Undergrad Strong Force and Wave function collapse

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around the limitations of the strong force in maintaining the binding of complex subatomic structures during wave function collapse in entangled superpositions. Participants express confusion over why the strong force does not continue to operate effectively, allowing particles to remain bound yet unentangled after decoherence. The complexities of quantum mechanics and the behavior of particles in superpositions are highlighted as central issues. The conversation reflects a broader uncertainty within the field regarding the interplay between fundamental forces and quantum states. Overall, the topic raises significant questions about the nature of particle interactions in quantum physics.

Why does STRONG FORCE fail regarding complex structures of sub atomic particles when wave functions collapse @ entangled superpositions. Why does it not continue to function keeping the particles bound yet unentangled with the observed Eigenstate being it was originally binding such particles @ the superpositions prior to Decohersion?

Sorry, but: What?

I'm a particle physicist and I have no idea what you are asking.

Time reversal invariant Hamiltonians must satisfy ##[H,\Theta]=0## where ##\Theta## is time reversal operator. However, in some texts (for example see Many-body Quantum Theory in Condensed Matter Physics an introduction, HENRIK BRUUS and KARSTEN FLENSBERG, Corrected version: 14 January 2016, section 7.1.4) the time reversal invariant condition is introduced as ##H=H^*##. How these two conditions are identical?
