Abstract

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

Santa Fe Workshop on Foundations of Quantum Mechanics Held in Santa Fe, New Mexico on May 27-31, 1991

It is a surprise that a theory that seems to be in conflict with so much of the real world continues to serve as the underpinning for our understanding of that world. Quantum Mechanics has been with us in its present form since the mid-1920's, and still serves as one of the two basic frameworks on which all meaningful physical theories must rest. The question persists: Can quantum mechanics fail to predict phenomena we can observe with new precision, or does it possibly have limits on its applicability? Or is it an approximation to a more general theory? With the recent advances in experimental techniques and in theoretical thinking, it seemed appropriate to examine these questions anew through the mechanism of an informal conference. The idea for holding a workshop now came from the recent advances in both theoretical studies of quantum mechanics, and in the new classes of experiments that can provide new tests or improve significantly on old ones. The papers in these Proceedings are divided between theoretical studies and discussions of experiments. Most of the theoretical work describes the quantum mechanical analysis of new systems not hitherto analyzed. Half (or more) of the experimental papers describe new tests of the predictions of quantum theory, either by employing new precision on existing experiments or by exploring new ground.

Quantum Information Science and Technology for Nuclear Physics. Input into U.S. Long-Range Planning, 2023

In preparation for the 2023 NSAC Long Range Plan (LRP), members of the Nuclear Science community gathered to discuss the current state of, and plans for further leveraging opportunities in, QIST in NP research at the Quantum Information Science for U.S. Nuclear Physics Long Range Planning workshop, held in Santa Fe, New Mexico on January 31 - February 1, 2023. The workshop included 45 in-person participants and 53 remote attendees. The outcome of the workshop identified strategic plans and requirements for the next 5-10 years to advance quantum sensing and quantum simulations within NP, and to develop a diverse quantum-ready workforce. The plans include resolutions endorsed by the participants to address the compelling scientific opportunities at the intersections of NP and QIST. These endorsements are aligned with similar affirmations by the LRP Computational Nuclear Physics and AI/ML Workshop, the Nuclear Structure, Reactions, and Astrophysics LRP Town Hall, and the Fundamental Symmetries, Neutrons, and Neutrinos LRP Town Hall communities.

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.
