It is commonly assumed that zero and non-zero photon mass would lead to qualitatively different physics. For example, massless photon has two polarization degrees of freedom, while massive photon at least three. This feature seems counter-intuitive. In this paper we will show that if we change propagator by setting $i epsilon$ (needed to avoid poles) to a finite value, and also introduce it in a way that breaks Lawrentz symmetry, then we would obtain the continuous transition we desire once the speed of the photons is large enough with respect to preferred frame. The two transverse polarization degrees of freedom will be long lived, while longitudinal will be short lived. Their lifetime will be near-zero if $m ll sqrt{epsilon}$, which is where the properties of two circular polarizations arize. The $i epsilon$ corresponds to the intensity of Menskys continuous measurement and the short lifetime of the longitudinal photons can be understood as the conversion of quantum degrees of freedom (photons) into classical ones by the measurement device (thus getting rid of the former). While the classical trajectory of the longitudinal photons does arize, it plays no physical role due to quantum Zeno effect: intuitively, it is similar to an electron being kept at a ground state due to continuous measurement.
In this paper we will show how Menskys model of restricted path integrals can be derived from GRW spontaneous collapse model.
Through a very careful analysis of Diracs 1932 paper on the Lagrangian in Quantum Mechanics as well as the second and third editions of his classic book {it The Principles of Quantum Mechanics}, I show that Diracs contributions to the birth of the pa
Recently we have reported the correct formulation of the hadron formation from the quarks and gluons by using the lattice QCD method at the zero temperature. Similarly we have also reported the correct formulation of the hadron formation from the the
The spin of a free electron is stable but its position is not. Recent quantum information research by G. Svetlichny, J. Tolar, and G. Chadzitaskos have shown that the Feynman emph{position} path integral can be mathematically defined as a product of
We propose an idea of the constrained Feynman amplitude for the scattering of the charged lepton and the virtual W-boson, $l_{beta} + W_{rho} rightarrow l_{alpha} + W_{lambda}$, from which the conventional Pontecorvo oscillation formula of relativist
