The number of areas of scientific and practical activity in which it is necessary to consider relativistic corrections is steadily growing. In many cases, two objects under study move towards one another. This takes place both in relation to astronomical objects and in relation to quantum particles, including in colliders—accelerators of charged particles in colliding beams. With counter relativistic motions, the relative velocity does not coincide with the approach velocity. However, considering relative velocity alone limits the arsenal of research tools and methods. As opposed to relative velocity, which is determined in accordance with the relativistic formula for velocity addition, the approach velocity of unaccelerated objects is defined as the ratio of the distance between them to the time it takes to cover it. The purpose of this work is to analyze the variety of the relativistic approach velocity of objects depending on the choice of inertial reference frames based on the data of the Large Hadron Collider. Results. At the Large Hadron Collider, the approach velocity of protons is almost twice as high as the speed of light in the laboratory reference frame. In frames of reference associated with moving protons, depending on the options of relativistic transformation of segments of lengths and time intervals, the maximum approach velocity of protons is 1.1 × 10⁸<i>с</i>, and the minimum is 1.2 m/s. In accordance with the technique based on the relativistic velocity addition formula, the approach velocity in reference systems associated with moving protons is almost equal to the speed of light. In this case, the approach velocity becomes equal to the relative velocity, which should not be considered as a generalization of the classical mechanics rule on the indistinguishability of these velocities to relativistic mechanics. Practical significance. The results obtained may be of interest in assessing the approach velocities of astronomical objects, including the Earth and asteroids, as well as significantly expand the variability of hypotheses when processing experimental data arrays obtained at elementary particle accelerators, including the Large Hadron Collider.</p>","PeriodicalId":723,"journal":{"name":"Optics and Spectroscopy","volume":"131 12","pages":"1225 - 1230"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140887183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An appropriate description requires taking into consideration various types of interference effects associated with these states. However, the relatively complex apparatus of second quantization of the electromagnetic field is used even in the simplest single-photon experiments equivalent to the Young’s one, e.g., the experiments with the Mach–Zehnder interferometer. In the present work, the Young’s single-photon mental experiment is explained using the coordinate photon wave function (PWF). The explanation is illustrated by specific examples of the single-photon states at certain wavelengths and different duration of radiation within the framework of two approaches: the quantum mechanical and the “quasi-classical.” In the first approach, a 6-component coordinate PWF is constructed based on the spherically symmetric momentum distribution in a wave packet, followed by approximate analytical calculations. In the second approach, a one-component quasi-classical PWF corresponding to the electric-dipole radiation is constructed. The same pronounced interference pattern was obtained in both cases, which makes is possible to draw the conclusion that the coordinate PWF allows explaining the one- and two-photon interference phenomena. This conclusion sheds the light on theoretical interpretation of the measurement of the coordinate PWF carried out in some of the recent experiments.</p>","PeriodicalId":723,"journal":{"name":"Optics and Spectroscopy","volume":"131 11","pages":"1148 - 1156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140887531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
