PeterDonis's latest activity
-
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.Yes: it adds the actual position and velocity of each particle. But it also changes how the wave function, which is also present in... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Double Stern-Gerlach with an Intermediate Electron Cloud.The way to answer that would be to calculate the energy of each state. Note that by calling the ##5s^2## state the "ground" state you... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Double Stern-Gerlach with an Intermediate Electron Cloud.Yes, because the orthogonal analyzer is measuring a different observable, and eigenstates of the first are equal-amplitude... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Double Stern-Gerlach with an Intermediate Electron Cloud.It seems like the reason you are looking at this is to see if reducing or eliminating the magnetic moment changes what happens in an S-G... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Double Stern-Gerlach with an Intermediate Electron Cloud.This means the silver atom is now charged when it passes through the second S-G apparatus--which completely breaks the apparatus, since... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.Note, though, that you have to do postselection of the data from the A and D measurements regardless of whether A and D are measured... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.Is the word "spurious" really justified here? After all, when B and C come together just before ##t_2##, B is entangled with the A... -
PeterDonis reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics with
Like.
If particles no longer exist, then something else absorbed their energy, momentum and quantum information. For example, a photon is... -
PeterDonis reacted to Matterwave's post in the thread Graduate Pilot wave persistence after measurement in Bohmian entanglement with
Like.
I don't find anything objectionable (at least at first impression) in what Norsen says. But do note that he says "statistics" for a... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Pilot wave persistence after measurement in Bohmian entanglement.And you say this despite not understanding what BM actually says. That's enough. I am closing this thread for moderation, so that other... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Pilot wave persistence after measurement in Bohmian entanglement.He says that B's future trajectory after A's measurement is affected. He does not say that B's current position at the time of A's... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Pilot wave persistence after measurement in Bohmian entanglement.Can you give a link? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Question regarding information preservation in Hawing radiation models.What makes you think this is even a valid concept in textbook models to begin with? You say you have reviewed the literature. Can you... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Pilot wave persistence after measurement in Bohmian entanglement.While BM is indeed referred to in the literature as ##\psi##-ontic, it's very different from other such interpretations, because, as has... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Are classical optics and quantum mechanics double slit experiments fundamentally the same?.No one has ever told you otherwise. Indeed, the PF rules that you signed up to when you joined tell you that you should provide links to...
