bhobba reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Quantum interpretations and indistinguishable elementary particles with
Love.
Then why do you keep bringing up elementary particles? Ballentine? I've read it completely, multiple times. Sure, Ballentine advocates... -
bhobba replied to the thread Undergrad On computing quantum waves exactly from classical action.Some nice papers/videoes here - well worth the time to read/watch. Thanks Bill -
bhobba reacted to Peter Morgan's post in the thread Undergrad On computing quantum waves exactly from classical action with
Like.
Also of interest is an article in MIT News and that someone on 𝕏 pointed out that a preprint by Frank J Tipler is somewhat similar (I... -

That depends on the specific scenario. In some cases you can describe a single elementary particle with a specific wave function and... -

Like.
Not at all. You just need to be clear about what "individual physical system" your wave function is describing. As in the example I gave... -

Indistinguishable particles in two different states, here and there for example, are still indistinguishable. -

IMO the use of real numbers to describe lengths and such in classical physics is any less miraculous than using hermitian operators... -
bhobba replied to the thread Graduate Quantum interpretations and indistinguishable elementary particles.The wave function, and its Born interpretation, in ordinary non-relativistic QM, is simply the consequence of modelling observations as... -

Like.
Generally we don't recommend using AI as a source. The last six words of your post quoted above are a good quick summary of why. -
bhobba reacted to PAllen's post in the thread Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory? with
Like.
Again, you could, in principle, disprove determinism. But, as I have argues above, determinism and block universe are actually... -
bhobba reacted to Dale's post in the thread Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory? with
Like.
I wouldn’t say it was even a new interpretation so much as a new derivation. His main contribution was taking Lorentz aether theory... -
bhobba replied to the thread Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?.I never knew it was that popular, but it certainly is an interpretation, just not to my taste. My interpretation is that it's just the... -

@DarkloidNeos the article you reference, unfortunately, is not just presenting the speculations or opinions of various physicists it...
