Is there a view in quantummechanics, of quantummechanics, without time as a concept?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
No.

Indeed, even those who claim that time does not exist at the fundamental level, still try to explain how effective time emerges at an effective level.

Why? Just asking about the motivation of the question.

I am thinking some things over in which timelessness could explain some things. For example retrocausality.

Well, that clarifies somethings about things.

Yes, I can't tell you much because they are not purely physics nor is it decently worked out. Kind'a crackpot. 🤪 But everyone many thanks for answering!

Since there is no retrocausality in physics (neither in classical nor quantum) your don't need to bother to think about QT without time. :oldbiggrin:
 
I heard somewhere sometime that some QM theories have no time. But now I think of it, that seems a bit silly because it obviously does exist in some way.
