A. Neumaier's latest activity
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Consistency of Relativistic QM.I had written this from memory, and was wrong. Actually.Hida distributions can be used to construct the Feynman path integral (which is...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Undergrad Scattering Theory: Difference between use of scattering amplitude and Born approximation?.The latter is (as the name says) an approximation of the former, where only the first order term in the Born series is taken into account.
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Consistency of Relativistic QM.This is the Euclidean (Feynman-Kac) path integral, which is mathematically better behaved. But QFT needs the Minkowski (Feynman) path...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Consistency of Relativistic QM.Talagrand is a mathematician who tried to understand standard relativistic QFT and then wrote his book about what he found. He is not...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.yes, and a very poor one in most cases, except when a system is nearly in the ground state (as for molecules in much of quantum...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.In the present paper I don't use the term q-expectation. All terminology used in the paper is explained there. The Born rule is derived...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.In the Stern-Gerlach experiment discussed on p.15, <P_+> and <P_-> are the propensity for a single silver atom to appear on the left or...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.Your question is ill-posed. Since this hydrogen atom interacts with other atoms, it is in a mixed state, obtained from the state of this...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.No. I am using the standard unitary formalism of QM applied to QFT for the whole universe. Then I draw consequences for it's physical...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.For a physical system in a pure state ##\psi##, the matrix elements ##\langle X \rangle=\psi^*X\psi## may be regarded as providing its...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Graduate Universal quantum physics.This link now contains a significantly expanded version, ready for publication. New additions are (in addition to other small...
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.??? How can the observer's brain solve the Schrödinger equation in real time?
-
A. Neumaier reacted to PeroK's post in the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics with
Like.
One could argue that if the electron does not exist between measurements, then it cannot be described by a state or wave-function (or... -
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.It would mean that the Schrödinger equation (or whatever differential equation the state is assumed to satisfy) breaks down somewhere.
-
A. Neumaier replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.More interesting (and applicable to QFT) is the book A. Hobson, Fields and Their Quanta, 2024. It also gives a realist account...
