Nonclassical Total Probability Formula and Quantum Interference of Probabilities
Interpretation of the nonclassical total probability formula arising in some quantum experiments is provided based on stochastic models described by means of a sequence of random vectors changing in the measurement procedures.
متن کاملQuantum interference experiments with large molecules
Wave–particle duality is frequently the first topic students encounter in elementary quantum physics. Although this phenomenon has been demonstrated with photons, electrons, neutrons, and atoms, the dual quantum character of the famous double-slit experiment can be best explained with the largest and most classical objects, which are currently the fullerene molecules. The soccer-ball-shaped car...
متن کاملCoherent Control of Quantum Entropy via Quantum Interference in a Four-Level Atomic System
The time evaluation of quantum entropy in a four-level double- type atomic system is theoretically investigated. Quantum entanglement of the atom and its spontaneous emission fields is then discussed via quantum entropy. It is found that the degree of entanglement can be increased by the quantum interference induced by spontaneous emission. The phase dependence of the atom-field entanglement is...
متن کاملQuantum Logic and Nonclassical Logics
Classical logic is sometimes described as “the logic of an omniscient mind in a deterministic universe”. From an intuitive point of view the basic features of classical semantics can be summarized as follows: 1) any problem is semantically decided : for any sentence α, either α or its negation ¬α is true (excluded middle principle); at the same time, a sentence α and its negation ¬α cannot be b...
متن کاملInterference with correlated photons: Five quantum mechanics experiments for undergraduates
We describe five quantum mechanics experiments that have been designed for an undergraduate setting. The experiments use correlated photons produced by parametric down conversion to generate interference patterns in interferometers. The photons are counted individually. The experimental results illustrate the consequences of multiple paths, indistinguishability, and entanglement. We analyze the...
