Superconductivity Dome around a Quantum Critical Point
... disappears, since both are due to a conventional electronphonon interaction. What is totally unexpected is the observed, dome-shape of the superconducting phase boundary. This suggests that something not taken into account by existing theories is occurring. A hint is given by the fact that TCDW foll ...

... However, any such inclusive conception would have to revise, not only our notion of the states of atomic objects, but of macroscopic objects also. This point was best illustrated by Schrödinger in his famous 'cat paradox'. A single photon in a state of superposition is connected to a detector, which ...

Lecture-XXIII Quantum Mechanics
... For some solutions to the Schrodinger equation, the integral is infinite; in that case no multiplicative factor is going to make it 1. The same goes for the trivial solution ψ= 0. Such non-normalizable solutions cannot represent particles, and must be rejected. Physically realizable states correspo ...

Since the quantum and classical diffusion curves agree for short times, one might expect that this time scale should simply become very long in the classical limit. While ...
