Description for Bohmian Mechanics, Open Quantum Systems and Continuous Measurements
Hardback. Num Pages: 243 pages, 7 black & white illustrations, 12 colour illustrations, 10 colour tables, biography. BIC Classification: PDDM; PDX; PHS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
This book shows how Bohmian mechanics overcomes the need for a measurement postulate involving wave function collapse. The measuring process plays a very important role in quantum mechanics. It has been widely analyzed within the Copenhagen approach through the Born and von Neumann postulates, with later extension due to Lüders. In contrast, much less effort has been invested in the measurement theory within the Bohmian mechanics framework. The continuous measurement (sharp and fuzzy, or strong and weak) problem is considered here in this framework. The authors begin by generalizing the so-called Mensky approach, which is based on restricted path integral through quantum corridors. The measuring system is ... Read more

Reviews for Bohmian Mechanics, Open Quantum Systems and Continuous Measurements
“The authors concentrate on the measurement theory within the Bohmian quantum mechanics framework. … the book can be recommended for reader who need an introduction into the Bohmian quantum mechanics and see a number of its applications.” (Willi-Hans Steeb, zbMATH 1371.81008, 2017)
