Symposium on the Foundations of Modern Physics 1993 : Quantum Measurement, Irreversibility and the Physics of Information : Cologne, Germany, 1-5 June 1993

Paul Busch, PEKKA J. LAHTI, Peter Mittelstaedt

This volume offers discussions on foundational problems of quantum mechanics and other fundamental physical theories, taking into account new experimental developments. The surveying of the progress with respect to fundamental questions of the quantum theory of measurement forms the guiding line of thought of this Symposium, the main themes of discussion being: the inter-relation of quantum measurement and irreversability; the physics of information (concerned with questions of information processing and quantum noise); quantum interference and mesoscopic quantum effects (searching for the micro-macro borderline); and the quantum-classical relationship (the need for classical pointer and their realization).

A centennial reappraisal of Heisenberg’s Quantum Mechanics with a perspective on Einstein’s Quantum Riddle.

T. C. Choy

Heisenberg's breakthrough in his July 1925 paper that set in motion the development of Quantum Mechanics through subsequent papers by Born, Jordan, Heisenberg and also Dirac (from 1925 to 1927) is reexamined through a modern lens. In this paper, we shall discuss some new perspectives on (i) what could be the guiding intuitions for his discoveries and (ii) the origin of the Born-Jordan-Heisenberg canonical quantization rule. From this vantage point we may get an insight into Einstein's Quantum Riddle (Lande1974,Sommerfeld1918,Born1926) and a possible glimpse of what might come next after the last 100 years of Heisenberg's quantum mechanics.

The Birth of Quantum Mechanics and the Dirac Equation

Volodimir Simulik, Denys I. Bondar

The year 2025 marked the centennial of quantum mechanics, inaugurated by Heisenberg's matrix formulation and the foundational contributions of Pauli, Schrodinger, and Dirac. Concurrently, 2026 marks the centennial of the Klein - Gordon equation, the second-order relativistic wave equation from which both the Schrodinger and Dirac equations were derived. This article supplements the recent review published in J.Phys. A: Math.Theor.,58 (2025) 053001 by providing a more detailed examination of the formative period 1925 - 1928, with particular attention to contributions that have received insufficient recognition in the standard narrative. We reconstruct Kramers' independent derivation of the Dirac equation - obtained essentially simultaneously with Dirac's own result yet unpublished for seven years - and discuss its relation to Van der Waerden's group-theoretical approach. The role of Charles Galton Darwin in elucidating the physical content of the Dirac equation is also highlighted. In addition, we present two modern derivations not catalogued in the earlier review: one based on Operational Dynamical Modeling, which deduces the Dirac equation from relativistic Ehrenfest relations and the canonical commutation algebra, and one rooted in the Madelung hydrodynamic formulation. Three broad periods of quantum theory development -- foundational, consolidation, and the modern era of quantum information -- are briefly surveyed.
