Thanks BrianI am trying to wade through England’s paper on self-replication.It is all classical so it is incomplete. He really cannot succeed using only classical physics.He needs to extend his theory to the Bohm interpretation including the quantum potential Q with entanglement effects."Applied Bohmian MechanicsAlbert Benseny1, Guillem Albareda2, Angel S.

Bohmian mechanics provides an explanation of quantum phenomena in terms of point-like particlesguided by wave functions. This review focuses on the use of nonrelativistic Bohmian mechanics toaddress practical problems, rather than on its interpretation. Although the Bohmian and standard quantumtheories have different formalisms, both give exactly the same predictions for all phenomena. Fifteen yearsago, the quantum chemistry community began to study the practical usefulness of Bohmian mechanics.Since then, the scientific community has mainly applied it to study the (unitary) evolution of single-particlewave functions, either by developing efficient quantum trajectory algorithms or by providing a trajectory-basedexplanation of complicated quantum phenomena. Here we present a large list of examples showinghow the Bohmian formalism provides a useful solution in different forefront research fields for this kindof problems (where the Bohmian and the quantum hydrodynamic formalisms coincide). In addition, thiswork also emphasizes that the Bohmian formalism can be a useful tool in other types of (nonunitaryand nonlinear) quantum problems where the influence of the environment or the nonsimulated degrees offreedom are relevant. This review contains also examples on the use of the Bohmian formalism for themany-body problem, decoherence and measurement processes. The ability of the Bohmian formalism toanalyze this last type of problems for (open) quantum systems remains mainly unexplored by the scientificcommunity. The authors of this review are convinced that the nal status of the Bohmian theory amongthe scientific community will be greatly influenced by its potential success in those types of problems thatpresent nonunitary and/or nonlinear quantum evolutions. A brief introduction of the Bohmian formalismand some of its extensions are presented in the last part of this review."However, I hope some of his basic organizing ideas for open steady state dissipative structures relating entropy production to forward and backward transition rates continue to hold in the quantum regime - especially using Rod Sutherland’s new approach to Bohm’s 1952 pilot wave theory.Search Results

please send his real papers if you find them
I think I’ve come across some of the details. Meanwhile my own gloss on this is provisionally described at arxiv:1506.06774, but I’m currently integrating it with the ideas of Hankey, at http://philpapers.org/rec/HANCBI-3.
