Lecture series: Attempting to complete (non-relativistic) Quantum Mechanics (3/3)

by Jürg Fröhlich (ETH-Zürich)

Friday 5 Jun 2026, 15:00 → 17:00 Europe/Rome

P2C (Dipartimento di Fisica e Astronomia - Edificio Paolotti)

The first lecture will contain a brief summary of some of the
origins and special features of (text-book) Quantum Mechanics.

It will be followed by general remarks on Quantum Theory, such
as: Indeterminacy of relativistic physics and of Quantum Mechanics,
inadequacy of the Schroedinger Equation,  Einstein causality,
properties of relativistic quantum theory (e.g., Huygens' Principle).

In a third lecture, I will present the basic elements and results of
the so-called "ETH-Approach/Completion" of Quantum Mechanics, including
an analysis of fluorescence.

The last lecture will be about weak measurements and particle tracks
in Quantum Mechanics.
