Abstract

The quantum coherence as a phase property of the most fundamental quantum mechanical entity, the wave function, is explained for the first time. Phase-sensitive nonadiabatic dressed states, arising from the interaction of a quantum system and a coherent external electromagnetic field, are used in these considerations. Two types of phase correlations in the multilevel phase-sensitive nonadiabatic dressed states are found: a rapidly changing phase correlation between the real and the virtual components and a stationary phase correlation between different virtual components of these states.

The Quantum Coherence in Terms of Phase-Sensitive Nonadiabatic Dressed States

Ivan Georgiev Koprinkov

The quantum coherence is considered within phase-sensitive nonadiabatic dressed states. Two types of phase correlations are found: a rapidly changing phase correlation between the real and the virtual components and a stationary phase correlation between different virtual components of these states.

Coherence Field Theory: Quantum Coherence as the Basis for a Model of Brain Function

Eric Bond

A general definition of quantum coherence is developed from analysis of superposition, entanglement, chemical bonding behavior, and basic phenomena of classical mechanics. Various properties of atoms can be better explained if these particles are matter waves that embody a spectrum ranging from relatively coherent to decoherent states. It is demonstrated that quantum coherence so defined can comprehensively explain signal transmission in neurons and dynamics of the brain’s emergent electric field, including potential support for the claim that conscious volition is to some degree real rather than an illusion. Recent research in a physiological context suggests that electromagnetic radiation interacts with molecular structure to comprise integrated energy fields. A mechanism is proposed by which quantum coherence as accelerating electric currents in neurons may result in a broadened spectrum of electromagnetic radiation capable of interacting with molecular complexes in the brain and perhaps elsewhere in an organism to influence vibrational and structural properties. Research should investigate whether a consequent energy field is the basic perceptual substrate, with at least some additive electromagnetic wavelengths of this field involved in generating image percepts insofar as they arise from the body, and electromagnetic vibrations the signature of a more diverse phenomenon by which somewhat nondimensional features of perception such as sound, touch, taste, smell, interoceptive sensations, etc. partially arise. If examination of the brain reveals this organ to be composed of a coherence field, structured at least in part by broadened spectrums of EM radiation interacting with molecular components, this has major implications for furthering our model of the matter/mind interface and possibly physical reality in total.

Theory of Quantum Transitions Based on Non-adiabatic Dressed States

Ivan Georgiev Koprinkov, Michail D. Todorov, Christo I. Christov

Nonadiabatic dressed states of a quantum system interacting with an external electromagnetic field and the environment are presented. The electromagnetic field is described in terms of carrier‐envelope concept. The amplitude and phase of the field are arbitrary functions of time, subject to a generalized adiabatic condition. The interaction with the environment is described my means of a dumping term in the Hamiltonian. The field time derivatives and the dumping play role of nonadiabatic factors. The main matrix elements within the nonadiabatic dressed states are found. A theory of quantum transitions based on the nonadiabatic dressed states is proposed for the first time.

First Order Coherence of an Electromagnetic Wave: From Classical Theory to Quantum States

Vandana Arora, Jagneet Kaur Anand

In this article, the physical significance of the 1st order coherence in respect of the classical and quantum world is discussed with due example of Young’s double slit experiment. Mathematical equations governing these phenomenon are established. The corresponding correlation functions in the classical and quantum analogue are discussed

A phase in a coherent-state wavefunction - is it always irrelevant?

Waldemar Berej, P. Rozmej

When the time evolution of the coherent-state wavefunction is considered and the properties of the coherent states are exploited, one should take into account the properly defined phase factor. After discussing this point, we derive the expression for the required phase and correct some errors occurring in the literature.
