The de Broglie–Bohm sdBBd formalism of quantum mechanics f1–3g was initially proposed by Louis de Broglie in 1926, and finally formulated, in mathematical terms, by David Bohm in 1952. Since then, all attempts to prove a measurable difference with the Copenhagen interpretation, named here standard quantum mechanics sSQMd, have been unfruitful f1–3g. In a recent article f4g, experimental data fo...

We investigate the influence that classical dynamics has on interference patterns in coherence experiments. We calculate the time-integrated probability current through an absorbing screen and the conductance through a doubly connected ballistic cavity, both in an Aharonov-Bohm geometry with forward scattering only. We show how interference fringes in the probability current generically disappe...

hapax legomenon (pl. hapax legomena; sometimes abbreviated to hapax, pl. hapaxes), is a word that occurs only once within a context, either in the written record of an entire language, in the works of an author, or in a single text. the related terms, dis legomenon, tris legomenon, and tetrakis legomenon respectively refer to double, triple, or quadruple occurrences, but are far less commonly u...

The impact of a suggestion for posthypnotic amnesia on material learned either before or during hypnosis was investigated across 2 experiments. In Experiment 1, very high, high, and low hypnotizable participants learned a word list either before or immediately after a hypnotic induction. During hypnosis, participants were given a suggestion for posthypnotic amnesia for the word list. After hypn...
