You can't throw an electric field at your head either, yet, according to Wigner's no-interaction theorem, it must actually exist... -

Put in an extreme instrumental form, I think "The ultimate test for a model is the agreement of its predictions with experiments"... -
Jjavisot replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.I see the same problems as you; the reasonable thing to do is assume they exist without needing to measure (the electron exists between...

How can you measure something that doesn't exist? Would two non-existent electrons be different from one non-existent electron? If... -
Jjavisot replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.-The value of a measurement exists without needing to measure it. -The value of a measurement does not exist until we measure it...

If you read Ballentine, he uses two axioms - the operator eigenvalue axiom and the Born Rule. Gleason links the two, leaving just one... -
Jjavisot replied to the thread Undergrad One does not “prove” the basic principles of Quantum Mechanics.I don't understand that point. A function is a mathematical object (a very interesting one). The wave function is also a mathematical...
