  1. 1. The Collapse of Decoherence : Can Decoherence Theory Solve The Problems of Measurement?

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Författare :Karl Herlin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :quantum mechanics; quantum physics; philosophy of physics; interpretation of quantum mechanics; measurement problem; problem of preferred basis; problem of non-observability of interference; problem of definite outcomes; environment induced superselection rules; copenhagen interpretation; decoherence; irreducibility of classical concepts;

    Sammanfattning : In this review study, we ask ourselves if decoherence theory can solve the problems of measurement in quantum mechanics. After an introduction to decoherence theory, we present the problem of preferred basis, the problem of non-observability of interference and the problem of definite outcomes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. How to Rise from Ashes : A Comprehensive Guide to Finally Understand Canonical Quantization and Build Quantum Mechanics from Scratch

    L3-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Materialteori; Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för teoretisk filosofi

    Författare :Karl Herlin; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Quantum mechanics; History of quantum mechanics; Canonical Quantization; double-slit experiment; The Photoelectric Effect; Compton Scattering; Matter Waves; Bohr’s Atomic Model; Old Quantum Theory; Heisenberg-Born-Jordan Matrix Mechanics; Schrodinger’s Quantum Wave Mechanics; equations of motion;

    Sammanfattning : In this review essay, we account for the historical development of canonical quantization. By a detailed review of The Ultraviolet Catastrophe, The Photoelectric Effect, Compton Scattering, Matter Waves and Bohr's Atomic Model we learn about Old Quantum Theory. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Is Triple Coincidence a Viable Method for Nuclear Weapons Detection in Light of Double Coincidence Methods?

    L3-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Författare :Karl Herlin; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Xenon; Coincidence; Nuclear weapons; Monte Carlo; simulation; Double coincidence; Triple cpincidence; isotope;

    Sammanfattning : A fully functioning Comprehensive nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) is essential for a world free of nuclear weapons. To measure radionuclides in the atmosphere in accordance with the CTBT, facilities such as SAUNA uses double coincidence techniques to discriminate between interesting Xenon isotopes. LÄS MER
