# A spacetime ontology compatible with quantum mechanics

## TL;DR

This paper proposes a spacetime ontology that aligns quantum mechanics with classical physics by interpreting quantum phenomena as involving familiar entities in 3D space, maintaining Lorentz covariance.

## Contribution

It introduces a new ontology that interprets quantum mechanics using classical entities in 3D space, avoiding speculative frameworks like configuration space.

## Key findings

- Quantum mechanics can be interpreted with classical entities in 3D space.
- Lorentz covariance is preserved in the proposed ontology.
- The approach avoids unnecessary speculative assumptions.

## Abstract

The ontology proposed in this paper is aimed at demonstrating that it is possible to understand the counter-intuitive predictions of quantum mechanics while still retaining much of the framework underlying classical physics, the implication being that it is better to avoid wandering into unnecessarily speculative realms without the support of conclusive evidence. In particular, it is argued that it is possible to interpret quantum mechanics as simply describing an external world consisting of familiar physical entities (e.g., particles or fields) residing in classical 3-dimensional space (not configuration space) with Lorentz covariance maintained.
