Von Neumann-Lueders projection, and its applicability to EPR experiments
Willem M. de Muynck
Notwithstanding it is well known that von Neumann's projection postulate is inapplicable to most realistic measurement procedures, it keeps haunting the foundations of quantum mech…
From Copenhagen to neo-Copenhagen interpretation
Willem M. de Muynck
Positive and negative features of the Copenhagen interpretation are discussed. As positive features can be mentioned its pragmatism and its awareness of the crucial role of measure…
The Copenhagen interpretation, and pragmatism
Willem M. de Muynck
In the past both instrumentalism and empiricism have inspired certain pragmatic elements into the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. The relation of such pragmatisms w…
Towards a Neo-Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
W. M. de Muynck
The Copenhagen interpretation is critically considered. A number of ambiguities, inconsistencies and confusions are discussed. It is argued that it is possible to purge the interpr…
Preparation and measurement: two independent sources of uncertainty in quantum mechanics
Willem M. de Muynck
In the Copenhagen interpretation the Heisenberg uncertainty relation is interpreted as the mathematical expression of the concept of complementarity, quantifying the mutual disturb…
Wigner Distributions and the Joint Measurement of Incompatible Observables
Willem M. de Muynck
A theory of joint nonideal measurement of incompatible observables is used in order to assess the relative merits of quantum tomography and certain measurements of generalized obse…
