Description

A system constituted by a particle submitted, on the one hand, to a deterministic force, on the other, to the electromagnetic damping force and to very brief electromagnetic bursts arising from the radiation of the other systems of the universe, exhibits a quasi-ergodic behavior, very analogous to that which quantum mechanics foresees when the deterministic force acts alone. In particular, the Heisenberg relationship and the Schroedinger equation are found again. But the values of the various observables fluctuate, which corresponds to a quantum-like formalism where the operators are completely symmetrized with respect to q and p, the obtained values being the average values on sufficiently long time intervals. Spin appears at the relativistic level as an eigen kinetic momentum attached to the particle. The Bell inequality is replaced by a weaker one which is never violated, so that the non local character assigned to the orthodox quantum mechanics is vanishing. The problem of the dual nature of particles is discussed
