Some of these have never  been solved. Motivated by this state of affairs, a number of  physicists have worked together for over thirty years to develop  \u003cem\u003estochastic electrodynamics\u003c\/em\u003e, a physical theory aimed at finding a  conceptually satisfactory, realistic explanation of quantum phenomena.  \u003cbr\u003e  This is the first book to present a comprehensive review of stochastic  electrodynamics, from its origins to present-day developments. After a  general introduction for the non-specialist, a critical discussion is  presented of the main results of the theory as well as of the major  problems encountered. A chapter on stochastic optics and some  interesting consequences for local realism and the Bell inequalities  is included. In the final chapters the authors propose and develop a  new version of the theory that brings it in closer correspondence with  quantum mechanics and sheds some light on the wave aspects of matter  and the linkage with quantum electrodynamics. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e The volume will be of interest to scholars and  postgraduate students of theoretical and mathematical physics,  foundations and philosophy of physics, and teachers of theoretical  physics and quantum mechanics, electromagnetic theory, and statistical  physics (stochastic processes).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792338185\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8723-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 512\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378393931916,"sku":"9780792338185","price":341.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792338185.jpg?v=1774492070","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792338185","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
