Is the electron stationary in the ground state of the Dirac hydrogen atom in Bohm's Theory?
B. J. Hiley
We show that, in the relativistic Bohm model of a Dirac-like particle, the electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom is moving, unlike the prediction for the case of a Schr…
Bohm's Quantum Potential as an Internal Energy
Glen Dennis, Maurice de Gosson, Basil Hiley
We pursue our discussion of Fermi's surface initiated in Dennis, de Gosson and Hiley and show that Bohm's quantum potential can be viewed as an internal energy of a quantum system.…
Quantum Processes and Energy-Momentum Flow
B. J. Hiley, D. Robson
In this paper we focus on energy flows in simple quantum systems. This is achieved by concentrating on the quantum Hamilton-Jacobi equation. We show how this equation appears in th…
Quantum Mechanics: Harbinger of a Non-Commutative Probability Theory?
Basil J. Hiley
In this paper we discuss the relevance of the algebraic approach to quantum phenomena first introduced by von Neumann before he confessed to Birkoff that he no longer believed in H…
Weak Measurement and its Experimental Realisation
R. Flack, B. J. Hiley
The relationship between the real part of the weak value of the momentum operator at a post selected position is discussed and the meaning of the experimentally determined stream-l…
Moyal's Characteristic Function, the Density Matrix and von Neumann's Idempotent
Basil J. Hiley
In the Wigner-Moyal approach to quantum mechanics, we show that Moyal's starting point, the characteristic function , is essen…
