• Article: The dynamical role of time in quantum cosmology

  Euan J. Squires
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: Although coordinate invariance requires the wavefunction of the universe to be independent of time, the dynamical role of time, expressed through the Hamiltonian evolution, is important in obtaining a classical world. The process of observation automatically reintroduces time into the theory.

• Article: QDD—a model of quarks and leptons

  Euan J. Squires
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: An economical scheme for composite quarks and leptons is suggested. The basic vector particles of the theory are, like gluons, confined and the intermediate vector bosons are also composites. A possible “reason” for the existence of families emerges.

• Article: On the violation of Lorentz-invariance in deterministic hidden-variable interpretations of quantum theory

  Lucien Hardy, Euan J. Squires
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: It is shown that a very general class of deterministic hidden-variable interpretations of quantum theory must violate Lorentz-invariance.

• Article: On an alleged “proof” of the quantum probability law

  Euan J. Squires
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: We endeavour to show that, contrary to many claims in the literature, it is not possible to deduce the quantum probability rule by considering many copies of a system and using the fact that we get a unique result when a system is in an eigenstate of the measured observable.

• Article: The deuteron in a bag model of hadrons

  Graeme T. Fairley, Euan J. Squires
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: We propose a simple prescription for quantising a six-quark bag. Calculations in one dimension appear to give the right order of magnitude for the effective nucleon-nucleon potential.
