One Funny Day by Kate Mcmullan
This conference is one of a series of Vaxjo conferences on the foundations of quantummechanics. The main aim of this conference was to understand the role that probability plays in the foundations of physics, theoretical as well as experimental. It should be emphasized that nowadays the problems of probabilistic foundations are not of purely theoretical interest. These problems play a fundamental role in future development of quantum computing and cryptography. At this conference we were fortunate to have a mixture of outstanding physicists, mathematicians, and even philosophers interested in scientific foundations in attendance. The following problems were discussed: unification of classical and quantum probability theories, EPR-Bohm and theoriginal EPR experiments, Bell's inequality: interpretations of its violation and loopholes, simulation of EPR-Bohm correlations in the local realistic approach, nonlocality, contextual probabilistic models, subjective probability and quantum information, quantum logic, results of recent experiments in quantum information, philosophic foundations of probability and quantum mechanics, model theory, discrete time and dynamicsKate McMullan (www.katemcmullan.com) is a children's novelist who has written over 75 novels. She co-writes the Riddles series for Dial under the pen name Katy Hall, and she writes the Dragon Slayers Academy series for Grosset. Her other popular series include Scholastic's Fluffy books and Hyperion's Myth-O-Mania, and she has authored several award-winning picture books, including I Stink! They have a daughter, two cats, and a dog in their home.
