How the Laws of Physics Lie
... finally, ‘a physical explanation in terms of electron theory’ given by Lorentz, which is ‘essentially the theory we accept today’. Everitt distinguishes Airy's phenomenological law from the later theoretical treatment of Lorentz, not because Lorentz employs the unobservable electron, but rather beca ...

... subsequently derived does transform in the wrong way and its integral over space does not correspond with the Hamiltonian of the classical relativistic particle. The origin of these substitutions can be understood by looking at our initial mechanical spring-mass model of the Klein Gordon equation sh ...

The Physics of Quantum Mechanics
... The book does not merely convey correct ideas, but also refutes misconceptions. Just to get started on the right foot, I list the most important and most pernicious misconceptions about quantum mechanics: (a) An electron has a position but you don’t know what it is. (b) The only states are energy ei ...
