The essay examines the probability Heidegger's philosophy offers for interpreting quantum mechanical theories. The idea of "Dasein" in Heidegger's philosophy is compared with quantum theory to support the assertion of measurement as reality in quantum mechanics. The essay examines the non-transparency of quantum physics and applies Heidegger's philosophy to explain the unconventional quantum theories under this nature. The retrocausality theory in quantum physics is connected with Heidegger's theory of time, his tripartite framework of states of being and their interconnection in his philosophy. The lack of free will is demonstrated in both Heidegger philosophy and quantum mechanics by drawing comparisons between the "Thrownness" of "Dasein" into the world and the superdeterminism hypothesis of quantum physics. This essay increases the scope for using Heidegger's philosophy to comprehend quantum physics.

This paper discusses the natural science philosophy outlook of Bohr and Heisenberg, two most outstanding representative personers of quantum theory philosophy thought. It analysises and researches into Bohr's quantum dialectics of nature of mutual complement and Heisenberg's quantum philosophy outlook. In terms of these discussions and researches, it gets a deeper and more systematic comgnition and comprehension to quantum theory philosophy thought.
