Possible agreement of wave function reduction from the basic principles of quantum mechanics

TL;DR

This paper suggests that wave function reduction can arise naturally from quantum mechanics principles without requiring additional postulates, emphasizing macroscopic object interactions and a new view on quantum probabilities.

Contribution

It introduces a novel explanation for wave function reduction based on basic quantum principles, avoiding the need for state branching.

Findings

Reduction can result from quantum principles without universe state branching

Macroscopic object interactions create conditions for wave function collapse

Quantum probabilities are reinterpreted without absolute randomness

Abstract

Reduction is shown to be a possible consequence of the basic principles of quantum mechanics, involving no branching of the quantum state of the universe. The key feature of a measurement is attributed to the creation of macroscopic germs of ionized tracks, bubbles, sparks and so on, in a superposed quantum state, the main mechanism being a breaking and a restoration of ``classicality'' in nearby macroscopic objects and their small patterns. A new significance of quantum probabilities, involving no absolute randomness, is also proposed.
