چکیده

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. One discusses the reasons, why this very simple statement has not been proved mathematically for many years. The reason lies in application of the trial and error methods for construction of the quantum mechanics. Application of this method as the main tool of investigation during eighty years generated ”fitting mentality” of all microwold researchers. In this paper we prove a very important theorem, which claims that the wave function may not describe an individual quantum particle. It describes always a statistical ensemble of quantum particles. We shall show, that the action AS for the Schrödinger particle SS (the dynamic system described by the Schrödinger equation) turns into the action AE[Scl] for the statistical ensemble E [Scl] of free classical particles Scl, when the quantum constant ~ → 0. Such a transition is possible only in the case, when the wave function ψ describes a statistical ensemble of quantum particles, but not a single particle. For the free Schrödinger particle SS the action has the form SS : AS [ψ, ψ ] = ∫ { i~ 2 (ψ∗∂0ψ − ∂0ψ ∗ · ψ)− ~ 2

From 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...

On the interpretation of quantum theory – from Copenhagen to the present day

A central feature in the Copenhagen interpretation is the use of classical concepts from the outset. Modern developments show, however, that the emergence of classical properties can be understood within the framework of quantum theory itself, through the process of decoherence. This fact becomes most crucial for the interpretability of quantum cosmology – the application of quantum theory to t...
