The foundations of quantum mechanics and the approach to thermodynamic equilibrium
British Journal for the Philosophy of Science 45 (2):669-677 (1994)
| Abstract | It is argued that certain recent advances in the construction of a theory of the collapses of Quantum Mechanical wave functions suggest the possibility of new and improved foundations for statistical mechanics, foundations in which epistemic considerations play no role. | |||||||||
