Difficulty in detecting deviations from wave-function collapse
Journal Article

· Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
We use the example of a Stern-Gerlach apparatus to show that the quantum-mechanical measurement problem ceases to be a physical problem for a measuring device with many degrees of freedom in the sense that deviations from wave-function collapse become virtually impossible to detect.
