Applied Bohmian Mechanics

Understand

Bohmian mechanics provides an explanation of quantum phenomena in terms of point particles guided by wave functions.

• This review focuses on the formalism of non-relativistic Bohmian mechanics, rather than its interpretation.
• Although the Bohmian and standard quantum theories have different formalisms, both give exactly the same predictions for all phenomena.
• Fifteen years ago, the quantum chemistry community began to study the practical usefulness of Bohmian mechanics.
