Book Synopsis Quantum-Classical Correspondence by : A. O. Bolivar

Download or read book Quantum-Classical Correspondence written by A. O. Bolivar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-01-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At what level of physical existence does "quantum behavior" begin? How does it develop from classical mechanics? This book addresses these questions and thereby sheds light on fundamental conceptual problems of quantum mechanics. It elucidates the problem of quantum-classical correspondence by developing a procedure for quantizing stochastic systems (e.g. Brownian systems) described by Fokker-Planck equations. The logical consistency of the scheme is then verified by taking the classical limit of the equations of motion and corresponding physical quantities. Perhaps equally important, conceptual problems concerning the relationship between classical and quantum physics are identified and discussed. Graduate students and physical scientists will find this an accessible entrée to an intriguing and thorny issue at the core of modern physics.
