New physics and quanta. Second Edition

Louis de Broglie

Sibel Başkal, Young S Kim, Marilyn E. Noz

This book explains the Lorentz mathematical group in a language familiar to physicists. This new edition extends applications to optical sciences and includes five new chapters on applications in statistical physics, condensed matter physics. quantum optics and quantum information and artificial intelligence.

This paper serves as an orientation document for the book Logica Quanta – The Evasive Logic of Quantum Physics. It clarifies the purpose, scope, and methodological stance of the work before readers engage with the full text. Rather than advancing a new interpretation through rhetorical argument, Logica Quanta adopts a constraint-based approach to quantum measurement. It treats the existence of single, definite outcomes as a hard empirical boundary and maps the minimal logical branches compatible with that constraint. The book is written as an archive: recording experiments, logical consequences, and theoretical costs without appealing to persuasion. This Zenodo record does not summarize results or extend the technical trilogy of Logica Quanta papers. Instead, it establishes the book’s posture — what it attempts to do, what it refuses to do, and how it should be read. The objective is clarity rather than consensus.

Abstract Quanta provides a non-mathematical and highly visual account of the concepts of quantum mechanics widely encountered in chemistry and related disciplines. Entries - ordered alphabetically - range in length from one paragraph to several pages, and describe the physical significance of each topic with simplicity and precision. Each entry is extensively cross-referenced and ends with a guide to sources of further information. This exciting new work continues the tradition of the first edition, which quickly established itself among students and teachers as a rich source of clear, concise explanations of quantum concepts. The text has been completely rewritten: all topics have been brought up to date, and there are many more illustrations and numerous new entries. The book will be invaluable to students for its brief non-mathematical summaries of key concepts, to instructors as a source of explanations, illustrations, and references, and to all practising scientists searching for an interesting, accessible account of any aspect of quantum chemistry.
