Origin of the quantum operator formalism and its connection with linear response theory
Ana María Cetto, Luis de la Peña
Linear response theory is concerned with the way in which a physical system reacts to a small change in the applied forces. Here we show that quantum mechanics in the Heisenberg re…
Signature of matter-field coupling in quantum-mechanical statistics
Ana María Cetto, Luis de la Peña
The connection between the intrinsic angular momentum (spin) of particles and the quantum statistics is established by considering the response of identical particles to a common b…
The electromagnetic vacuum field as an essential ingredient of the quantum-mechanical ontology
Ana María Cetto, Luis de la Peña
Abstract This paper provides elements in support of the random zero-point radiation field (zpf) as an essential ontological ingredient needed to explain distinctive properties of q…
Completing the quantum ontology with the electromagnetic zero-point field
Luis de la Peña, Ana María Cetto
This text begins with a series of critical considerations on the initial interpretation of quantum phenomena observed in atomic systems. The bewildering explanations advanced durin…
Electron spin correlations: a geometric representation
Ana María Cetto
An analysis is made within the quantum formalism of the probabilistic features of the electron spin correlation, with the purpose of clarifying the concepts of contextuality and me…
Role of the electromagnetic vacuum in the transition from classical to quantum mechanics
Ana María Cetto, Luis de la Peña
We revisit the nonrelativistic problem of a bound, charged particle subject to the random zero-point radiation field (ZPF), with the purpose of revealing the mechanism that takes i…
