论文摘要

在2000年,在一篇题为“量子理论”的论文中,克里斯·福克斯(Chris Fuchs)和佩雷斯(Asher Peres)提出了一系列的乐器主义论点,反对QM中的“解释”所起的作用。从那时起 - 无论本文的出版如何,人们都经历了持续的增长数量,构成了Adan Cabello所描述的“疯狂地图”。在这项工作中,我们讨论了这种危险的理解中这种危险分裂背后的原因,并提供了反对QM中的解释的新论点,而QM的需要 - 对Fuchs and Peres的解释 - 源于对理论的代表性现实主义理解,它是在爱因斯坦,海森伯格和保利的著作中的理解。此外,我们将争辩说,有理由相信,Quanta理论的“解释”的创建已成为反现实主义者设计的陷阱,以便将现实主义者囚禁在没有退出的迷宫中。从戴维·德意志(David Deutsch)对物理学的反现实主义理解的批判性分析为角度来看,我们试图解决“理论”和“观察”所扮演的参考和角色。在这方面,我们将争辩说,逃避反现实主义解释陷阱的关键是要认识到 - 正如爱因斯坦在一个世纪前告诉海森伯格 - 只有理论才能告诉您可以观察到什么。最后,我们将得出结论,QM的需求不是一种新的解释,而是一种理论(正式的)一致,连贯和统一的方案,这使我们能够理解理论在说什么。

In the year 2000, in a paper titled Quantum Theory Needs No 'Interpretation', Chris Fuchs and Asher Peres presented a series of instrumentalist arguments against the role played by 'interpretations' in QM. Since then --quite regardless of the publication of this paper-- the number of interpretations has experienced a continuous growth constituting what Adan Cabello has characterized as a "map of madness". In this work, we discuss the reasons behind this dangerous fragmentation in understanding and provide new arguments against the need of interpretations in QM which --opposite to those of Fuchs and Peres-- are derived from a representational realist understanding of theories --grounded in the writings of Einstein, Heisenberg and Pauli. Furthermore, we will argue that there are reasons to believe that the creation of 'interpretations' for the theory of quanta has functioned as a trap designed by anti-realists in order to imprison realists in a labyrinth with no exit. Taking as a standpoint the critical analysis by David Deutsch to the anti-realist understanding of physics, we attempt to address the references and roles played by 'theory' and 'observation'. In this respect, we will argue that the key to escape the anti-realist trap of interpretation is to recognize that --as Einstein told Heisenberg almost one century ago-- it is only the theory which can tell you what can be observed. Finally, we will conclude that what QM needs is not a new interpretation but instead, a theoretical (formal-conceptual) consistent, coherent and unified scheme which allows us to understand what the theory is really talking about.
