Exploring Quantum Foundations with Single Photons

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the intersection of reality, causality, and uncertainty in quantum mechanics, this thesis presents high-precision single-photon experiments that deepen our understanding of quantum foundations. It explores three pivotal experiments: one establishing the quantum wavefunction as a component of objective reality, another revealing that quantum correlations defy traditional cause-and-effect explanations, and a third introducing a new uncertainty relation for joint quantum measurements that challenges established norms.
