David Bohm Centennial PerspectivesMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20191 online resource (544 p.)3-03897-616-4 Emergent quantum mechanics explores the possibility of an ontology for quantum mechanics. The resurgence of interest in ""deeper-level"" theories for quantum phenomena challenges the standard, textbook interpretation. The book presents expert views that critically evaluate the significance-for 21st century physics-of ontological quantum mechanics, an approach that David Bohm helped pioneer. The possibility of a deterministic quantum theory was first introduced with the original de Broglie-Bohm theory, which has also been developed as Bohmian mechanics. The wide range of perspectives that were contributed to this book on the occasion of David Bohm's centennial celebration provide ample evidence for the physical consistency of ontological quantum mechanics. The book addresses deeper-level questions such as the following: Is reality intrinsically random or fundamentally interconnected? Is the universe local or nonlocal? Might a radically new conception of reality include a form of quantum causality or quantum ontology? What is the role of the experimenter agent? As the book demonstrates, the advancement of 'quantum ontology'-as a scientific concept-marks a clear break with classical reality. The search for quantum reality entails unconventional causal structures and non-classical ontology, which can be fully consistent with the known record of quantum observations in the laboratory.Aharonov-Bohm effectatom-surface scatteringatomic metastable statesBell inequalityBell theoremBell's theoremBianchi identityblack hole thermodynamicsBohm theorybohmian mechanicsBohmian mechanicsBorn rule statisticsbouncing oil dropletsBurgers equationCanonical Presentationcommutatorcomplex entropy.computational irreducibilityconscious agentconspiracyconstraintscontextualitycovariant quantum gravitycurvature tensorDavid Bohmde Broglie-Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanicsde Broglie-Bohm theoryde Broglie-Bohm theorydecoherencediffractiondiffusion constantdiscrete calculusDove prismdynamical chaosemergent quantum gravityemergent quantum mechanicsemergent quantum stateemergent space-timeentropic gravityentropy and time evolutionepistemic agentergodicityFeynman pathsfractal geometryfractional velocityfree willfundamental irreversibilitygauge freedomGaussian-like solutionsgeneralized Lagrangian pathsgravityH-theoremHamiltonianinterior-boundary conditioninterpretationinterpretationsinterpretations of quantum mechanicsiterantKilmister equationLangevin equationLevi-Civita connectionMach-Zehnder interferometermagnetic deflectometrymany interacting worldsmatter-wave opticsmatter-wavesmeasurement problemmetrologymicro-constituentsmind-body problemmolecule interferenceMonte Carlo simulationsno-hidden-variables theoremsnomologynon-localitynonequilibrium thermodynamicsnonlocalitynumber theoryobjective non-signaling constraintobservablesontological quantum mechanicsoperator thermodynamic functionsp-adic metricpast of the photonphotochemistryphoton trajectoryphysical ontologypilot wavepilot-wave theoryPoincaré recurrenceprimitive ontologyquantum causalityquantum field theoryquantum foundationsquantum holismquantum inaccessibilityquantum mechanicsquantum non-equilibriumquantum ontologyquantum potentialquantum theoryquantum thermodynamicsrelational interpretation of quantum mechanicsrelational spaceresonances in quantum systemsretrocausalityRetrocausationSchrödinger equationself-referential dynamicssingular limitspace-time fluctuationsspinspontaneous state reductionStern-Gerlachstochastic differential equationsStochastic Electrodynamicsstochastic quantum dynamicsstrong couplingsub-quantum dynamicssuperdeterminismsurrealistic trajectoriessymplectic camelthe causal arrow of timethe Friedrichs modeltime-symmetrytoy-modelstrajectoriestransition probability amplitudeTuring incomputabilityultraviolet divergenceundecidable dynamicsvortical dynamicswavefunction nodesweak measurementweak valueszero-point fieldWalleczek Janauth1328731Grössing GerhardauthHiley BasilauthPylkkänen PaavoauthBOOK9910346839303321Emergent Quantum Mechanics.
