The Emerging Quantum The Physics Behind Quantum Mechanics / by Luis de la Peña, Ana María Cetto, Andrea Valdés Hernández.

This monograph presents the latest findings from a long-term research project intended to identify the physics behind Quantum Mechanics. A fundamental theory for quantum mechanics is constructed from first physical principles, revealing quantization as an emergent phenomenon arising from a deeper st...
