PeroK reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations with
Like.
I don't think this is true. I believe robotic machines have been developed which can flip coins such that one side is more likely to... -
PeroK reacted to jhonconnor's post in the thread I Why is there such a difference between the total cross-section data? (simulation vs. experiment) with Like.
Well, I'm simulating a neutron-proton scattering phase shift. The equation that I solve numerically is the Phase function method and is...

Informative.
Well, I found that it's due the contribution of other states. In other words, for energies below 1 MeV, ##^3\mathrm{S}_1## and... -
PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Okay. Let me read your paper. I'm just up the road from you, climbing mountains in Slovenia for the past couple of weeks.

PeroK reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations with Informative.
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...

PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.I'm not saying it's impossible. But, if the state of the detector is irrelevant, then the Born rule makes sense. Only the state of the...
-
PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.I understand your point. Let's assume you are correct. The detector has trillions of possible states, but these neatly divide into two...

PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.To change the subject slightly. I remember learning about neutrino oscillations and thinking what a beautiful, simple model. The...

PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.It's true, those ideas complicate the picture. But, even in that case, the probabilities can be understood through the evolution of the...

PeroK reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations with Informative.
You can--by creating an environment where the quantum states of the decay products are already occupied, or partially occupied. (And for...
-
PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.The difference is that we do know everything about the state of the atom and its decay rate. And that is sufficient to explain the...
-
PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.The precise details of the uncertainty are encoded in the atomic state. In the weighing/probability amplitude associated with the decay...

PeroK reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations with
Skeptical.
If you agree that isolated atom evolves deterministically, then non-determinism must be associated with interaction with the... -
PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.PS we could illustrate the point by borrowing Schrodinger's cat. After each run of the experiment, the cat is either alive or dead...

PeroK replied to the thread I Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.Take a number of radioactive atoms as an example. If each atom is identical, then they should all decay at the same time - if the decay...
