Max Born's Statistical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics.
نویسنده
چکیده
In the summer of 1926, a statistical element was introduced for the first time in the fundamental laws of physics in two papers by Born. After a brief account of Born's earlier involvements with quantum physics, including his bringing the new mechanics to the United States, the motivation for and contents of Born's two papers are discussed. The reaction of his colleagues is described.

The Role of Decoherence in the Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
The Copenhagen interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics formulated mainly by Niels Bohr and also Werner Heisenberg while collaborating in Copenhagen. According to a poll in 1997, the Copenhagen interpretation is the most widely-accepted interpretation of quantum mechanics [1] and it was the first general attempt to understand the world of atoms. Since Copenhagen Interpretation w...
متن کاملRuling out multi-order interference in quantum mechanics.
Quantum mechanics and gravitation are two pillars of modern physics. Despite their success in describing the physical world around us, they seem to be incompatible theories. There are suggestions that one of these theories must be generalized to achieve unification. For example, Born's rule--one of the axioms of quantum mechanics--could be violated. Born's rule predicts that quantum interferenc...

We discuss a connection (and a proper place in this framework) of the un-forced and deterministically forced Burgers equation for local velocity fields of certain flows, with probabilistic solutions of the so-called Schrödinger interpolation problem. The latter allows to reconstruct the microscopic dynamics of the system from the available probability density data, or the input-output statistic...
متن کاملEnvironment-assisted invariance, entanglement, and probabilities in quantum physics.
I introduce environment-assisted invariance or envariance-a symmetry exhibited by correlated quantum systems and related to causality-and describe how it can be used to understand the nature of ignorance and, hence, the origin and interpretation of Born's rule for quantum probabilities.
متن کاملRecovering the quantum formalism from physically realist axioms
We present a heuristic derivation of Born's rule and unitary transforms in Quantum Mechanics, from a simple set of axioms built upon a physical phenomenology of quantization. This approach naturally leads to the usual quantum formalism, within a new realistic conceptual framework that is discussed in details. Physically, the structure of Quantum Mechanics appears as a result of the interplay be...
