Retrocausal model of reality for quantum fields
P. D. Drummond, M. D. Reid
Abstract
This paper tackles the measurement problem of quantum mechanics in a new way. The authors suggest that reality is a space-time field with vacuum fluctuations, which allows the treatment of any quantum field theory as a realistic object. With this approach, using stochastic trajectories with propagation forward and backward in time, the observation of sharp eigenvalues and Bell violations in a measurement is due to unitary quantum amplification to a macroscopic size.
