Non Ideal Measurements by David Albert (Philosophy, Columbia) and Barry Loewer
... form. An advocate of the modal interpretation must argue that since the measure of the set of such states is 0, it is very unlikely that they are actually encountered. 5. For any observable A* there is an initial state that the Hamiltonian evolves into, a state in which A* is well defined. We menti ...

WAVE PARTICLE DUALITY, THE OBSERVER AND
... The experiment uses a coincidence counter to link each signal photon with its idler photon twin, after adjusting for the 8 ns delay. At time T4, the human observe returns, then observes the recordings at D0 and D1 through D4. b) Understanding the results We now see that it is the availability of ‘wh ...

... of the preparation procedure, the state of each particle will be given by the same wave function Ψ(x, t), though it is common practice (and a point of contention) in quantum mechanics to say that the wave function describes the whole ensemble, not each one of its members.

Photon localizability - Current research interest: photon position
... there is not a basis of localized eigenvectors. However, we have recently published papers where it is demonstrated that a family of position operators exists. Since a sum over all k’s is required, we need to define 2 transverse directions for each k. One choice is the spherical polar unit vectors i ...
