum Mechanics through Frame-Dependent Constructions
Relativistic Quantum Mechanics Frame-Dependent Constructions
2008/4/22
This paper is concerned with the possibility and nature of relativistic hidden-variable formulations of quantum mechanics. Both ad hoc teleological constructions of spacetime maps and frame-dependent ...
Reconciling Spacetime and the Quantum: Relational Blockworld and the Quantum Liar Paradox
blockworld non-relativistic quantum mechanics entanglement
2008/4/22
The Relational Blockworld (RBW) interpretation of non-relativistic quantum mechanics(NRQM) is introduced. Accordingly, the spacetime of NRQM is a relational, nonseparableblockworld whereby spatial dis...
What belongs to quantum theory is no more than what is needed for its derivation. Keeping to this maxim, we record a paradigmatic shift in the foundations of quantum mechanics, where the focus has rec...
Refutability Revamped: How Quantum Mechanics Saves the Phenomena
refutability falsifiability Popper demarcation
2008/4/22
On the basis of the Suppes-Sneed structural view of sientific theories, we take a fresh look at the concept of refutability, which was famously proposed by K.R. Popper in 1934 as a criterion for the d...
Relational Quantum Mechanics and the Determinacy Problem
Rovelli Barrett Mermin Relational Interpretation
2008/4/22
Quantum mechanics describes certain systems as being in superpositions of their properties, yet every measurement on every system that we are able to perform yields a determinate result. The ``orthod...
Science: Freedom and Reason, Comments on Mara Beller's 'Quantum Dialogue'
Quantum Dialogue dialogism Beller demarcation
2008/4/22
Mara Beller's book Quantum Dialogue: The Making of a Revolution is a book in history and historiography, which invites a philosophical reading. The book offers a new and quite radical approach in the ...
In this paper (which is, at best, a work in progress), I discuss different modes of scientific explanation
identified by philosophers
(Hempel, Salmon, Kitcher, Friedman, Hughes)
and
examine how w...
Self-Induced Decoherence and the Classical Limit of Quantum Mechanics
decoherence classical limit quantum mechanics
2008/4/22
In this paper we argue that the emergence of the classical world from the underlying quantum reality involves two elements: self-induced decoherence and macroscopicity. Self-induced decoherence does n...
Self-Induced Selection: A New Approach to Quantum Decoherence
Decoherence Quantum Mechanics
2008/4/22
According to Zurek, decoherence is a process resulting from the interaction between a quantum system and its environment; this process singles out a preferred set of states, usually called “pointer ba...
Simple applications of Noether's first theorem in quantum mechanics and electromagnetism
Noether symmetry free Schrodinger equation
2008/4/22
Internal global symmetries exist for the free non-relativistic Schrodinger particle, whose associated Noether charges---the space integrals of the wavefunction and the wavefunction multiplied by the s...
SOME STEPS TOWARDS A TRANSCENDENTAL DEDUCTION OF QUANTUM MECHANICS
Transcendental quantum physics laws of nature
2008/4/21
The two major options on which the current debate on the interpretation of quantum mechanics relies, namely realism and empiricism, are far from being exhaustive. There is at least one more position a...
This paper assesses the Everettian approach to the measurement problem, especially the version of that approach advocated by Simon Saunders and David Wallace. I emphasise conceptual, indeed metaphysic...
The domains of quantum theory and general relativity overlap in situations where quantum mechanical effects cannot be ignored. In order to deal with this overlap of theoretical domains, there has been...
The Contextual Character of Modal Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics
modal contexuality Kochen Specker theorem
2008/4/21
In this article we discuss the contextual character of quantum mechanics in the framework of modal interpretations. We investigate its historical origin and relate contemporary modal interpretations t...
Testing Quantum State Reduction via Cosmogenic Neutrinos
Wavefunction Collapse Quantum State Reduction
2008/4/21
It is pointed out that the Diosi-Penrose ansatz for gravity-induced quantum state reduction
can be tested by observing oscillations in the flavor ratios of neutrinos originated at
cosmological dista...
