Decoherence, the measurement problem, and interpretations of quantum mechanics

M Schlosshauer - Reviews of Modern physics, 2004‏ - APS
Environment-induced decoherence and superselection have been a subject of intensive
research over the past two decades, yet their implications for the foundational problems of …

The two-state vector formalism: an updated review

Y Aharonov, L Vaidman - Time in quantum mechanics, 2008‏ - Springer
The two-state vector formalism of quantum mechanics is a time-symmetrized approach to
standard quantum theory particularly helpful for the analysis of experiments performed on …

Quantum theory cannot consistently describe the use of itself

D Frauchiger, R Renner - Nature communications, 2018‏ - nature.com
Quantum theory provides an extremely accurate description of fundamental processes in
physics. It thus seems likely that the theory is applicable beyond the, mostly microscopic …

The quantum-to-classical transition

D Schlosshauer - The Frontiers Collection (Springer-Verlag, 2007), 2007‏ - Springer
Over the course of the past decade, decoherence has become a ubiquitous scienti? c term
popular in all kinds of research, from fundamental theories of quantum physics to …

Relational quantum mechanics

C Rovelli - International journal of theoretical physics, 1996‏ - Springer
I suggest that the common unease with taking quantum mechanics as a fundamental
description of nature (the “measurement problem”) could derive from the use of an incorrect …

Importance of quantum decoherence in brain processes

M Tegmark - Physical review E, 2000‏ - APS
Based on a calculation of neural decoherence rates, we argue that the degrees of freedom
of the human brain that relate to cognitive processes should be thought of as a classical …

[كتاب][B] Making sense of quantum mechanics

J Bricmont - 2016‏ - Springer
This book is both apparently ambitious and modest in its aims. Ambitious, as it attempts to
achieve something that has been declared impossible by some of the greatest physicists …

[HTML][HTML] Many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics

L Vaidman - 2002‏ - plato.stanford.edu
The Many-Worlds Interpretation (MWI) of quantum mechanics holds that there are many
worlds which exist in parallel at the same space and time as our own. The existence of the …

[كتاب][B] Quantum ontology: A guide to the metaphysics of quantum mechanics

PJ Lewis - 2016‏ - books.google.com
Metaphysicians should pay attention to quantum mechanics. Why? Not because it provides
definitive answers to many metaphysical questions-the theory itself is remarkably silent on …

Quantum mechanics as quantum information (and only a little more)

CA Fuchs - arxiv preprint quant-ph/0205039, 2002‏ - arxiv.org
In this paper, I try once again to cause some good-natured trouble. The issue remains, when
will we ever stop burdening the taxpayer with conferences devoted to the quantum …
