Hello, I work in the matter-wave-realism tradition (de Broglie, Bohm, Schrödinger's original reading), and my focus is the relationship between spacetime and the matter-wave field without introducing additional quantisation of either.

There is no such thing in physics, so I think you should reconsider what you are working on :wink:

Anyways, welcome to PF!

You may not find even a quantum of solace here!

Standard QFT refers to Dirac fields as "matter fields", which is also what I am referring to, but using matter-wave field wrt to "matter-wave realism".

Maudlin's Philosophy of Physics: Quantum Theory (2019) is a good modern entry point.

Undergrad Thread 'Could Tim Maudlin's Views on Bell and QM Be Flawed?'

Hi All

I have never been particularly impressed with Tim Mauldin's general take on Bell and QM. I am reading an article of his at the moment. Here is an excerpt (lightly edited by Grammarly to have correct punctuation, etc).

But for expository purposes, the point is most clearly made by an example later developed by Daniel Greenberger, Michael Horne and Anton Zeilinger (as exposited by David Mermin). This later example uses a triple of entangled particles sent off to Alice, Bob, and Charlie in arbitrarily widely separated labs. The separation ensures that in a local...
