Spin-statistics connection and commutation relations : experimental tests and theoretical implications, Anacapri, Capri Island, Italy 31 May-3 June 2000

Abstract

The conference focused on the issues of the behavior of systems of identical particles in quantum mechanics. These questions are important in all areas of physics, in much of chemistry (via the Pauli Exclusion Principle) and mathematics, and in the philosophy of science. The conference brought together experimentalists, theorists, and philosophers to survey work done during the past ten years that challenges the traditional view of these issues. Several papers explore connections with rapidly developing fields such as fundamental symmetries, supersymmetry, quantum gravity, and quantum computation.

This conference brought together experts in different fields related to the foundations of quantum mechanics, ranging from mathematical physics to experimental physics, as well as the philosophy of science. The major topics discussed are: collapse models, Bohemian mechanics and their relativistic extensions, other alternative formulation of quantum mechanics, properties of entanglement, statistical physics and probability theory, new experimental results, as well as philosophical and epistemological issues.

Quantum theory : reconsideration of foundations - 3, Växjö, Sweden, 6-11 June 2005

Guillaume Adenier, Andrei Yu. Khrennikov, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen

This Vaxjo conference was devoted to the reconsideration of quantum foundations. Due to increasing research in quantum information theory, especially on quantum computing and cryptography, many questions regarding the foundations of quantum mechanics, which have long been considered to be exclusively of philosophical interest, nowadays play an important role in theoretical and experimental quantum physics.

The foundations of quantum mechanics has acquired tremendous importance in recent years for three reasons: First, a large number of experiments have tested concepts which previously were purely theoretical. Second, ideas from the foundations of quantum mechanics are being applied now to many fields such as condensed matter physics, quantum statistics, quantum cosmology and quantum gravity. Third, difficulties in constructing a quantum cosmology and theory of gravity have made many theorists examine the foundations of quantum theory to see if quantum mechanics itself needs to be modified. Very distinguished physicists from around the world gave talks on their recent research on a variety of theoretical and experimental aspects on these subjects at this conference.

The Pauli Exclusion Principle: Origin, Verifications, and Applications

Ilya G. Kaplan

This is the first scientific book devoted to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, which is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics and is permanently applied in chemistry, physics, molecular biology and in physical astronomy. However, while the principle has been studied for more than 90 years, rigorous theoretical foundations still have not been established and many unsolved problems remain. Following an introduction and historical survey, this book discusses the still unresolved questions around this fundamental principle. For instance, why, according to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, are only symmetric and antisymmetric permutation symmetries for identical particles realized, while the Schrödinger equation is satisfied by functions with any permutation symmetry? Chapter 3 covers possible answers to this, while chapter 4 presents effective and elegant methods for finding the Pauli-allowed states in atomic, molecular and nuclear spectroscopy. Chapter 5 discusses parastatistics and fractional statistics, demonstrating that the quasiparticles in a periodical lattice, including excitons and magnons, are obeying modified parafermi statistics. With detailed appendices, The Pauli Exclusion Principle: Origin, Verifications and Applications is intended as a self-sufficient guide for graduate students and academic researchers in the fields of quantum mechanics, theoretical chemistry, physics, and applied mathematics. It will be a valuable resource for any reader interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics and its applications in areas such as atomic and molecular spectroscopy, spintronics, molecular biology, and applied fields of quantum information.

The advent of new experimental techniques has made possible a new generation of more precise experimental tests of fundamental quantum mechanics. This workshop addressed the confrontation of new and proposed experimental tests of quantum mechanics with standard and nonstandard quantum theory. The broad, cross-disciplinary view of the subject brought together eminent theorists and experimentalists from diverse fields
