Experiments in Principle for the Artscience (AS) Interpretation: Paper II

The physics of wavefunction collapse from Hilbert space to a classically real spacetime, accompanied by wave-particle duality, is, fundamentally, reduction of the complex psi to reality. We introduce new terminology for new physics. The superposition sigma ~ psi + phi of system and apparatus is postulated. A simple and obvious thing to test is the ensemble probability (Sect. 1). Weinberg (2005) suggests three types of experiments for energy, position, and momentum observable ensemble averages which should all be tested (Sect. 2 - 4). This Reference is intended to serve as general background for the present paper which is self-contained.

Artscience (AS) in Classical and Quantum Physics: Paper I

A general methodology and specific formalism are used to restrict the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. A natural psi-collapse to reality is developed in an equation with terms independent of the measuring equipment. The theory requires one of three experiments for the ensemble average of position, momentum, or energy, or a probability-experiment. Both classically and quantum mechanically, we define Artscience (AS) as Logic-Epistemology in Physics, where epistemology is treated as phenomenology. AS (logic phenomenology) is thus shown to be related to Physics (formalism-data) .
