Description

Explore a profound perspective on quantum physics with The Modal Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. Part of The Western Ontario Series in Philosophy of Science (60), this volume offers a deep look into how the standard mathematical framework of quantum mechanics specifies the physical magnitudes of a system. This text explains how these magnitudes possess definite values, with probabilities assigned to the possible values they may adopt. Unlike interpretations focused on measurement results, the modal interpretation focuses on physical properties, adhering to the principles of scientific realism. A significant advantage of this approach is its ability to address and dissolve the notorious measurement problem. This collection of papers, accompanied by an introduction, provides a rigorous study for those interested in the philosophy of science and the foundational structures of quantum theory.

Key Features

Provides a solution to the measurement problem through the application of modal interpretation principles.

Explains how mathematical frameworks specify physical magnitudes that have definite values.

Part of the professional Western Ontario Series in Philosophy of Science, volume 60.
