Spontaneous localization of a system of identical particles

Спонтанная локализация системы тождественных частиц

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

Quantum mechanics with spontaneous localization is a recently proposed stochastic modification of theN-body Schrödinger equation which is consistent both with microphysics and macrophysics and leads to a natural solution of the problem of quantum measurement. The treatment is extended here to systems of identical particles in the framework of the first quantization formalism.

Riassunto

La meccanica quantistica con localizzazione spontanea è una modificazione stocastica dell’equazione di Schrödinger aN corpi recentemente proposta che è compatibile sia con la microfisica che con la macrofisica e conduce a una naturale soluzione del problema della misurazione quantistica. La trattazione è estesa qui a sistemi di particelle identiche nell’ambito del formalismo di prima quantizzazione.

Резюме

Квантовая механика со спонтанной локализациеи представляет недавно предложенную стохастическую модификациюN-частичного уравнения Шредингера, которая согласуется с микрофизикой и макрофизикой и приводит к естественному решению проблемы квантового измерения. В этой работе производится обобщение на случай систем тождественных частиц в рамках формализма первичного квантования.
