Towards a fully consistent relativistic quantum mechanics and a change of perspective on quantum gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper can be seen as an exercise in how to adapt quantum mechanics from a strict relativistic perspective while being respectful and critical towards the experimental achievements of the contemporary theory. The result is a fully observer independent relativistic quantum mechanics for N particle systems without tachyonic solutions. A remaining worry for the moment is Bell’s theorem.

Although charged leptons, contrary to neutrinos, cannot oscillate, exploring whether a coherent superposition of charged lepton states can change to others during the propagation is an important problem in the neutrino oscillation theory. In this paper, we consider electrons and muons coming from the pions and W decays and study their propagation in relativistic Bohmian quantum mechanics. We f...
متن کاملSpacetime geometric structures and the Search for a Quantum Theory of Gravity
One of the biggest challenges to theoretical physics of our time is to find a background-independent quantum theory of gravity. Today one encounters a profusion of different attempts at quantization, but no fully accepted or acceptable, theory of quantum gravity. Any such approach requires a response to a question that lies at the heart of this problem. “How shall we resolve the tension between...
متن کاملInformation-Based Physics and the Influence Network
I know about the universe because it influences me. Light excites the photoreceptors in my eyes, surfaces apply pressure to my touch receptors and my eardrums are buffeted by relentless waves of air molecules. My entire sensorium is excited by all that surrounds me. These experiences are all I have ever known, and for this reason, they comprise my reality. This essay considers a simple model of...
متن کاملQuantum Gravity Corrections to Particle Interactions
An heuristic semiclassical procedure that incorporates quantum gravity induced corrections in the description of photons and spin 1/2 fermions is reviewed. Such modifications are calculated in the framework of loop quantum gravity and they arise from the granular structure of space at short distances. The resulting effective theories are described by power counting non-renormalizable actions wh...
