    Got it. Thanks for the clarification.

    Quantum Measurement Problem: Nature of Matter or Nature of Probability?

    thanks for the thoughtful and thorough reply! Just to be clear, then, it is the absence of transformations between pure states that disallows application of classical probability theory? Or, using the example of rolled dice, there are only discrete outcomes -- so no transformations between...

    Quantum Measurement Problem: Nature of Matter or Nature of Probability?

    More likely it is me not getting it, but here goes. I raised the question using "double slit" test results as the basis of the question, but really the question has more to do with probability theory itself. Is there any evidence, or basis in classical probability theory, that probability...

    Quantum Measurement Problem: Nature of Matter or Nature of Probability?

    The objective of this post is to: (i) generate a discussion of whether results of the double-slit experiment address solely the nature of matter, or do the results also address the nature of probability; and (ii) to determine if there have been any comparably structured experiments outside of...
