AI Thread Summary
David Bohm's original articles on quantum mechanics from 1952 and Paul Dirac's 1932 paper on the principle of least action are sought after by a user who struggled to locate them in their school's library. Recommendations include utilizing interlibrary loan services to access these materials from other libraries, which may require some waiting time. Links to Bohm's and Dirac's papers are shared, suggesting that the user can read Dirac's paper and request Bohm's through their library. Additional resources, such as JSTOR, are also mentioned as helpful for finding Dirac's work.

I want to find David Bohms original articles on his interpretation of quantum mechanics from 1952. And Paul Diracs 1932 paper on principle of least action in quantum mechanics.
I searched for articles at my schools library and I could find articles that had sighted their names but I did not find their articles that I wanted. Maybe I just didn't search hard enough.
Does anyone have advice on this.

Assuming you're in the USA, talk to the staff at your school's library. There's this thing called "interlibrary loan" where they can get materials (or copies) for you from other libraries. You'll probably have to wait a few days.
 
ok thanks for your response
 
I can read the one by Dirac. I can request the other one from my schools library.
Thanks for your post tho.

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...

I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
