A new version of quantum theory

In summary, The conversation is about an introduction to the tomographic picture of quantum mechanics, which is a paper written by a researcher from the Russian Academy of Science. This paper presents a new take on quantum mechanics, using Wigner functions and the Radon transform. Other publications and resources on this topic are also mentioned, such as a paper by Surya Ganguli and an introduction to quantum state tomography by Lvovsky and Raymer.

Has anybody seen this theory before, If so, do you have more information on it.

I'm sorry you are not generating any responses at the moment. Is there any additional information you can share with us? Any new findings?

The author is from The Russian academy of science(Noble prizes). He has a very interesting take on QM.

This is one of his oldest papers.

I'm not sure it's a new version of QM. It seems like QM using Wigner functions, which could rightly be called tomographic because of its use in quantum state tomography, as well as its relationship to the Radon transform.

An good introduction to QM using Wigner functions is Surya Ganguli's http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/49800/50586846.pdf .

An introduction to quantum state tomography is Lvovsky and Raymer's http://old.rqc.ru/quantech/pubs/2009/tomography-rmp.pdf.

FAQ: A new version of quantum theory

What is the new version of quantum theory?

The new version of quantum theory is a proposed update to the existing theory that explains how particles behave on a microscopic scale. It aims to address some of the limitations and paradoxes of the current theory, such as the measurement problem and the conflict with general relativity.

What are the key differences between the new version and the old version?

The new version of quantum theory introduces new concepts, such as hidden variables and nonlocality, to explain the behavior of particles. It also challenges the idea of wave-particle duality and proposes a more deterministic view of quantum mechanics.

How will the new version impact our understanding of the universe?

If the new version of quantum theory is proven to be valid, it could greatly impact our understanding of the universe. It may provide a more complete and accurate explanation of the behavior of particles and could potentially lead to new technologies and applications.

Has the new version been tested or proven?

The new version of quantum theory is still in the theoretical stage and has not yet been fully tested or proven. However, there have been some experiments and observations that support some of its concepts, such as the violation of Bell's inequalities.

How long will it take for the new version to be widely accepted?

It is difficult to predict how long it will take for the new version of quantum theory to be widely accepted, as it depends on further research, experimentation, and peer review. It may take several years or even decades for it to gain widespread acceptance in the scientific community.
