Quantum Clear: Quantum Mechanics Free of Paradoxes

Autor F.J. Duarte
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mar 2026
This book presents quantum mechanics from two of its most fundamental pillars, quantum interference and quantum entanglement. It also explains how to arrive at iconic principles, in a clear and transparent manner.
Quantum Clear: Quantum Mechanics Free of Paradoxes offers a refreshing perspective on quantum mechanics.  Unlike conventional approaches, this book illuminates iconic principles such as Born's rule with remarkable clarity and transparency. What sets it apart from typical quantum science books is its deliberate avoidance of sensationalized vocabulary like "mystery," "strange," "weird," or "paradox" that often clouds understanding. Instead, readers embark on a journey beginning with a comprehensive historical introduction to quantum mechanics and its major developments.
The author methodically dismantles common misconceptions, including:
  • Why the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) argument incorrectly labeled quantum mechanics as an "incomplete" theory
  • The philosophical and physical foundations of quantum entanglement
  • Why the concept of "wave function collapse" is unnecessary when properly understanding quantum interference and entanglement
  • How the so-called "measurement problem" dissolves when viewed through interferometric and entanglement perspectives
The book then transitions to practical applications, explaining quantum communications, computing, cryptography, engineering, and teleportation in accessible language. Readers will glimpse the emerging world where quantum mechanical concepts become integrated into everyday engineering solutions.
Though scientifically rigorous, Quantum Clear speaks to both scientific and general audiences, systematically unraveling the misunderstandings that have surrounded quantum mechanics for decades—offering clarity where confusion once reigned.

Notă biografică

Francisco Javier "Frank" Duarte is a laser physicist and author/editor of several books on tunable lasers and quantum optics. His research on physical optics, quantum optics, and laser development has won several awards. He has made numerous original contributions to tunable lasers, multiple-prism optics, quantum interferometry, and quantum entanglement. Dr. Duarte was elected Fellow of the Australian Institute of Physics in 1987 and Fellow of the Optical Society (Optica) in 1993. He has received the Engineering Excellence Award (1995), for the invention of the N-slit laser interferometer, and the David Richardson Medal (2016) for his seminal contributions to the physics of narrow-linewidth tunable lasers and the theory of multiple-prism arrays for linewidth narrowing and laser pulse compression.

Descriere

Quantum Clear presents quantum mechanics through interference and entanglement without paradoxes. It explains principles like Born's rule clearly, addresses the EPR argument, and shows why wave function collapse is unnecessary. Written for both scientific and general audiences, it demystifies quantum concepts from computing to teleportation.
