Demystifier reacted to Sambuco's post in the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox with
Informative.
Since I don't think anyone has mentioned it before, I'm sharing this paper where Del Rio and Renner respond to Polychronakos' work. Lucas. -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.Since RQM is inspired by relativity, let me use an analogy with black holes in general relativity. From the point of view of some... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.I agree it's hard, it takes some effort to see it this way. But they all have in common one crucial thing: There is never a collapse in... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.No. See my post #39 in which I explain how all interpretations say essentially the same, but in a different way. -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.Ok, now your point of view is clear, and it's a perfectly legitimate point of view. But it is also legitimate to take the opposite point... -
Demystifier reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox with
Informative.
But B also has to be entangled with things outside of F's body--the information about what B observed has to come from somewhere. So... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.Let me make some side remarks on decoherence. That's why, in actual experiments, systems are cooled down close to absolute zero, so... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.Yes he has, that's my main point. The brain B has observed a definite outcome, because B decohered due to interaction and entanglement... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.I don't think that the notion of "actual" decoherence makes sense. To explain what I mean, let us model the friend F as F=B+R, where B... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.In the context of Wigner type experiments, decoherence is not reversed during some time during which the friend thinks "I have observed... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.No. The interpretations that I discuss in the post explain why there is no contradiction. If you don't see how the contradiction is... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.@PeterDonis I don't think that any of this what you mentioned is essential. 1. The entanglement with the particle with spin doesn't... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.What do you mean by "I", and what do you mean by "many worlds"? The F does not see that F lives in a superposition. Only W can see that... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Graduate Resolution of the Frauchiger-Renner paradox.I believe I understand now the Wigner friend type experiments very well. It's really much simpler than usually presented in the... -
Demystifier replied to the thread Undergrad Was Richard Feynman's explanation of the twin paradox wrong?.I have written a paper on the role of acceleration in the twin paradox. In short, acceleration is not essential, but still there is a...
