Frasi di Gerardus 't Hooft

Gerardus 't Hooft [xeːrɑrt ət hoːft] è un fisico olandese, premio Nobel per la fisica nel 1999.

Insegna fisica teorica all'Università di Utrecht nei Paesi Bassi. Il premio Nobel gli fu assegnato, con Martinus J. G. Veltman, per "aver spiegato la struttura quantistica dell'interazione elettrodebole".

Gli è stato intitolato l'asteroide 9491 Thooft, di cui ha scritto una costituzione per i futuri abitanti. Ha vinto la medaglia Lorentz nel 1986. Il suo prozio Frits Zernike fu premio Nobel per la fisica. Il cognome 't Hooft significa "la testa" .

Gerardus 't Hooft: Frasi in inglese

“The usual no-go theorems telling us that hidden variables are irreconcilable with locality, appear to start with fairly conventional pictures of particle systems, detectors, space and time.”

Gerardus 't Hooft

Obstacles on the Way toward the Quantization of Space, Time and Matter — and possible resolutions — http://www.staff.science.uu.nl/~hooft101/gthpub/foundations.pdf <br class="br">Contesto: The usual no-go theorems telling us that hidden variables are irreconcilable with locality, appear to start with fairly conventional pictures of particle systems, detectors, space and time. Usually, it is taken for granted that events at one place in the universe can be described independently from what happens elsewhere. Perhaps one has to search for descriptions where the situation is more complex. Maybe, it needs not be half as complex as superstring theory itself. The conventional Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics suffices to answer all practical questions concerning conventional experiments with quantum mechanics, and the outcome of experiments such as that of Aspect et al can be precisely predicted by conventional quantum mechanics. This is used by some to state that no additional interpretation prescriptions for quantum mechanics are necessary. Yet we insist that the axioms for any &quot;complete&quot; quantum theory for the entire cosmos would present us with as yet unresolved paradoxes.

“This is used by some to state that no additional interpretation prescriptions for quantum mechanics are necessary. Yet we insist that the axioms for any "complete" quantum theory for the entire cosmos would present us with as yet unresolved paradoxes.”

“Quantum mechanics as it stands would be perfect if we didn't have the quantum-gravity issue and a few other very deep fundamental problems.”
