Mioara Mugur-Schächter

Mioara Mugur-Schächter is a French physicist of Romanian origin, a specialist in quantum physics and epistemology.

Biography

Of Romanian descent, she arrived in France in 1962 from Bucharest. Her PhD thesis - of which the whole content had been elaborated beforehand in Bucharest and sent to Louis de Broglie - contains the first and very elaborated invalidation of von Neumann's famous proof asserting the impossibility of hidden parameters compatible with the quantum mechanical formalism. This work was published in a volume prefaced by Louis de Broglie and published in the collection "Les grands problèmes des sciences", Gauthiers Villars, Paris, 1964.

As a Professor of theoretical physics she founded in 1971, at the University of Reims, France, the Laboratory of Quantum Mechanics and Structures of Information, which she headed until 1997.

Her research concerns the foundations of quantum mechanics, the theory of probabilities and the theory of information.

Since 1984 and up to now she kept developing the "Method of Relativized Conceptualisation", MRC (in French MCR) that stems from the study of the cognitive specificities that led to the formalism of fundamental quantum mechanics. MRC is a formalized and normative epistemology inside the framework of which there arises a deep unification between logic, probabilities, information, and the study of complexities.
