Schrodinger's mechanics : interpretation
By: Cook, David B.
Publisher: New Jersey World Scientific 2018Description: xiii, 181p.ISBN: 9781786344908.Subject(s): Wave mechanics | Quantum theoryDDC classification: 530.12 | C771s Summary: The interpretation of quantum mechanics has been in dispute for nearly a century with no sign of a resolution. Using a careful examination of the relationship between the final form of classical particle mechanics (the HamiltonJacobi Equation) and Schrödinger's mechanics, this book presents a coherent way of addressing the problems and paradoxes that emerge through conventional interpretations.Schrödinger's Mechanics critiques the popular way of giving physical interpretation to the various terms in perturbation theory and other technologies and places an emphasis on development of the theory and not on an axiomatic approach. When this interpretation is made, the extension of Schrödinger's mechanics in relation to other areas, including spin, relativity and fields, is investigated and new conclusions are reached.| Item type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
