Resumen:

A new way of arriving at the quantum formalism is presented, based on the recognition of the reality of the random zero-point radiation field (ZPF). The quantization of both matter and radiation field is shown to emerge as a result of the permanent interaction of matter with the ZPF. Quantum mechanics is obtained both in its Schrödinger and its Heisenberg version, under certain welldefined conditions and approximations. The theory provides for an explanation of the origin of entanglement. Further, the same physical elements and hypotheses allow us to cross the doorway and go beyond quantum mechanics, to the realm of (nonrelativistic) quantum electrodynamics. © 2015 by World Scientific Publishing Co.
