Fundamental Aspects of Quantum Theory (Paperback, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1986)

Thi's book collects the contributions to the NATO Advanced Research WJrkshop on "FundaIrental Aspects of Quantum 'Iheory", held at the Centro di Cultura Scientifica "Alessandro Volta", Villa Olma, Carro, Italy, 2-7 September 1985. The rreeting was dedicated to the rremory of the late pro- fessor Piero Caldirola, a prominent member of the Physics Departrrent of the University of r1ilan and a native of Como. The aim of the workshop has been to present several recent experi- rrental results and theoretical developrrents concerning the various fa- cets of quantum physics. The breadth of scope of the rreeting was in accordance with Professor Caldirola's vast scientific interests, and fostered communication among experirrental physicists, theoretical and mathematical physicists, and nEthematicians, working in different but related fields. Indeed, lectu- rers endeavoured to make their contributions understandable to people acquainted with the problem but not necessarily familiar with the tech- nical details; and these efforts were successful, as indicated by the frequent private discussions which took place among participants belon- ging to different breeds and brands. 1ne rreeting was made up of six one-day sessions, each of them addres- sing to a specific aspect of quantum theory: 1. General Problems and Crucial Experinents; with emphasis on sin- gle-particle interference eh~rirrents of neutrons and of photons, and on the rreasurerrent problem. 2. Quantization and Stochastic Processes; including stochastic quan- tization of gauge fields, stochastic description of supersyrnmetric fields, quantum stochastic calculus and stochastic mechanics.
