On the problem of hidden variables in quantum mechanics

Creators

  • 1. European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva (Switzerland)

Description

The demonstrations of von Neumann and others, that quantum mechanics does not permit a hidden variable interpretation, are reconsidered. It is shown that their essential axioms are unreasonable. It is urged that in further examination of this problem an interesting axiom would be that mutually distant systems are independent of one another. (author)
