# Quantum Mechanics – Interpretations

Whenever we talk about Quantum Mechanics, one of the first questions would be, “What about the cat?” This question, 真, is about the interpretations of Quantum Mechanics. The standard interpretation, 所谓哥本哈根解释, leads to the famous Schrodinger’s cat.

# Quantum Field Theory

In this post on Quantum Mechanics (QM), we will go a bit beyond it and touch upon Quantum Field Theory – the way it is used in particle physics. In the last couple of posts, I outlined a philosophical introduction to QM, as well as its historical origin – how it came about as an ad-hoc explanation of the blackbody radiation, and a brilliant description of the photoelectric effect.

# Historical Origin of Quantum Mechanics

In this section, we will try to look at the historical origin of Quantum Mechanics, which is usually presented succinctly using scary looking mathematical formulas. The role of mathematics in physics, as Richard Feynman explains (in his lectures on QED given in Auckland, New Zealand in 1979, available on YouTube, but as poor quality recordings) is purely utilitarian.

# 不确定性原理

1. 一个粒子的位置和动量本质上是相互关联的. 正如我们更精确地测量动量, 粒子种 “向外扩散,” 乔治·伽莫夫的性格, 先生. 汤普金斯, 把它. 换句话说, 这只是其中的一件事情; 世界的运作方式.
2. 当我们衡量的位置, 我们打​​扰势头. 我们的测量探头 “太胖,” 因为它是. 当我们提高位置精度 (由波长较短的光闪耀, 例如), 我们打​​扰的势头越来越多 (因为较短波长的光具有更高的能量/动量).
3. 与此密切相关的解释是认为测不准原理是一个感性的限制.
4. 我们也可以想到的不确定性原理的认知极限，如果我们考虑到未来的理论可能超越这些限制.
