A novel interpretation of the quantum mechanical superposition is put forward. Quantum systems scan all possible available states and switch randomly and very rapidly among them. The longer they remain in a given state, the larger the…
A proposal is put forward for an estimate of the duration of a transition between atomic states. The proposal rests on the consideration that a resonance of the atomic electron with modes of the zero-point radiation field of Compton's…
Being able to reliably transfer the quantum state from one system to another is crucial to developing quantum networks. A standard way to accomplish this transfer of information is by making use of an intermediate information carrier (e.g.,…
