Towards a Neo-Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
The Copenhagen interpretation is critically considered. A number of ambiguities, inconsistencies and confusions are discussed. It is argued that it is possible to purge the interpretation so as to obtain a consistent and reasonable way to interpret the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics, which is in agreement with the way this theory is dealt with in experimental practice. In particula...
متن کاملFrom Copenhagen to neo-Copenhagen interpretation
Positive and negative features of the Copenhagen interpretation are discussed. As positive features can be mentioned its pragmatism and its awareness of the crucial role of measurement. However, the main part of the contribution is devoted to the negative features, to wit, its pragmatism (once again), its confounding of preparation and measurement, its classical account of measurement, its comp...
متن کاملComplementarity and the Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
But first we shall briefly discuss the general issue of interpretations of Quantum Mechanics, and briefly describe two interpretations. The discussion assumes some knowledge of the Feynman Double Slit, such as is discussed here; it also assumes some knowledge of Schrödinger's Cat, such as is discussed here. Finally, further discussion of interpretations of Quantum Mechanics can be meaningfully ...
متن کاملIncompatibility of the Copenhagen interpretation with quantum mechanics formalism
It is proved the mathematical theorem, that the wave function describes the statistical ensemble of particles, but not a single particle. Supposition, that the wave function describes a single particle appears to be incompatible with formalism of quantum mechanics. Interest to interpretation of quantum mechanics was very large from the very beginning of the quantum mechanics creation up to now....
متن کاملThe Copenhagen Interpretation: A struggle to relate observation to the mathematical representation of quantum mechanics
Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art! Who alterest all things with thy prying eyes. Why preyest thou thus upon the poet’s heart, Vulture, whose wings are dull realities? How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise, Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies, Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing? Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car? An...
