Demystifier's latest activity
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.You mean a local hidden-variable theory cannot reproduce all of QM's predictions. A non-local hidden-variable theory can. -
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.I'm not an experimentalist, but here is a brief sketch. I wouldn't use a trap with forces, I would use a free radioactive particle in an...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.See my post #39.
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Fine, but what if we isolate one atom out of the crystal? It should not be too difficult to perform an experiment in which a box...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Fine, but you can think of toss as internal environment. (For the notion of internal environment in QM see e.g. my...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Yes, but my point was that if you don't know or control the details of the environment, then the probability remains 1/2. And this...

Demystifier reacted to PeroK's post in the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations with
Like.
Okay. Let me read your paper. I'm just up the road from you, climbing mountains in Slovenia for the past couple of weeks. -
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.One should distinguish determination of probability from explanation of randomness. In pure math, the Kolmogorov axioms say how to...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.I have addressed this in post #25. In item 1. I gave a reference where your question is answered in more detail and in item 3. I gave an...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Sometimes I think of consistent histories not as one interpretation, but as an infinite class of interpretations, where each framework...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.But that's how the whole of physics, and indeed, the whole of science, is organized, into layers. Just one example: Fluids are made of...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.And this is exactly what you can do, by the quantum Zeno effect.
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.@PeroK 1. In the paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.07575 Sec. 4.3 I have explained why the decay does not depend on details of the...
-
Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.I don't understand your logic. Sure, a human cannot know everything there is to know about the cat and the apparatus. But just because a...

Demystifier replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.If you agree that isolated atom evolves deterministically, then non-determinism must be associated with interaction with the...
