The quantum field theory interpretation of quantum mechanics
Alberto C. de la Torre
TL;DR
This paper proposes a quantum field theory-based interpretation of quantum mechanics, viewing particles as extended entities with virtual particle interactions, making quantum phenomena more intuitive.
Contribution
It introduces a novel ontology for quantum mechanics grounded in quantum field theory, emphasizing virtual particles as fundamental entities.
Findings
Provides an intuitive understanding of quantum phenomena
Reframes quantum particles as extended entities with virtual interactions
Aligns quantum mechanics interpretation with quantum field theory formalism
Abstract
It is shown that adopting the \emph{Quantum Field} ---extended entity in space-time build by dynamic appearance propagation and annihilation of virtual particles--- as the primary ontology the astonishing features of quantum mechanics can be rendered intuitive. This interpretation of quantum mechanics follows from the formalism of the most successful theory in physics: quantum field theory.
