Wave energy in quantum mechanics

Alexander Franklin Mayer

Setting out from accepted physical principles along a purely mathematical line of thought, new ideas about energy are introduced having profound theoretical and practical consequences. Einstein's 1905 mass energy equivalence equation is shown to have an expanded phasor form that reveals additional subtle aspects of the relationships between energy, mass and momentum. These insights lead to compelling new ideas concerning the nature of quantum mechanical phenomena.

The PBR theorem seen from the eyes of a Bohmian

Aurélien Drezet

The aim of this paper is to present an analysis of the new theorem by Pusey, Barrett and Rudolph (PBR) concerning ontic and epistemic hidden variables in quantum mechanics [Nature Phys. 8, 476 (2012)]. This is a kind of review and defense of my previous critical analysis done in the context of Bohmian mechanics. This is also the occasion for me to review some of the fundamental aspects of Bohmian theory rarely discussed in the literature. The paper is submitted for the issue PBR theorem and Beyond of IJQF (International Journal of Quantum Foundations).

Time Reversal Invariance in Quantum Mechanics

Reza Moulavi Ardakani

Symmetries have a crucial role in today's physics. In this thesis, we are mostly concerned with time reversal invariance (T-symmetry). A physical system is time reversal invariant if its underlying laws are not sensitive to the direction of time. There are various accounts of time reversal transformation resulting in different views on whether or not a given theory in physics is time reversal invariant. With a focus on quantum mechanics, I describe the standard account of time reversal and compare it with my alternative account, arguing why it deserves serious attention. Then, I review three known ways to T-violation in quantum mechanics, and explain two unique experiments made to detect it in the neutral K and B mesons.
