At the undergrad level, see the following: https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0703126 It's not the last word on the subject, but at the...

That is certainly wrong. Any detection is associated with decoherence.

Busy, maybe?

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...

In some sense yes , since eigenvalues are used but not as "standard" QM since measurement yields so called Q-expectation. I am not too...

As the term "interpretation" is used in this subforum, these theories are not interpretations. They are alternate theories, since they...

I am by no means an expert, but I would disagree that objective collapse theories can be called "interpretations" of quantum mechanics...

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...

This link now contains a significantly expanded version, ready for publication. New additions are (in addition to other small...

I tried to define everything that is not in typical textbooks. For a single field ##\phi##, the N-point function is simply the map (and...

A (classical or quantum) particle is a quantum field concentrated at each time in a small region of space. I tried to avoid the use of...

It is finished for submission, and I put it online to get some early feedback before actually submitting it (in a few weeks). So the...

Based on the thermal interpretation, I developed a quantum version of the classical, mechanical universe suggested by Laplace over 200...

Oh, no! Thank you for letting us know, Robert. Your dad was amazing and I will miss him

Very very sad news indeed. Phinds did not suffer fools but he was an absolute gent. Took the time to reply to my DMs over the years...
