The Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics

An Interactive Interpretation

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This is one of the most important books on quantum mechanics to have appeared in recent years. It offers a dramatically new interpretation that resolves puzzles and paradoxes associated with the measurement problem and the behavior of coupled systems. A crucial feature of this interpretation is that a quantum mechanical measurement can be certain to have a particular outcome even when the observed system fails to have the property corresponding to that outcome just prior to the measurement interaction.

Table of contents:
Preface; Introduction; 1. Overview; 2. Dynamical states; 3. Measurement and quantum states; 4. Coupled systems; 5. Metaphysical aspects; 6. Alternatives compared; 7. Open questions; Appendix; Selected bibliography; Index.
