A short note about the dynamical description of the measurement process in quantum physics
The measurement process of observables in a quantum system comes out to be an
unsovable problem which started in the early times of the development of the
theory. In the present note we consider the measured system part of an open
system interacting with the measuring device and show under which ideal
conditions the measure process may ideally work. Our procedure leads to the
conclusion that there is no hope that any experimental procedure will be able
to lead to a clean solution of the process, except maybe in very specific
cases. The reasons for this situation are deeply rooted in the fundamental
properties of quantum theory.Comment: 6 page
Reformulating the NMR Quantum Mechanics Fundamental Aspects: Spin 1/2 Evolution in Magnetic Field Gradients
Magnetization of a spin1/2 set is determined by means of their individual
wave function. The theoretical treatment based on the fundamental axioms of
quantum mechanics and solving explicitly Schr\"odinger equation gives the
evolution of spin1/2 system driven by magnetic fields. In this work we consider
the energy of the spin system interacting with magnetic fields and all the
other parts of the energy as a constant reservoir. Solving this complete
Hamiltonian can explain the measured sign change of nuclear spin noise spectra
compared to conventional NMR experiments and the possibility to make NMR images
without radio frequency magnetic fields. The possibility to make NMR images
without RF magnetic fields is an indication that entangled spin1/2 states can
be manipulated by magnetic field gradients, opening a new way to perform
quantum computation by NMR.Comment: 27 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1504.0488
