Bound State Internal Interactions as a Mechanism for Exponential Decay

Peter W. Bryant

We hypothesize that the binding interactions among the components of bound systems and the background fields, sometimes known as virtual particle exchange, affect the state of the…

Exponential Decay and Fermi's Golden Rule from an Uncontrolled Quantum Zeno Effect

P. W. Bryant

We modify the theory of the Quantum Zeno Effect to make it consistent with the postulates of quantum mechanics. This modification allows one, throughout a sequence of observations…

Kinematic Effect of Indistinguishability and Its Application to Open Quantum Systems

P. W. Bryant

In quantum mechanics, useful experiments require multiple measurements performed on the identically prepared physical objects composing experimental ensembles. Experimental systems…

From Hardy Spaces to Quantum Jumps: A Quantum Mechanical Beginning of Time

Arno Bohm, Peter W. Bryant

In quantum mechanical experiments one distinguishes between the state of an experimental system and an observable measured in it. Heuristically, the distinction between states and…

Quantum decoherence without reduced dynamics

P. W. Bryant

With a choice of boundary conditions for solutions of the Schrödinger equation, state vectors and density operators even for closed systems evolve asymmetrically in time. For open…

Quantum Dynamics With Intrinsic Time Asymmetry and Indistinguishable Events

P. W. Bryant

The extrinsic quantum mechanical arrow of time is understood to be a consequence of the interaction between quantum systems and their environment. A choice of boundary conditions f…
