On the physical origin of the quantum operator formalism
Ana María Cetto, Luis de la Peña, Andrea Valdés-Hernández
We offer a clear physical explanation for the emergence of the quantum operator formalism, by revisiting the role of the vacuum field in quantum mechanics. The vacuum or random zer…
Relevance of stochasticity for the emergence of quantization
A. M. Cetto, L. de la Peña, A. Valdés-Hernández
The theories of stochastic quantum mechanics and stochastic electrodynamics bring to light important aspects of the quantum dynamics that are concealed in the standard formalism. H…
How fast is a quantum jump?
Luis de la Peña, Ana María Cetto, Andrea Valdés-Hernández
A proposal is put forward for an estimate of the duration of a transition between atomic states. The proposal rests on the consideration that a resonance of the atomic electron wit…
Connecting two stochastic theories that lead to quantum mechanics
Luis de la Peña, Ana María Cetto, Andrea Valdés-Hernández
The connection is established between two theories that have developed independently with the aim to describe quantum mechanics as a stochastic process, namely stochastic quantum m…
