Description

8. Every measurable physical quantity should be represented by a self-adjoint operator. These operators are part of the axioms of quantum mechanics, though they don't seem to appear in Bohmian mechanics. How does one then describe measurements in Bohmian mechanics?

This series is aimed at answering FAQs about Bohmian mechanics and is mainly intended for students. The text is available at

By Christian Beck, Robert Grummt, Florian Hoffmann, Sören Petrat, and Nicola Vona.
We are grateful to Martin Oelker who played the asking student, and to Nils Hansen and Stephan Kulla who filmed the videos.
