Abstract

The political attitude and the ideology of a very small elite of physicists (Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, Max Born and view other) played a major role in the construction of the Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics in the 1920s. Lastly, the hegemonic standard acausal Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics abandoned the principle of causality in quantum mechanics and opened a very wide door to mysticism, logical fallacies and wishful thinking in physics and in science as such. Historically, the Second International Congress for the Unity of Science (Copenhagen, June 21-26, 1936) tried to solve the problem of causality within physics but without a success. Thus far, 80 years after the Second International Congress for the Unity of Science this contribution at the Linnaeus University in 2016 in Vaxjo Sweden will make an end too Bohr's and Heisenberg's dogma of non-causality within quantum mechanics and re-establish the unrestricted validity of the principle of causality at quantum level and under conditions of relativity theory by mathematizing the relationship between cause and effect in the form of the mathematical formula of the causal relationship k. In contrast to Bohr, Heisenberg and other representatives of the Copenhagen interpretation quantum mechanics, a realistic interpretation of quantum theory grounded on the unrestricted validity of the principle of causality will expel any kind of mysticism from physics and enable a quantization of the gravitational field.

Highlights

  • Since ancient times, the principle of causality was generally regarded as the most fundamental of all principles, the demarcation line between science and non-science and our best candidate for a unique and fundamental description of the physical world

  • Heisenberg summarized his findings on the principle of causality in a general conclusion: "... so wird durch die Quantenmechanik die Ungültigkeit des Kausalgesetzes definitiv festgestellt" [1] or in broken English 'quantum mechanics has refuted the principle of causality definitely'

Summary

Introduction

The principle of causality was generally regarded as the most fundamental of all principles, the demarcation line between science and non-science and our best candidate for a unique and fundamental description of the physical world. Heisenberg's himself considered his uncertainty principle to be the new cornerstone of science as such. Heisenberg summarized his findings on the principle of causality in a general conclusion: "... Wird durch die Quantenmechanik die Ungültigkeit des Kausalgesetzes definitiv festgestellt" [1] or in broken English 'quantum mechanics has refuted the principle of causality definitely'. Complementarity" [3] By time, the extraordinary predictive successes of quantum mechanics in power and precision, supported, at least at first glance, more and more Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and the so-called Copenhagen interpretation. Obviously, according to Heisenberg's own conclusion, one striking aspect of a successful mathematization of the relationship between cause and effect at quantum level implies another straightforward refutation of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
