Matrix mechanics mis-prized: Max Born's belated nobelization
We examine evaluations of the contributions of Matrix Mechanics and Max Born to the formulation of quantum mechanics from Heisenberg's Helgoland...

Wigner’s friend and Relational Quantum Mechanics: A Reply to Laudisa
Relational Quantum Mechanics is an interpretation of quantum mechanics proposed by Carlo Rovelli. Rovelli argues that, in the same spirit as...

The Relational Dissolution of the Quantum Measurement Problems
The Quantum Measurement Problem is arguably one of the most debated issues in the philosophy of Quantum Mechanics, since it represents not only a...

The Thermodynamic Cost of Choosing
Choice can be defined in thermodynamical terms, and shown to have a thermodynamic cost: choosing between a binary alternative at temperature T ...

Emulating the impact of additional proton–proton interactions in the ATLAS simulation by presampling sets of inelastic Monte Carlo events
The accurate simulation of additional interactions at the ATLAS experiment for the analysis of proton–proton collisions delivered by the Large Hadron...

Can There be a Process Without Time? Processualism Within Timeless Physics
Process ontology is making deep inroads into the hard sciences. For it offers a workable understanding of dynamic phenomena which sits well with...

Preparation in Bohmian Mechanics
According to Bohmian mechanics, we see the particle, not the pilot wave. But to make predictions we need to know the wave. How do we learn about the...

Galilean Relativity
In this chapter we discuss the views on space, time, and motion from the standpoint of Galileo and Newton. The distinction between absolute and... -
A Critical Analysis of ‘Relative Facts Do Not Exist: Relational Quantum Mechanics Is Incompatible with Quantum Mechanics’ by Jay Lawrence, Marcin Markiewicz and Marek Źukowski
We discuss a recent work by J. Lawrence et al. [arxiv.org/abs/2208.11793] criticizing relational quantum mechanics (RQM) and based on a famous...

Relational Quantum Mechanics is About Facts, Not States: A Reply to Pienaar and Brukner
In recent works, Časlav Brukner and Jacques Pienaar have raised interesting objections to the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics. We...

Loop Quantum Gravity and planck Scale Phenomenology
Of the different approaches to quantum gravity, the best developed, from the point of view of addressing the key theoretical questions a quantum... -
Relational Quantum Mechanics: Ozawa’s Intersubjectivity Theorem as Justification of the Postulate on Internally Consistent Descriptions
The Ozawa’s intersubjectivity theorem (OIT) proved within quantum measurement theory supports the new postulate of relational quantum mechanics...

Introduction
This chapter covers the historical basis of the quest for a theory of quantum gravity. The discussion includes the development of quantum theory in... -
An Attempt to Understand Relational Quantum Mechanics
We search for a possible mathematical formulation of some of the key ideas of the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics and study their...

How Different Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics can Enrich Each Other: The Case of the Relational Quantum Mechanics and the Modal-Hamiltonian Interpretation
In the literature on the interpretation of quantum mechanics, not many works attempt to adopt a proactive perspective aimed at seeing how different...

q deformed formulation of Hamiltonian SU(3) Yang-Mills theory
We study SU(3) Yang-Mills theory in (2 + 1) dimensions based on networks of Wilson lines. With the help of the q deformation, networks respect the...

Wide Energy Spectrum of Gravitation: The General Theory and Beyond
The mere fact that GR confirms that (non-gravitational) laws of physics may take on their SR forms locally at a point, where a Lorentz frame is set,...
