Summary

A simple postulate concerning state reduction is shown to allow for an objective interpretation of quantum mechanics and aconsistent explanation of 1) quantum interference, 2) the fact that macrosystems do not appear to exist in superpositions of states and 3) quantum measurement.

Riassunto

Si mette in luce come un semplice postulato riguardante la riduzione degli stati permetta un'interpretazione obiettiva della meccanica quantistica e una spiegazione consistente 1) dell'interferenza quantica, 2) del fatto che non sembrano esistere sistemi macroscopici nelle sovrapposizioni di stati e 3) del processo quantico di misura.

Резюме

Показывается, что простой постулат, касающийся преобразования состояний, дает объективную интерпретацию квантовой механики и непротиворечивое овьяснение 1) квантовой интерференции, 2) того факта, что макро-система, по-видимому, не существует в суперпозиции состояний, и 3) квантового измерения.
