Quantum Relativity (eBook, PDF)

A Synthesis of the Ideas of Einstein and Heisenberg

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

To avoid paradoxical interpretations of quantum physics which have their origin in the use of natural language the author develops, starting from John von Neumann's fundamental papers, a quantum language based on algebraic concepts. It starts from observations and is therefore well- suited for providing a better understanding of the foundations of quantum physics. The work is organized didactically and can be read by both physicists and philosophers of science.
