Protective Measurement and Quantum Reality : Towards a New Understanding of Quantum Mechanics PDF
Edited by Shan Gao
- Information
Description
Protective measurements offer an intriguing method for measuring the wave function of a single quantum system.
With contributions from leading physicists and philosophers of physics - including two of the original discoverers of this important method - this book explores the concept of protective measurement, investigating its broad applications and deep implications.
Addressing both physical and philosophical aspects, it covers a diverse range of topics, including experimental possibility of protective measurements, connections with the PBR theorem, and the implications of protective measurements for understanding the nature of quantum reality.
Including a clear and concise introduction to standard quantum mechanics, conventional measurements, and the fundamentals of protective measurements, this is a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers interested in the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics.
