论文摘要
对量子力学的理解的这一综述在范围上是广泛的,旨在反映足够的文献来代表当前受试者的状态。为了提高清晰度,主要发现以相干综合综合来源的形式提出。该评论突出了量子力学的核心特征。一个是相同准备的系统集合的集体响应中对不同测量类型的集体响应的统计平衡。另一个是状态是在各种情况下与系统集合有关的未来事件的规定概率方面的数学术语。然后,这些特征就纠缠,测量和广泛讨论的实验和分析产生了有用的见解。综述结束时考虑了如何通过理解量子力学的一些特定方法来支持,说明和开发这些见解。该评论精确地使用非数学语言(定义)和严格(一致的含义),仅使用这种语言。与量子力学相比,对独立现实更具描述性的理论可能是可能的。追求这种理论的一步是就如何理解量子力学达成更大的共识。这篇评论旨在为达成更高的共识,以及这一追求做出贡献。
This review, of the understanding of quantum mechanics, is broad in scope, and aims to reflect enough of the literature to be representative of the current state of the subject. To enhance clarity, the main findings are presented in the form of a coherent synthesis of the reviewed sources. The review highlights core characteristics of quantum mechanics. One is statistical balance in the collective response of an ensemble of identically prepared systems, to differing measurement types. Another is that states are mathematical terms prescribing probability aspects of future events, relating to an ensemble of systems, in various situations. These characteristics then yield helpful insights on entanglement, measurement, and widely-discussed experiments and analyses. The review concludes by considering how these insights are supported, illustrated and developed by some specific approaches to understanding quantum mechanics. The review uses non-mathematical language precisely (terms defined) and rigorously (consistent meanings), and uses only such language. A theory more descriptive of independent reality than is quantum mechanics may yet be possible. One step in the pursuit of such a theory is to reach greater consensus on how to understand quantum mechanics. This review aims to contribute to achieving that greater consensus, and so to that pursuit.
