hi all

after reading the book "quantum physics , ilussion or reality" by A Rae, one has to question if the controversy about quantum mechanics of EPR experiments, Copenhage interpretation,Schroedinger cat, etc, all this problems finally has been solved or there still exist . What about the SQUIDS experiments, the Ilia Prigogine work, what's the actual "state of the art" in this topics?

I have this book and like it. Despite its age, nothing has really changed since publication other than "more of the same" in the quantum world. QM predicts, and experiments confirm.
 


It is difficult to definitively say whether the controversy surrounding quantum mechanics has been completely solved or not. While there have been advancements and new theories proposed, there are still ongoing debates and discussions within the scientific community about the interpretation and implications of quantum mechanics. The EPR experiments, Copenhagen interpretation, and Schrödinger's cat are all still widely discussed and debated topics.

In regards to SQUIDS experiments and the work of Ilia Prigogine, these are also still areas of active research and investigation. The field of quantum mechanics is constantly evolving and there are still many unanswered questions and mysteries to be explored.

The "state of the art" in these topics is constantly changing and developing as new research and discoveries are made. It is important to continue to question and critically examine these theories and experiments in order to further our understanding of the quantum world. So while there may not be a definitive answer to whether the controversy has been completely solved, the ongoing discussions and research in this field show that there is still much to be explored and understood.
 
Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...
I asked a question related to a table levitating but I am going to try to be specific about my question after one of the forum mentors stated I should make my question more specific (although I'm still not sure why one couldn't have asked if a table levitating is possible according to physics). Specifically, I am interested in knowing how much justification we have for an extreme low probability thermal fluctuation that results in a "miraculous" event compared to, say, a dice roll. Does a...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles.
