Quantum foundations

an objective collapse model in which quantum wavefunctions spontaneously localize at random, rarely for single particles but quickly for macroscopic bodies.

In quantum foundations, Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber theory refers to an objective collapse model in which quantum wavefunctions spontaneously localize at random, rarely for single particles but quickly for macroscopic bodies. This meaning comes from Ghirardi (1986) in Physical Review D.[1]
