A Modal Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

1981
Why is quantum logic not classical? In what sense is quantum theory indeterministic? How are mixed states related to pure states? What happens to measurement?

The Statistical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1970
The Statistical Interpretation of quantum theory is formulated for the purpose of providing a sound interpretation using a minimum of assumptions. Several arguments are advanced in favor of considering the quantum state description to apply only to an ensemble of similarily prepared systems, rather than supposing, as is often done, that it exhaustively

Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

1983
The conceptual problems generated by the generally accepted interpretation of quantum mechanics overshadow in philosophical depth those generated by the older quantum theory (see for example the collections of basic papers edited by ter Haar, 1967, and Kangro, 1972) to such an extent that one is likely to forget the latter.

Quantum mechanics, interpretation of

2018
Quantum mechanics developed in the early part of the twentieth century in response to the discovery that energy is quantized, that is, comes in discrete units. At the microscopic level this leads to odd phenomena: light displays particle-like characteristics and particles such as electrons produce wave-like interference patterns.

Consistent interpretation of quantum mechanics using quantum trajectories

Physical Review Letters, 1993
Summary: The probabilistic element of quantum theory can be combined with the unitary time evolution of Schrödinger's equation in a natural and consistent way using the idea of a quantum trajectory, the quantum analog of the trajectory traced out in phase space as a function of time by a point representing the state of a closed classical system.

The Causal Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Physical Review, 1953
In connection with the discussion given in a previous note, a classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation associated with the Schr\"odinger function in momentum space is derived. Certain "extra" terms in this equation are shown to be of quantum-mechanical origin.

Max Born's Statistical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Science, 1982
In the summer of 1926, a statistical element was introduced for the first time in the fundamental laws of physics in two papers by Born. After a brief account of Born's earlier involvements with quantum physics, including his bringing the new mechanics to the United States, the motivation for and contents of Born's two papers are discussed.

Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics

2013
The great importance of quantum mechanics for our current view of the physical world is undisputed. In the previous chapters, we have gotten an idea of how coherent it is as a theory, of how powerful it is in the treatment of various practical issues, from the hydrogen atom to the quantum computer, and what insight it provides into problems that were ...
