Abstract: I present a microscopic framework in which quantum phenomena emerge from particle-particle interactions governed by Newton's second law of motion. Within this approach, stationary states and quantized energy spectra arise naturally for the particle in a box. The same dynamics reproduces interference fringes in the double-slit experiment. Finally, I derive the Schrödinger equation from the underlying principles.

Schr\"odinger cat states of a 16-microgram mechanical oscillator [54.35850218188371]
The superposition principle is one of the most fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. Here we demonstrate the preparation of a mechanical resonator with an effective mass of 16.2 micrograms in Schr"odinger cat states of motion. We show control over the size and phase of the superposition and investigate the decoherence dynamics of these states.

The Time-Evolution of States in Quantum Mechanics [77.34726150561087]
It is argued that the Schr"odinger equation does not yield a correct description of the quantum-mechanical time evolution of states of isolated (open) systems featuring events. A precise general law for the time evolution of states replacing the Schr"odinger equation is formulated within the so-called ETH-Approach to Quantum Mechanics.

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.
