On the interpretation of measurement in quantum theory
Foundations of Physics 1 (1):69-76 (1970)
Abstract
It is demonstrated that neither the arguments leading to inconsistencies in the description of quantum-mechanical measurement nor those “explaining” the process of measurement by means of thermodynamical statistics are valid. Instead, it is argued that the probability interpretation is compatible with an objective interpretation of the wave functionMy notes
