Abstract


Heisenberg's Epistemological Omission

Evert Jan Post
Year: 1988
Keywords: Copenhagen ensemble, uncertainty

It is not possible to break out of the Copenhagen impasse with its limitations of indeterminacy unless the existing quantum formalism is identified and accepted as a description of an ensemble of single systems. The existence of, and need for an improved and more detailed pre-Copenhagen quantum mechanics is then implied. The present note is an assessment of fundamentals without undue technicalities.
