Quantum Mechanics - A Deterministic Approach and Interpretation

POSTER

Abstract

A deterministic quantum mechanics theory was introduced in two parts Physics of Fluids 37(8), 086123, 086124, 2025 without conflicting with mainstream probabilistic quantum theory. Plausible and realistic interpretations for intrinsic quantum spin, quantum jump, non-“spooky” quantum entanglement, wave function collapse, and quantum tunneling were presented. In addition, the meaning of wave-particle duality was revealed and the possibility of a quantum particle, like an electron, to cross the nucleus as it does when the angular momentum of the electron is zero at the ground state of the hydrogen atom was also demonstrated. It is consistent with both classical physics principles as well as the probabilistic quantum theory. The current paper shows that while a rigid body electron cannot be an acceptable option because of either it violates special relativity, or it violates a fundamental property of reality, i.e. that two objects cannot occupy the same region of space at the same time (co-locality), a compressible fluid electron does comply with classical physics principles and reality. The current paper highlights specific results and solutions that are consistent with classical deterministic methods, as well as probabilistic ones.
