Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography

In summary, the conversation discusses a search for an article on Interaction Free Measurement and Measurement Theory, specifically John Archibald Wheeler's chapter in a book titled Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Theory. The individual is unable to find the chapter online and suggests checking a local academic library or using inter-library loan services to obtain the book.

Hi, I'm in desperate search of an article related to Interaction Free Measuremnt and Measurement Theory:

John Archibald Wheeler, "The 'Past' and the 'Delayed-Choice Double-Slit Experiment'," pp 9–48, in A.R. Marlow, editor, Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Theory, Academic Press (1978)

It's so strange, because it's cited all along the bilbiography. Anybody can help?

If you are really desperate, the book is available on bookfinder.com and Amazon. An inter-library loan would be more economical but would take longer.
 

Related to Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography

What is Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography?

Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography is a collection of works and research conducted by physicist John Archibald Wheeler on the concept of delayed choice in quantum mechanics.

What is delayed choice in quantum mechanics?

Delayed choice is a thought experiment that challenges the traditional understanding of causality in quantum mechanics. It proposes that the measurement of a particle's properties can be influenced by the observer's choice of measurement technique after the particle has already passed through the measuring device.

Why is Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography important?

Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography is important because it provides a comprehensive overview of the research and theories surrounding the concept of delayed choice in quantum mechanics. It also highlights the ongoing debate and discussion among scientists on the nature of reality and the role of the observer in quantum systems.

What are some key works included in Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography?

Some key works included in Wheeler's Delayed Choice bibliography are "The Quantum Theory of Measurement" by John Archibald Wheeler and Wojciech H. Zurek, "Wheeler's Delayed Choice Experiment" by R. E. Kastner, and "Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser" by Marlan O. Scully and Kai Drühl.

How does the concept of delayed choice impact our understanding of the universe?

The concept of delayed choice challenges our traditional understanding of causality and suggests that the observer's actions can influence the behavior of particles in the past. This has profound implications for our understanding of the universe and the role of consciousness in shaping reality.
