On Wave Particle Duality

Quantum Physics 2013-09-27 v3

Abstract

In a recent paper a mathematical model for quantum measurement was presented. The phenomenon of wave particle duality, which is introduced in every beginning course of quantum theory, can be explained using this model. Although it is a special case of the general theory it has historic interest and involves the use of a continuous spectrum which was treated only casually in the original article. The treatment here is self contained except for the proof of a mathematical theorem appearing in the first paper.
