Abstract
Despite all negative accounts in many popular and
superficial discussions of quantum theory, causal
and realistic interpretations of the quantum
mechanical formalism can be demonstrated to work
perfectly well. They accept nonlocality as a
well-established fact and mostly consider a
quantum system as analyzable into a local
particlelike nonlinearity of a generally nonlocal
wavelike mode of some subquantum structure of the
vacuum (`Dirac ether'). In this view, a particle
can be considered as being guided along one
specific route by the (generally nonlocal)
configurations of superimposed waves, which spread
along all possible paths of an experimental setup.
Moreover, in the approach of quantum cybernetics,
an additional focus is on the fact that the energy
and momentum of a particle also determine the wave
behavior. Thus, waves and particles are mutually
and self-consistently defined, and quantum
cybernetics puts particular emphasis on the
circular relationship - mediated by plane waves -
between a quantum system and its macroscopically
defined boundary conditions. To show how firmly
rooted this picture is in the orthodox quantum
theory, an example is discussed here on the basis
of the standard formalism that makes a systemic
approach called for. |
