  1. 1. How to Rise from Ashes : A Comprehensive Guide to Finally Understand Canonical Quantization and Build Quantum Mechanics from Scratch

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori; Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för teoretisk filosofi

    Author : Karl Herlin; [2022]
    Keywords : Quantum mechanics; History of quantum mechanics; Canonical Quantization; double-slit experiment; The Photoelectric Effect; Compton Scattering; Matter Waves; Bohr’s Atomic Model; Old Quantum Theory; Heisenberg-Born-Jordan Matrix Mechanics; Schrodinger’s Quantum Wave Mechanics; equations of motion;

    Abstract : In this review essay, we account for the historical development of canonical quantization. By a detailed review of The Ultraviolet Catastrophe, The Photoelectric Effect, Compton Scattering, Matter Waves and Bohr's Atomic Model we learn about Old Quantum Theory. READ MORE

  2. 2. Quantum entanglement in the double slit experiment with qubit which-path detectors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik

    Author : Johannes Kirchner; [2015]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : After reviewing basic concepts and tools in order to quantify entanglement, a theoretical set up is proposed, which is based on the double slit experiment and the Mach-Zehnder interferometer. A particle, which is in a superposition of two paths, can interfere with a qubit on each path before it is scattered by a beam splitter and measured by two separate detectors. READ MORE

  3. 3. Diagrammatic Representations in Quantum Theories

    University essay from Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Jacob Stenberg; [2013]
    Keywords : Amplitudes; Feynman; diagrams; quantum; field; mechanics;

    Abstract : Starting from a mathematical basis where one analyses and developing different techniques in how to solve and represent different kinds of integrals with diagrams. Representing the integrals as n-valent vertices and introducing propagators is a great tool that helps with the book-keeping of the solutions and will sometimes do the calculations redundant.

  4. 4. Reducing handling errors on a Mach Zehnder interferometer and illustrating single photon interference

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Stavros Rybank; Joakim Storck; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : At Vetenskapens Hus there is an exhibition where single photon interference is demonstrated for younger students, using a Mach Zehnder interferometer, to arouse their interest in physics. This report describes the work done to improve the interferometer for this exhibition by making it user-friendly, less exposed to the risk of handler errors and to create a more interesting experience for the students.

  5. 5. Interference and Energy Conservation in Phased Antenna Arrays and Young’s Double Slit  Experiment

    University essay from Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen; Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Andreas Lundin; [2012]
    Keywords : Interference; energy conservation; double slit; antenna; antennas; array; phased; electromagnetic coupling;

    Abstract : The interest in creating and detecting electromagnetic waves carryingangular momentum in such a way that they form helical wavefronts,so called "twisted light'', has increased in recent decades.One possible way of generating such waves at radio frequenciesis to use a circular phased antenna array, where a larger relativephasing of the antenna elements corresponds to more twist of thewavefront per wavelength.
