Abstract: A partial differential equation model is analyzed for the two-slit experiment of quantum mechanics. The state variable of the equation is the probability density function of particle positions. The equation has a diffusion term corresponding to the random movement of particles, and a nonlocal advection term corresponding to the movement of particles in the transverse direction perpendicular to their forward movement. The model is compared to the Schr\"odinger equation model of the experiment. The model supports the ensemble interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Quantum Particle Statistics in Classical Shallow Water Waves [4.995343972237369]
We show that when locally oscillating particles are guided by real wave gradients, particles may exhibit trajectories of alternating periodic or chaotic dynamics. The particle probability distribution function of this analogy reveals the quantum statistics of the standard solutions of the Schr"odinger equation.

Open Quantum Systems with Kadanoff-Baym Equations [0.0]
We study quantum mechanical fermionic particles exhibiting one bound state within a one-dimensional attractive square-well potential in a heat bath of bosonic particles. For this open quantum system we formulate the non-equilibrium Kadanoff-Baym equations for the system particles. The corresponding spatially imhomogeneous integro-differential equations for the one-particle Greens's function are solved numerically.

Double-scale theory [77.34726150561087]
We present a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, called the double-scale theory. It is based on the simultaneous existence of two wave functions in the laboratory reference frame. The external wave function corresponds to a field that pilots the center-of-mass of the quantum system. The internal wave function corresponds to the interpretation proposed by Edwin Schr"odinger.

Dispersive readout of molecular spin qudits [68.8204255655161]
We study the physics of a magnetic molecule described by a "giant" spin with multiple $d > 2$ spin states. We derive an expression for the output modes in the dispersive regime of operation. We find that the measurement of the cavity transmission allows to uniquely determine the spin state of the qudits.

This paper considers a main particle and an incident particle classical mechanics elastic collision preserving energy and momentum. The main result of the paper shows that the colliding two particle classical Hamiltonian energy can be represented in four weighted individual particle. The Schrodinger equation can also be used to represent corrections for Newton's equation and suggests a user profile to be used in the search for Dark Matter.

External and internal wave functions: de Broglie's double-solution theory? [77.34726150561087]
We propose an interpretative framework for quantum mechanics corresponding to the specifications of Louis de Broglie's double-solution theory. The principle is to decompose the evolution of a quantum system into two wave functions. For Schr"odinger, the particles are extended and the square of the module of the (internal) wave function of an electron corresponds to the density of its charge in space.
