Collapse of the Wave Function: Models, Ontology, Origin, and Implications
Shan Gao (ed.)
New York, NY: Cambridge University Press (2018)
Abstract
An overview of the collapse theories of quantum mechanics. Written by distinguished physicists and philosophers of physics, it discusses the origin and implications of wave-function collapse, the controversies around collapse models and their ontologies, and new arguments for the reality of wave function collapse.Author's Profile
