Arthur Stanley Eddington Quotes
Each Electron Wants The Whole Of Three-dimensional Space For Its Waves; So Schrodinger Generously Allows Three Dimensions For Each Of Them. For Two Electrons He Requires A Six-dimensional Sub-aether. He Then Successfully Applies His Method On The Same Lines As Before. I Think You Will See Now That Schrodinger Has Given Us What Seemed To Be A Comprehensible Physical Picture Only To Snatch It Away Again. His Sub-aether Does Not Exist In Physical Space; It Is In A 'configuration Space' Imagined By The Mathematician For The Purpose Of Solving His Problems, And Imagined Afresh With Different Numbers Of Dimensions According To The Problem Proposed. It Was Only An Accident That In The Earliest Problems Considered The Configuration Space Had A Close Correspondence With Physical Space, Suggesting Some Degree Of Objective Reality Of The Waves. Schrodinger's Wave Mechanics Is Not A Physical Theory But A Dodge - And A Very Good Dodge Too.
