Description
Summary:"This volume commemorates the scientific contributions of Detlef Dürr (1951-2021) to foundational questions of physics. It presents new contributions from his former students, collaborators, and colleagues about their current research on topics inspired or influenced by Dürr. These topics are drawn from physics, mathematics, and philosophy of nature, and concern interpretations of quantum theory, new developments of Bohmian mechanics, the role of typicality, quantum physics in relativistic space-time, classical and quantum electrodynamics, and statistical mechanics. The volume thus also gives a snapshot of present research in the foundations of physics."- publisher.
Item Description:"Some of the chapters in this book are writeups of talks given at the Laws of Nature Conference Remembering Detlef Dürr, held on August 8-12, 2022, at Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich (Germany), where Detlef worked for more than 30 years. The conference was organized by Angelo Bassi, Dirk-André Deckert, Dustin Lazarovici, Peter Pickl, Paula Reichert, and Ward Struyve." - preface.
