Скачать или смотреть Jürg Fröhlich: Quantum Mechanics as a Complete Theory (March 8, 2023)

I present a proposal of how to complete Quantum Mechanics (QM) to a theory that actually makes sense. The proposal is called ETH - Approach to QM; “E ” standing for Events, “T ” for Trees, and “H ” for Histories. This approach supplies the last one of three pillars QM can be constructed upon, which are:

(i) physical quantities characteristic of a system are represented by selfadjoint operators. Their time evolution is given by the Heisenberg equations;
(ii) introduce meaningful notions of states and of potential and actual events;
(iii) find a general Law for the non-linear stochastic time evolution of states of individual systems.

After explaining some general ideas underlying the ETH-Approach I discuss an application to the quantum theory of fluorescence of an atom coupled to the radiation field. My general goal is to help removing some of the enormous confusion befuddling many people who claim to work on the foundations of QM.
