The basis of indeterminism

Abstract

We show that the instant motion of particle should be essentially discontinuous and random. This gives the logical basis of indeterminism.

The basis of discontinuous motion

Rui Qi

We show that the instant motion of particle should be essentially discontinuous and random. This gives the logical basis of discontinuous motion. Since what quantum mechanics describes is the discontinuous motion of particles, this may also answer the question 'why the quantum?'.

Indeterminism and Randomness Through Physics

Karl Svozil

Despite provable unknowables in recursion theory, indeterminism and randomness in physics is confined to conventions, subjective beliefs and preliminary evidence. The history of the issue is very briefly reviewed, and answers to five questions raised by Hector Zenil are presented.

Quantum mechanics and discontinuous motion of particles

Shan Gao

We discuss a new realistic interpretation of quantum mechanics based on discontinuous motion of particles. The historical and logical basis of discontinuous motion of particles is given. It proves that if there exists only one kind of physical reality---particles, then the realistic motion of particles described by quantum mechanics should be discontinuous motion. We further denote that protective measurement may provide a direct method to confirm the existence of discontinuous motion of particles.
