Has anybody seen this theory before, If so, do you have more information on it.

"An introduction to the tomographic
picture of quantum mechanics"



http://arxiv.org/pdf/0904.4439.pdf

Thanks

The author is from The Russian academy of science(Noble prizes). He has a very interesting take on QM.

This is one of his oldest papers.

Conventional Quantum Mechanics Without

I'm not sure it's a new version of QM. It seems like QM using Wigner functions, which could rightly be called tomographic because of its use in quantum state tomography, as well as its relationship to the Radon transform.

An good introduction to QM using Wigner functions is Surya Ganguli's http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/49800/50586846.pdf .

An introduction to quantum state tomography is Lvovsky and Raymer's http://old.rqc.ru/quantech/pubs/2009/tomography-rmp.pdf.
