The transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics

JG Cramer - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1986 - APS
The interpretational problems of quantum mechanics are considered. The way in which the
standard Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics deals with these problems is …

Photon interference and correlation effects produced by independent quantum sources

L Mandel - Physical Review A, 1983 - APS
Interference effects produced by independent quantum sources are investigated, when the
state of the field is not describable as a simple mixture of coherent states. The results of …

On the existence of empty waves in quantum theory

L Hardy - Physics Letters A, 1992 - Elsevier
By extending a Gedankenexperiment due to Elitzur and Vaidman and making some very
natural assumptions, we demonstrate that empty waves can manifest their reality in quantum …

Dirac's aether in relativistic quantum mechanics

NC Petroni, JP Vigier - Foundations of Physics, 1983 - Springer
The introduction by Dirac of a new aether model based on a stochastic covariant distribution
of subquantum motions (corresponding to a “vacuum state” alive with fluctuations and …

New experimental set-up for the detection of de Broglie waves

A Garuccio, V Rapisarda, JP Vigier - Physics Letters A, 1982 - Elsevier
We present a new experimental set-up to detect the existence of de Broglie waves. Since it
uses only one, very weakened, incoherent source it escapes preceding objections and can …

On the direct observability of quantum waves

F Selleri - Foundations of Physics, 1982 - Springer
Fundamental experiments on the dual nature of atomic entities (photons, electrons,
neutrons, etc.) can be interpreted in terms of “empty” waves not carrying energy and …

The origins of the research on the foundations of quantum mechanics (and other critical activities) in Italy during the 1970s

A Baracca, S Bergia, F Del Santo - Studies in History and Philosophy of …, 2017 - Elsevier
We present a reconstruction of the studies on the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics
carried out in Italy at the turn of the 1960s. Actually, they preceded the revival of the interest …

Quantum amplication and the detection of empty de Broglie waves

HP Yuen - Physics Letters A, 1986 - Elsevier
A simple formula relating the input and output quantum states of a beamsplitter is derived
and applied to the analysis of an interferometer with a photon duplicator along one arm. The …

Wave-particle dualism and the interpretation of quantum mechanics

C Dewdney, G Horton, MM Lam, Z Malik… - Foundations of physics, 1992 - Springer
The realist interpretations of quantum theory, proposed by de Broglie and by Bohm, are re-
examined and their differences, especially concerning many-particle systems and the …

De Broglie's wave particle duality in the stochastic interpretation of quantum mechanics: A testable physical assumption

P Gueret, JP Vigier - Foundations of Physics, 1982 - Springer
If one starts from de Broglie's basic relativistic assumptions, ie, that all particles have an
intrinsic real internal vibration in their rest frame, ie, hv 0= m 0 c 2; that when they are at any …
