Interpretation Of Quantum Theory

The interpretation problems of quantum theory are considered. In the formalism of quantum theory the possible states of a system are described by a state vector. The state vector, which will be represented as |ψ> in Dirac notation, is the most general form of the quantum mechanical description. The central problem of the interpretation of quantum theory is to explain the physical significance of the |ψ>. In this paper we have shown that one of the best way to make of interpretation of wave function is to take the wave function as an operator.

The Impact

Abstract. The potential of data assimilation for hydrologic predictions has been demonstrated in many research studies. Watersheds over which multiple observation types are available can potentially further benefit from data assimilation by having multiple updated states from which hydrologic predictions can be generated. However, the magnitude and time span of the impact of the assimilation of an observation varies according not only to its type, but also to the variables included in the state vector. This study examines the impact of multivariate synthetic data assimilation using the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) into the spatially distributed hydrologic model CEQUEAU for the mountainous Nechako River located in British-Columbia, Canada. Synthetic data includes daily snow cover area (SCA), daily measurements of snow water equivalent (SWE) at three different locations and daily streamflow data at the watershed outlet. Results show a large variability of the continuous rank probability skill score over a wide range of prediction horizons (days to weeks) depending on the state vector configuration and the type of observations assimilated. Overall, the variables most closely linearly linked to the observations are the ones worth considering adding to the state vector. The performance of the assimilation of basin-wide SCA, which does not have a decent proxy among potential state variables, does not surpass the open loop for any of the simulated variables. However, the assimilation of streamflow offers major improvements steadily throughout the year, but mainly over the short-term (up to 5 days) forecast horizons, while the impact of the assimilation of SWE gains more importance during the snowmelt period over the mid-term (up to 50 days) forecast horizon compared with open loop. The combined assimilation of streamflow and SWE performs better than its individual counterparts, offering improvements over all forecast horizons considered and throughout the whole year, including the critical period of snowmelt. This highlights the potential benefit of using multivariate data assimilation for streamflow predictions in snow-dominated regions.

Short Observation Time

In a short observation time, after the range alignment and phase adjustment, the motion of a target can be approximated as a uniform rotation. The radar observing process can be simply described as multiplying an observation matrix on the ISAR image, which can be thought of as a linear system. It is known that the longer observation time is, the higher cross-range resolution is. In order to deal with the conflict between short observation time and high cross-range resolution, we introduce Kalman filtering (KF) into the ISAR imaging and propose a novel method to reconstruct a high-resolution image with short time observed data. As KF has excellent reconstruction performance, it leads to a good application in ISAR image reconstruction. At each observation aperture, the reconstructed image denotes the state vector in KF at the aperture time. It is corrected by a two-step KF process: prediction and update. As iteration continues, the state vector is gradually corrected to a well-focused high-resolution image. Thus, the proposed method can obtain a high-resolution image in a short observation time. Both simulated and real data are applied to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

Primary quantum state diffusion (PSD) theory is an alternative quantum theory from which classical dynamics, quantum dynamics and localization dynamics are derived. It is based on four principles, that a system is represented by an operator, its state by a normalized state vector, the state vector satisfies a Langevin-Itô state diffusion equation, and the resultant density operator for an ensemble must satisfy an equation of elementary Lindblad form. There are three conditions. The ז 0 first determines the operator, to within an undetermined universal time constant ז 0 . The second and third conditions put opposing bounds on ז 0 . Dissipation of coherence is distinguished from destruction of coherence. The state diffusion destroys coherence and produces the localization or reduction that makes classical dynamics possible. PSD theory is a development of the environmental quantum state diffusion theory of Gisin and Percival and particularly resembles earlier proposals by Gisin and by Milburn. It is also related to the spontaneous localization theories of Ghirardi, Rimini and Weber, of Diósi and of Pearle. The non-relativistic PSD theory is of value only for systems which occupy small regions of space. Special relativity is needed for more extended systems even when they contain only slowly moving massive particles. Experiments on coherence lifetimes and matter interferometry are proposed which either measure ז 0 or put bounds on it, and which might distinguish between PSD and ordinary quantum mechanics.
