The zero-point energy of elementary quantum fields
Gerold Gründler
Since 1925, exactly four arguments have been forwarded for the assumption of a diverging (respectively --- after regularization --- very huge) zero-point energy of elementary quant…
What exactly is proved by the violation of Bell's inequality?
Gerold Gründler
Bell's inequality has been derived several times from quite different basic assumptions, which imply different conclusions. This resulted into widespread confusion regarding the ex…
QBism, Quantum Nonlocality, and the Objective Paradox
Gerold Gründler
The Quantum-Bayesian interpretation of quantum theory claims to eliminate the question of quantum nonlocality. This claim is not justified, because the question of non-locality doe…
Electrical charges in gravitational fields, and Einstein's equivalence principle
Gerold Gründler
According to Larmor's formula, accelerated electric charges radiate electromagnetic waves. Hence charges should radiate, if they are in free fall in gravitational fields, and they…
Canonical quantization of elementary fields
Gerold Gründler
An inconsistency of quantum field theory, regarding the signs of vacuum energy and vacuum pressure of elementary fields versus non-elementary fields (like e.g. phonon fields), is p…
Remarks on Wheeler-Feynman absorber theory
Gerold Gründler
The derivation of absorber theory is outlined in very detail. Absorber theory is based on classical action-at-a-distance electrodynamics, but it deviates from that theory at a cruc…
The Casimir-Effect: No Manifestation of Zero-Point Energy
Gerold Gründler
The attractive force between metallic surfaces, predicted by Casimir in 1948, seems to indicate the physical existence and measurability of the quantized electromagnetic field's ze…
