ALine Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 Ok so I remember asking this a while back in speculation, however, I never got a response so I am posting it here because the reason why I posted in speculation was that I did not think it was fully physics related. So my question is again, are our models of reality based on probability because we cannot observe the universe at certain scales due the things that we need to observe messing up measurements like light and atom particles. Or is it the other way around? Being that we cannot observe things at such small scales because of the probability and uncertainty of the universe as a whole?
Markus Hanke Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 The stochastics and uncertainties of quantum physics are intrinsic to its nature, they are not just an artefact of our observational methods.
quiet Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 Hello Markus. The news says that the discussion, in this matter, is slowly being replaced by consensus. In my case, insufficiency of knowledge makes it impossible to find in this consensus something conceptually clear. Any description in didactic style would help me.

Apologies, I am unsure what you mean by this. What is your question?

The news says that theorists have reached a consensus regarding the interpretation of the foundations of quantum theory. I have tried, without success, to find some serious dissemination article, to help me understand that consensus.
