Summary
We discuss the complementarity existing between statistical and dynamical descriptions of macroscopic systems, introduced by Bohr and quantitatively expressed by some correlation relations obtained in the framework of the Landau’s fluctuation theory. An operative analysis of this logical relation leads to a new interpretation of the concept of indistinguishability of identical particles.
Riassunto
Si discute la complementarietà esistente tra le descrizioni dinamica e statistica dei sistemi macroscopici, introdotta da Bohr e quantitativamente espressa da alcune relazioni di correlazione ottenibili nell’ambito della teoria delle fluttuazioni di Landau. Un’analisi operativa di questa relazione logica conduce a una nuova interpretazione del concetto d’indistinguibilità delle particelle identiche.
Резюме
Мы обсуждаем дополнительность, существующую между статистическим и динамическим описаниями макроскопических систем, введенную Бором и количественно выраженную с помощью некоторых корреляционных соотношений, полученных в рамках теории флуктуаций Ландау. Проведенный анализ этого логического соотношения приводит к новой интерпретации концепции неразличимости тождественных частиц.
