Using simple elastic bands to explain quantum mechanics: a conceptual review of two of Aert's machine-models
Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi
From the beginning of his research, the Belgian physicist Diederik Aerts has shown great creativity in inventing a number of concrete machine-models that have played an important r…

Comment on "The quantum mechanics of electric conduction in crystals," by R. J. Olsen and G. Vignale [Am. J. Phys. 78 (9), 954-960 (2010)]
Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi
In this note we use the notion of time-delay to explain the physical content of the transformation properties of transmission and reflection amplitudes, as a result of a displaceme…

The delta-quantum machine, the k-model, and the non-ordinary spatiality of quantum entities
Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi
The purpose of this article is threefold. Firstly, it aims to present, in an educational and non-technical fashion, the main ideas at the basis of Aerts' creation-discovery view an…
