From the measurement problem to the primitive ontology programme
arXiv:1907.11058 · doi:10.1007/978-3-030-46777-7_8
Abstract
The paper retraces the development from the measurement problem to the primitive ontology programme. It assesses the contribution of the GRW theory to this programme and discusses the pros and cons of the GRWm matter density ontology and the GRWf flash ontology in comparison to the Bohmian particle ontology. It thereby pursues the evaluation of the proposals for a primitive ontology of quantum physics.
