gentzen reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Quantum interpretations and indistinguishable elementary particles with
Like.
To clarify a point that might be confusing here, in the light of what I said in post #8 earlier in this thread: if I have a single... -
gentzen reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Quantum interpretations and indistinguishable elementary particles with Like.
Yes. Nobody is disputing that. But, as I've already pointed out, this fact has nothing to do with ensemble interpretations vs...

gentzen reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Quantum interpretations and indistinguishable elementary particles with
Love.
Then why do you keep bringing up elementary particles? Ballentine? I've read it completely, multiple times. Sure, Ballentine advocates... -
gentzen reacted to javisot's post in the thread Is the quantum wave function a real object or a mathematical tool? with Like.

gentzen replied to the thread Is the quantum wave function a real object or a mathematical tool?.No, my opinion is that the number ##3+i1## is not an element of reality. And if it would occur as an entry in a density matrix? Still...
-
gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Exploring Implicit Assumptions and Foundations of Quantum Mechanics.No, you probably don't. Only peer reviewed publications count as references here (or text-books for well-known stuff). He is asking you...

-
gentzen replied to the thread Is the quantum wave function a real object or a mathematical tool?.Independent of whether the wave function is real, it is certainly not an object. Just like an electric field is not an object either...

When you say a real obejct, what do yo mean by that?

What is yours?

gentzen reacted to renormalize's post in the thread Undergrad Why is a Gaussian function used to represent a wave packet? with Like.
Yes, the spreading of single-atom wave packets has been observed experimentally and agrees with theory: In-situ Imaging of a Single-Atom...

gentzen reacted to LarryS's post in the thread Undergrad Why is a Gaussian function used to represent a wave packet? with Like.
I've read that in standard, one-particle (non-relativistic) Quantum Mechanics, physicists often choose a gaussian function to represent...

gentzen reacted to Josiah's post in the thread High School Gravitons/Gravity passing through objects with Like.
Sorry about my ignorance, but what does a particle with spin 2 mean?

gentzen reacted to haushofer's post in the thread Undergrad Ramsauer and Townsend effect: history and explanation with Like.
Dear all, I'm writing an article about the didactics of teaching quantum physics, and in particular the phenomenon of resonant...

gentzen reacted to martinbn's post in the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture with Like.
I agree, I don't see anything in chapter 8 of Albert's book that corresponds to Coleman's argument. So I suppose it is due to Coleman...
