Quote from first paragraph in link:

I am not going to explain the technicalities in great detail, since these are explained very clearly in the paper itself.

The paper the above quote references is here and is only one paragraph consisting of 8 sentences.

And is actually entitled: "The quantum state cannot be interpreted statistically"

Dear Sounds_of_Silence,
Your thread titled "can the quantumstate be interpreted statistically?" Is answered via your link which is:
The quantum state cannot be interpreted statistically.

An opening post, with just a link!!! WTF

Care to elaborate a bit please mate?

vvv

Ok, I understand that the OP violates every rule and custom on ATS, but still I'm glad he posted. If you read through some of the link you'll find the article discusses a paper which claims the quantum state can not be interpreted statistically, but the author of the article disagrees and says it can, hence the confusion over titles.

I found my self agreeing with the article, that makes me an epistemecist as opposed to an onticist. That's a good thing to know if you're asked that at a party.

A flag for the link, no star for the post.
