We suggest a new interpretation of Quantum Mechanics, in which the system state vectors are identified with q-instants--new elements of reality that are similar to time instants but can be overlapped with each other. We show that this new interpretation provides a simple and objective solution to the measurement problem, while preserving the general validity of the Schrodinger equation as well as the superposition principle in Quantum Mechanics.
1 Introduction
In spite of the extraordinary practical successes of Quantum Mechanics, the foundations of the theory contain unresolved problems, of which the most commonly cited is the measurement problem. In ...
