Maximum Shannon Entropy, Minimum Fisher Information, and an Elementary Game

TL;DR: The result demonstrates the merits of Fisher information, and the demerits of Shannon entropy, in treating some fundamental quantum problems, and provides a quantitative example in support of a general philosophy: Nature intends to hide Fisher information while obeying some simple rules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inelastic neutron scattering from classical systems

TL;DR: The scattering law for inelastic neutron scattering from classical systems is derived by treating the wavefunctions of the scattering system in the stationary phase approximation and taking the classical limit of the Wigner phase space distribution function as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theory of Magnetic Rotation Spectra

TL;DR: In this article, a general theory is developed for optical and magneto-optical rotation in the case of resonance, that is, if the frequency v of the primary light is equal to an absorption frequency vk of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-photon interference with two independent pseudothermal sources

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the observation of two-photon interference with independent pseudothermal sources in which subwavelength interference is observed, and describe the phenomenon in terms of optical transfer functions and the classical statistical distribution of the two sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the role of different spin bases within spin-coupled theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the essential role played by different bases of spin eigenfunctions within spin-coupled theory is reviewed and efficient methods are described for transforming a given set of spin coupled coefficients between the Kotani, the Rumer and the Serber bases.
