From September 24 through 30, 1992 the Workshop on "Waves and Parti
cles in Light and Matter" was held in the Italian city of Trani in
celebration of the centenary of Louis de Broglie's birth. As is
well known, the relationship between quantum theory and ob jective
reality was one of the main threads running through the researches
of this French physicist. It was therefore in a fitting tribute to
him on his 90th birthday that ten years ago an international
conference on the same subject was convened in Perugia. On that
occasion, physicists from all over the world interested in the
problematics of wave-particle duality engaged in thoughtful debates
(the proceedings of which were subsequently published) on recent
theoretical and experimental developments in our understanding of
the foundations of quantum mechanics. This time around, about 120
scientists, coming from 5 continents, in the warm and pleasant
atmosphere of Trani's Colonna Conference Center focussed their
discussions on recent results concerned with the EPR para dox,
matter-interferometry, reality of de Broglie's waves, photon
detection, macroscopic quantum coherence, alternative theories to
usual quantum mechanics, special relativity, state reduction, and
other related topics. The workshop was organized in plenary
sessions, round tables, and poster sessions, and the present volume
collects most-but not all-of the presented papers. A number of
acknowledgements are due. We thank, first of all, the contributors,
without whose constant dedication this volume could not have been
published."
