An intrinsic quantum state interpretation of quantum mechanics

摘要

The observation that distantly separated entangled particles exhibit correlations demands a new interpretation of quantum mechanics. In order to avoid a contradiction with relativity regarding the speed of light as a limiting velocity, the individual particles must be regarded as possessing intrinsic, fixed, and complementary quantum states even before an observer performs a measurement. There is no contradiction with quantum mechanics when calculated probabilities are viewed as purely statistical, applicable only to ensembles of identically prepared systems using the law of large numbers.
