Quantum Physics Without Quantum Rules?
Researchers at MIT have proposed a method to reproduce quantum mechanics using only classical principles. By extending the principle of least action to include fluid-like density and multiple paths, they recover the exact results of the Schrödinger equation.
Phenomena like tunneling and the double-slit experiment emerge naturally from this framework, not as fundamentally “quantum” oddities. The result points to a deeper unity between classical and quantum physics—suggesting that the microscopic world may be less mysterious, and more continuous with familiar laws, than previously thought.
