Reconsidering the relation between "matter wave interference" and "wave-particle duality"
Lukas Mairhofer, Oliver Passon
Interference of more and more massive objects provides a spectacular confirmation of quantum theory. It is usually regarded as support for "wave-particle duality" and in an extensi…
Kelvin's clouds
Oliver Passon
In 1900 Lord Kelvin identified two problems for 19th century physics, two "clouds" as he puts it: the relative motion of the ether with respect to massive objects, and Maxwell-Bolt…
What does a 4.2 discrepancy mean? A brief remark on the statistics of the Muon g-2 Experiment
Oliver Passon
On April 7, 2001 the Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermilab presented its first results which lead to a 4.2 discrepancy between the world average of the muon anomalous magnetic dipole…
On the interpretation of Feynman diagrams, or, did the LHC experiments observe ?
Oliver Passon
According to the received view Feynman diagrams are a bookkeeping device in complex perturbative calculations. Thus, they do not provide a representation or model of the underlying…
Pitfalls in the teaching of elementary particle physics
Oliber Passon, Thomas Zügge, Johannes Grebe-Ellis
Elementary particle physics is gradually implemented into science curricula at high school level. However, common presentations on educational, semi-technical or popular level cont…
Planck's radiation law, the light quantum, and the prehistory of indistinguishability in the teaching of quantum mechanics
Oliver Passon, Johannes Grebe-Ellis
Planck's law for black-body radiation marks the origin of quantum theory and is discussed in all introductory (or advanced) courses on this subject. However, the question whether P…
