Basic Knowledge to Build the Quantum Theory Back To Erik's Chemistry: Main Page
  • I. Scientists have accepted the notion of atoms even prior to the time of Dalton who developed a crude atomic theory based upon the work of Lavosier, Proust and himself.
    • Lavosier: Law of Conservation of Mass
    • Proust: Law of Definite Proportions
    • Dalton: Law of Multiple proportions
    From that time, scientists (chemists and physicists) have been concerned with the nature of the atom.
    • Dalton: "billiard ball" or "bb" model
    • Thompson: "plumb pudding" or "raisin bun" model
    • Rutherford: "nucleus model" with electrons orbiting the nucleus
    The development in physics during the first thirty years of the 20th century led to a greater understanding of the nature of the atom, particularly the organization of the electron cloud (the mostly empty space around the nucleus from Rutherford). The tool that was used to "dissect" or probe the atom was electromagnetic radiation (EMR), form of energy thought (remember our time frame in history) to consist entirely of waves oscillating in electric and magnetic force fields positioned at right angles with respect to each other.

    (Enter summary) Abstract: It is argued that underlying the Church-Turing hypothesis there is an implicit physical assertion. Here, this assertion is presented explicitly as a physical principle: `every finitely realizable physical system can be perfectly simulated by a universal model computing machine operating by finite means'. Classical physics and the universal Turing machine, because the former is continuous and the latter discrete, do not obey the principle, at least in the strong form above. A class of...

    Chapter 1.3: Beyond Introductory Wave Mechanics
    This book is based on material taught to final-year physics undergraduates as part of the theoretical physics option at Imperial College. After a self-contained introduction to the essential ideas of vector spaces and linear operators, a bridge is built between the concepts and mathematics of classical physics, and the new mathematical framework employed in quantum mechanics. The axioms of nonrelativistic quantum theory are introduced, and shown to lead to a variety of new conceptual problems. Subjects discussed include state-vector reduction, the problem of measurement, quantum entanglement, the Kochen-Specker theorem, and the Bell inequalities. The book includes twenty-five problems with worked solutions.

    66. Is Time Travel Possible
    Black holes, spacetime continuum, paradoxes, quantum theory, alternative universes and suspended animation.
    http://www.thekeyboard.org.uk/Is time travel possible
    Is time travel possible? There are many theories on the possibility of time travel and I could not possibly go into them all. Instead I will try and keep it simple. Not an easy task. A look back in time. The 'Crab' Nebula. First, lets take look at what we know, or more accurately, what we think we know, Black holes, according to relativity theory, warp spacetime with their enormously powerful gravitation field. The effect of this gravitational field is that if an astronaut were to cross the event horizon of a black hole time would slow down on board his spacecraft as he approached the singularity and eventually come to a stop. See What is Time? Similarly time slows down in proportion to speed, the faster our astronaut travels the slower time runs. The closer the astronaut travels to the speed of light the more time slows, until at the speed of light, time would stop. All of which illustrates that time is not a fixed constant, it is affected by gravitational fields and relative speed in the same manner as the other three dimensions of space, the collective dimensions of space and time being referred to as the space-time continuum. The solutions to particular equations of the Special Theory of Relativity can be expressed mathematically in any direction of time without running into any problems with infinities, which can often be the stumbling block for many pure mathematicians. Does this mean that time travel is possible? There is nothing in relativity that rules out time travel, it would appear to be theoretically possible, but I refer back to my earlier question, where are these time travellers?

    by Mohsen Razavy (University of Alberta, Canada)
    This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theoretical foundations of quantum tunneling, stressing the basic physics underlying the applications. The topics addressed include exponential and nonexponential decay processes and the application of scattering theory to tunneling problems. In addition to the Schrödinger equation approach, the path integral, Heisenberg's equations and the phase space method are all used to study the motion of a particle under the barrier. Extensions to the multidimensional cases and tunneling of particles with internal degrees of freedom are also considered. Furthermore, recent advances concerning time delay and tunneling times and some of the problems associated with their measurement are also discussed. Finally, some examples of tunneling in atomic, molecular, nuclear and condensed matter physics are presented.
    Contents:
    • A Brief History of Quantum Tunneling
    • Some Basic Questions Concerning Quantum Tunneling
    • Semi-Classical Approximations
    • Generalization of the Bohr–Sommerfeld Quantization Rule and its Application to Quantum Tunneling
    • Gamow's Theory, Complex Eigenvalues, and the Wave Function of a Decaying State

    Recent developments in atomic physics and quantum optics have made possible experimental studies of some of the unresolved issues in the foundations of quantum mechanics. The same techniques look promising for the construction of quantum computers and communication systems whose security is ensured by quantum cryptography. The quantum theory group at Carnegie Mellon is studying various problems related to quantum foundations and quantum information theory, including computation and cryptography.
    The consistent histories approach to quantum theory was initiated at Carnegie Mellon in 1984, and was subsequently developed both here and at several other institutions. At the present time it provides the only fully consistent procedure for integrating probability theory into standard quantum mechanics without appealing to measurements or hidden variables. See the Consistent Histories Homepage for further information. It has been used to study a variety of problems in cosmology, quantum optics, and quantum information theory. Current research at Carnegie Mellon includes the application of consistent histories ideas to resolve some of the long-standing paradoxes of quantum theory, such as two-slit interference and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlated states, without having to invoke mysterious long-range influences or other ghostly effects.
    Significant Carnegie Mellon contributions to quantum information theory include: a major simplification in the final step of Shor's factorization algorithm, and a rigorous mathematical bound on the amount of information available to an eavesdropper in one of the better-studied schemes for quantum cryptography. Current research includes finding new ways to quantify the information contents of quantum systems, and algorithms for NMR quantum computing.

    Quantum Theory timeline
    At the start of the twentieth century, scientists believed that they understood the most fundamental principles of nature. Atoms were solid building blocks of nature; people trusted Newtonian laws of motion; most of the problems of physics seemed to be solved. However, starting with Einstein's theory of relativity which replaced Newtonian mechanics, scientists gradually realized that their knowledge was far from complete. Of particular interest was the growing field of quantum mechanics, which completely altered the fundamental precepts of physics.
    Particles discovered 1898 - 1964:
    Max Planck suggests that radiation is quantized (it comes in discrete amounts.) Albert Einstein , one of the few scientists to take Planck's ideas seriously, proposes a quantum of light (the photon) which behaves like a particle. Einstein's other theories explained the equivalence of mass and energy, the particle-wave duality of photons, the equivalence principle, and special relativity. Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden , under the supervision of Ernest Rutherford , scatter alpha particles off a gold foil and observe large angles of scattering, suggesting that atoms have a small, dense, positively charged nucleus.

    th November, 1998 Does the 'many-worlds' interpretation of quantum mechanics imply immortality? James Higgo 18 Harcourt Terrace London SW10 9JR e-mail j@higgo.com Abstract The 'Many-Worlds' Interpretation of Quantum Physics The weirdness of quantum physics can be seen in the famous parallel-slit experiment. This shows that individual photons seem to split into two particles which can nevertheless interfere with each other as if they were waves. The 'Copenhagen Interpretation' of the phenomena and the equations which describe them, agreed at the 1927 Solvay conference, essentially says that the 'wave packet' somehow associated with a particle 'collapses' when it is observed - this necessitates a relationship between the observer's consciousness and the particle. The MWI, on the other hand, holds that the equations used to predict quantum mechanical events continue to hold after observation - it is just that all things happen simultaneously, but due to 'decoherence' we do not actually see, for example, a radioactive source both decay and not decay. For an explanation of how this implies parallel universes, see Vaidman (1996). There is one way of proving that the MWI is true and the Copenhagen and other interpretations are wrong. Unfortunately, the experimenter can only prove it to himself, and never persuade anyone else of its validity.

    A pedagogic introduction of quantum theory is presented. It attempts to answer some of the nagging questions confronting students learning the theory for the first time, and explains the fundamentals of quantum theory from a perspective not commonly found in textbooks, with the intention of stimulating discussions in teaching quantum mechanics.
    I. INTRODUCTION
    When I first studied quantum mechanics, I was mystified by many of the highly specialized mathematical operations which I was instructed to follow. By the widest stretch of imagination I could not conceive how physicists like Schrodinger, Heisenberg, and Dirac could come up with ideas exemplified by relations bearing their names. It took me many years after my first course in quantum mechanics to be somewhat comfortable with its ideas. I would like to share my understanding of quantum theory, the logical path of development it follows, with all students of quantum mechanics for an exchange of views. Let me apologize that I shall not give historical references to the ideas discussed here since I have not done a complete study of the history of quantum theory. This is to avoid misrepresentations.

    Relational Quantum Mechanics
    Relational quantum mechanics is an interpretation of quantum theory which discards the notions of absolute state of a system, absolute value of its physical quantities, or absolute event. The theory describes only the way systems affect each other in the course of physical interactions. State and physical quantities refer always to the interaction, or the relation, between two systems. Nevertheless, the theory is assumed to be complete. The physical content of quantum theory is understood as expressing the net of relations connecting all different physical systems.
    1. Introduction
    Quantum theory is our current general theory of physical motion. The theory is the core component of the momentous change that our understanding of the physical world has undergone during the first decades of the 20th century. It is one of the most successful scientific theories ever: it is supported by vast and unquestionable empirical and technological effectiveness and is today virtually unchallenged. But the interpretation of what the theory actually tells us about the physical world raises a lively debate, which has continued with alternating fortunes, from the early days of the theory in the late twenties, to nowadays. The relational interpretations are a number of reflections by different authors, which were independently developed, but converge in indicating an interpretation of the physical content of the theory. The core idea is to read the theory as a theoretical account of the way distinct physical systems

    78. Dr. Mendel Sachs
    On compatibility of the quantum theory and theory of general relativity by Dr. Mendel Sachs
    http://www.compukol.com/mendel/
    The Future of Physics? My name is Mendel Sachs. My subject is theoretical physics. I have recently become aware of this excellent means of communicating ideas to my fellow physicists. I would like to ask your indulgence in some of my thoughts about physics today. I have discovered during my professional career that in order to increase our comprehension of the material world, it is necessary to ask significant questions and then try to answer them, as completely and rigorously as possible no matter how hard this may seem to be at the outset. A "significant question" to me is one whose answer could possibly increase our understanding. Of course, there is no guarantee at the outset that the question would turn out to be significant in the final analysis. On the other hand, it is often clear when a question (that a great deal of attention may be given to) is not significant! Let me start out, then, with some questions that I believe are significant, and then try to answer them, in my view. 1) What do we presently believe are the most fundamental assertions of the laws of nature? My answer is: The bases of the quantum theory and the theory of relativity. I am not referring here to mathematical expressions of these theories; I refer to the basic concepts that underlie these expressions. If you do not agree with this answer, or those to the questions below, please respond with your own views.

    The structure of our universe today is dependent upon the value of several universal constants which cannot be predicted from theory but must be observed. For example, according to Stephen Hawking, an eminent physicist, if the charge on the electron had been different from a -1 stars would either not have been able to "burn" hydrogen or they would not have been able to explode and scatter heavier elements back into space to eventually form planets. Under either of these circumstances life as we know of it would be difficult or impossible.
