Are All Particles Real?
Sheldon Goldstein, James Taylor, Roderich Tumulka +1
In Bohmian mechanics elementary particles exist objectively, as point particles moving according to a law determined by a wavefunction. In this context, questions as to whether the…
On the Role of Density Matrices in Bohmian Mechanics
Detlef Duerr, Sheldon Goldstein, Roderich Tumulka +1
It is well known that density matrices can be used in quantum mechanics to represent the information available to an observer about either a system with a random wave function (``s…
Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory
Detlef Duerr, Sheldon Goldstein, Roderich Tumulka +1
We discuss a recently proposed extension of Bohmian mechanics to quantum field theory. For more or less any regularized quantum field theory there is a corresponding theory of part…
Quantum Hamiltonians and Stochastic Jumps
Detlef Duerr, Sheldon Goldstein, Roderich Tumulka +1
With many Hamiltonians one can naturally associate a |Psi|^2-distributed Markov process. For nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, this process is in fact deterministic, and is known…
Boltzmann's Approach to Statistical Mechanics
Sheldon Goldstein
In the last quarter of the nineteenth century, Ludwig Boltzmann explained how irreversible macroscopic laws, in particular the second law of thermodynamics, originate in the time-r…
Revised Proof of the Uniqueness Theorem for 'No Collapse' Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics
Jeffrey Bub, Rob Clifton, Sheldon Goldstein
We show that the Bub-Clifton uniqueness theorem for 'no collapse' interpretations of quantum mechanics (Studies in the History and Philosophy of Modern Physics 27, 181-219 (1996))…
