The issues that have been raised throughout the history of quantum chemistry played a prominent role in philosophical elaborations and discussions of reductionism, scientific realism, the role of theory, including its descriptive or predictive character, the role of pictorial representations and of mathematics, the role of semiempirical versus ab initio approaches, and the status of ...
Abstract Much attention has been directed to the philosophical implications of quantum field theory (QFT) in recent years; this paper attempts a survey in low-technical terms. First the relations of QFT to other kinds of theory, classical and quantum, particle and field, are discussed. Then various formulations of QFT are introduced, along with related interpretations. Finally a review is made ...
23. Okt. 2021 · The Quantum Revolution in Philosophy (Book Review) Eddy Keming Chen. In this thought-provoking book, Richard Healey proposes a new interpretation of quantum theory inspired by pragmatist philosophy. Healey puts forward the interpretation as an alternative to realist quantum theories on the one hand such as Bohmian mechanics, spontaneous ...
30. Nov. 2004 · Quantum Approaches to Consciousness. It is widely accepted that consciousness or, more generally, mental activity is in some way correlated to the behavior of the material brain. Since quantum theory is the most fundamental theory of matter that is currently available, it is a legitimate question to ask whether quantum theory can help us to ...
27. Juni 2024 · Book description. This text presents an intuitive and robust mathematical image of fundamental particle physics based on a novel approach to quantum field theory, which is guided by four carefully motivated metaphysical postulates. In particular, the book explores a dissipative approach to quantum field theory, which is illustrated for scalar ...
