Quantum mechanics emerging from stochastic dynamics of virtual particles

TL;DR

This paper proposes that quantum mechanics can be derived from the stochastic behavior of virtual particles, linking quantum correlations to classical stochastic dynamics and providing new physical insights into quantum theory.

Contribution

It introduces a novel perspective that quantum phenomena emerge from stochastic dynamics of virtual particles, connecting quantum correlations to classical stochastic processes.

Findings

Quantum Moyal equation relates to correlations between real particle momentum and virtual particle position.

Quantum theory's physical meaning is clarified through the concept of second-second cross-cumulant.

Planck constant squared is interpreted as a second-second cross-cumulant in this framework.

Abstract

It is demonstrated how quantum mechanics emerges from the stochastic dynamics of force-carriers. It is shown that the quantum Moyal equation corresponds to some dynamic correlations between the momentum of a real particle and the position of a virtual particle, which are not present in classical mechanics. The new concept throws light on the physical meaning of quantum theory, showing that the Planck constant square is a second-second cross-cumulant.
