Intrinsic Unsharpness and Approximate Repeatability of Quantum Measurements
The intrinsic unsharpness of a quantum observable is studied by introducing the notion of resolution width. This quantification of accuracy is shown to be closely connected with the possibility of making approximately repeatable measurements. As a case study, the intrinsic unsharpness and approximate repeatability of position and momentum measurements are examined in detail.
متن کاملModality, Potentiality and Contradiction in Quantum Mechanics
In [9], Newton da Costa together with the author of this paper argued in favor of the possibility to consider quantum superpositions in terms of a paraconsistent approach. We claimed that, even though most interpretations of quantum mechanics (QM) attempt to escape contradictions, there are many hints that indicate it could be worth while to engage in a research of this kind. Recently, Arenhart...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics as Reality or Potentiality from A Psycho-Biological Perspective
Quantum mechanics are generally interpreted as physical reality with superposition of wave functions, which have to collapse to observable reality. From a psycho-biological perspective, it could also be interpreted as superposition in the mental representation of reality, which corresponds to imagined potentiality and is naturally replaced by reality, when it becomes observable. The interpretat...
متن کاملPotentiality and Contradiction in Quantum Mechanics
Following J.-Y.Béziau in his pioneer work on non-standard interpretations of the traditional square of opposition, we have applied the abstract structure of the square to study the relation of opposition between states in superposition in orthodox quantum mechanics in [1]. Our conclusion was that such states are contraries (i.e. both can be false, but both cannot be true), contradicting previou...
متن کاملNonseparability, Potentiality and the Context-dependence of Quantum Objects
ion of their entangled correlations with the chosen context of investigation. Thus, the resulting contextual object is the quantum object exhibiting a particular property with respect to a certain experimental situation. The contextual character of property-ascription implies, however, that a state-dependent property of a quantum object is not a welldefined property that has been possessed prio...
