Nonrelativistic Quantum Mechanics with Spin in the Framework of a Classical Subquantum Kinetics

Recently it has been shown that the spinless one-particle quantum mechanics can be obtained in the framework of entirely classical subquantum kinetics. In the present paper we argue that, within the same scheme and without any extra assumption, it is possible to obtain both the nonrelativistic quantum mechanics with spin, in the presence of an arbitrary external electromagnetic field, as well as the nonlinear quantum mechanics.     

Tunneling Radiation from a Static Spherically Symmetric Black Hole Surrounded by Quintessence

Einstein-Ehrenfest's radiation theory and Compton-Debye's kinematics

Einstein and Ehrenfest's radiation theory is modified in order to take into account the effects of the random zero-point fields, characteristic of classical stochastic electrodynamics, in a system of classical molecules interacting with thermal radiation. This is done by replacing the Einstein concept of random spontaneous emission by the concept of stimulated emission by the random zero-point fields. As a result, Compton and Debye's kinematic relations are obtained within the realm of a completely classical theory, that is, without having to consider the wave-particle duality for the molecules or the radiation.     

The Electromagnetic Vacuum Field as an Essential Hidden Ingredient of the Quantum-Mechanical Ontology

This paper provides elements in support of the random zero-point radiation field (zpf) as an essential ontological ingredient needed to explain distinctive properties of quantum-mechanical systems. We show that when an otherwise classical particle is connected to the zpf, a drastic, qualitative change in the dynamics takes place, leading eventually to the quantum dynamics. In particular, we demonstrate that in parallel with the evolution of the canonical variables of the particle into quantum operators satisfying the basic commutator , also the field canonical variables are transformed, giving rise to the corresponding creation and annihilation operators a^†,a^, satisfying . This allows for an explanation of quantum features such as quantum fluctuations, stationary states and transitions, and establishes a natural contact with (nonrelativistic) quantum electrodynamics.     

Quantum Tunneling of Massive Particles from a Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger Dilatonic Black Hole

Parikh-Wilczek Tunneling as Massive Particles from Noncommutative Schwarzschild Black Hole

In this paper, we apply the tunneling of massive particle through the quantum horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole in noncommutative spaeetime. The tunneling effects lead to modified Hawking radiation due to inclusion of back-reaction effects. Our calculations show also that noncommutativity effects cause the further modifications to the thermodynamical relations in black hole. We calculate the emission rate of the massive particles＇ tunneling from a Schwarzschild black hole which is modified on account of noncommutativity influences. The issues of information loss and possible correlations between emitted particles are discussed. Unfortunately even by considering noneommutativity view point, there is no correlation between different modes of evaporation at least at late-time. Nevertheless, as a result of spacetime noncommutativity, information may be conserved by a stable black hole remnant.

Hawking Tunneling Radiation of a Particle with Electric and Magnetic Charge from Kerr-Newman-Kasuya Black Hole

Extending the Parikh＇s quantum tunneling method of an uncharged particle, we investigate the quantum radiation characteristics of a particle with electric and magnetic charge via tunneling from the event horizon of the Kerr-Newman Kasuya black hole. The derived result supports the Parikh＇s opinion and the correction to the thermal spectrum is of precisely the form that satisfies the underlying unitary quantum theory, and finally provides a might explanation to the black hole information puzzle.     

Massive Radiation via Tunneling in a BTZ Black Hole

Hawking radiation can usefully be viewed as a semi-classical tunneling process that originates at the black hole horizon. Massive radiation from a BTZ black hole is investigated. The conservation of energy implies the effect of self-gravitation. Viewed as a tunneling process, the emission spectrum derivates from the pure thermal spectrum, but it is consistent with an underlying unitary theory. The result is the same as that of massless particles.     

Why Do the Quantum Observables Form a Jordan Operator Algebra?

The Jordan algebra structure of the bounded real quantum observables was recognized already in the early days of quantum mechanics. While there are plausible reasons for most parts of this structure, the existence of the distributive nonassociative multiplication operation is hard to justify from a physical or statistical point of view. Considering the non-Boolean extension of classical probabilities, presented in a recent paper, it is shown in this paper that such a multiplication operation can be derived from certain properties of the conditional probabilities and the observables, i.e., from postulates with a clear statistical interpretation. The well-known close relation between Jordan operator algebras and C*-algebras then provides the connection to the quantum-mechanical Hilbert space formalism, thus resulting in a novel axiomatic approach to general quantum mechanics that includes the types II and III von Neumann algebras.     

压缩真空中梯形三能级原子的辐射压力

研究了压缩真空中梯形三能级原子在单色行波场中的辐射压力。从系统的哈密顿量出发,利用玻因-马尔可夫近似,推导出了原子的光学布洛赫方程。此时用数值方法求得布洛赫方程的稳态解,然后用图示法考察了原子的辐射压力随双光子失谐、拉比频率、自发发射率等参量的依赖关系。结果表明：单光子跃迁和双光子跃迁可导致辐射压力出现各自的多普勒位移共振峰;辐射压力表现出较宽的失谐范围且强烈依赖于压缩参量以及压缩真空和相干光之间的相位关系。当相位满足匹配条件时,辐射压力减小。     

On the role of entanglement in Schrödinger’s cat paradox

In this paper we re-investigate the core of Schrödinger’s “cat paradox”. We argue that one has to distinguish clearly between superpositions of macroscopic cat states |?〉 + |?〉 and superpositions of entangled states |?, ↑〉 + |?, ↓〉 which comprise both the state of the cat (?=alive, ?=dead) and the radioactive substance (↑=not decayed, ↓=decayed). It is shown, that in the case of the cat experiment recourse to decoherence or other mechanisms is not necessary in order to explain the absence of macroscopic superpositions. Additionally, we present modified versions of two quantum optical experiments as experimenta crucis. Applied rigorously, quantum mechanical formalism reduces the problem to a mere pseudo-paradox.     

Where and why the generalized Hamilton-Jacobi representation describes microstates of the Schrödinger wave function

A generalized Hamilton-Jacobi representation describes microstates of the Schrödinger wave function for bound states. At the very points that boundary values are applied to the bound state Schrödinger wave function, the generalized Hamilton-Jacobi equation for quantum mechanics exhibits a nodal singularity. For initial value problems, the two representations are equivalent.     

Excitonic Effect on the Electron Tunneling Through a Quant urn Well

We proposed a simplified model to describe the excitonic effect on electron tunneling through a quantum well (QW). Using nonequilibrium-Green-function method self consistently, we calculated the dc current of electron tunneling through QW. The extra plateau in the J-V characteristics appears dearly, which shows the existence of exciton in QW. This result is in good agreement with the experiment qualitatively. We also studied the density of electrons and holes in the quantum well.     

Evolution of Classical and Quantum States in the Groupoid Picture of Quantum Mechanics

The evolution of states of the composition of classical and quantum systems in the groupoid formalism for physical theories introduced recently is discussed. It is shown that the notion of a classical system, in the sense of Birkhoff and von Neumann, is equivalent, in the case of systems with a countable number of outputs, to a totally disconnected groupoid with Abelian von Neumann algebra. The impossibility of evolving a separable state of a composite system made up of a classical and a quantum one into an entangled state by means of a unitary evolution is proven in accordance with Raggio’s theorem, which is extended to include a new family of separable states corresponding to the composition of a system with a totally disconnected space of outcomes and a quantum one.     

Characteristics of Quantum Radiation as Tunneling from a Cylindrically Symmetric Black Hole

Applying the semi-classical quantum tunneling model, we have studied the Hawking radiation via tunneling from a cylindrically symmetric black hole. The derived results show that the tunneling rate of at the event horizon of the black hole is related to Bekenstein–Hawking entropy and the factual radiation spectrum is not strictly pure thermal, but is consistent with the underlying unitary theory.

Contextuality in Classical Physics and Its Impact on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics

It is shown that the hallmark quantum phenomenon of contextuality is present in classical statistical mechanics (CSM). It is first shown that the occurrence of contextuality is equivalent to there being observables that can differentiate between pure and mixed states. CSM is formulated in the formalism of quantum mechanics (FQM), a formulation commonly known as the Koopman–von Neumann formulation (KvN). In KvN, one can then show that such a differentiation between mixed and pure states is possible. As contextuality is a probabilistic phenomenon and as it is exhibited in both classical physics and ordinary quantum mechanics (OQM), it is concluded that the foundational issues regarding quantum mechanics are really issues regarding the foundations of probability.
