Quantum Theory and the Nature of Interference

نویسنده

  • R. D. PROSSER
چکیده

It is shown that many of the difficulties associated with the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory are resolved by a new interpretation of interference derived from solutions to Maxwell's equations. An infinite wave model of the photon based on these solutions is described and used to explain the interference of single photons as well as the corpuscular behavior evident in the Compton and photoelectric effects. The waveparticle duality and the uncertainty relations are also discussed. According to the new interpretation of interference in a Young's double-slit experiment, photons which pass through the left-hand slit always arrive in the left-hand part of the screen and no photons pass into this area via the right-hand slit. This conclusion is compared with the viewpoint of the Copenhagen school and an experiment to distinguish between them is suggested.

Coherent 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...
