TWO WORLDS. “Bohr’s conception of quantum mechanics has traditionally been seen as opposed to such a view, not least because of his insistence on the necessity of the concepts of classical physics in the account of quantum phenomena.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn

A QUANTUM WORLD? “The spectacular successes of quantum physics have made it a commonplace to assert that we live in a quantum world. This idea seems to imply a kind of “quantum fundamentalism” according to which everything in the universe (if not the universe as a whole) is fundamentally of a quantum nature and ultimately describable in quantum-mechanical terms.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn

AUTHOR. “Henrik Zinkernagel has a degree in theoretical physics and a doctorate in philosophy of science. He is a full professor in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Granada.” https://lnkd.in/emyq2BPE View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE focuses on a consideration of some of the ideas of the famous quantum physicist Niels Bohr, titled Are we living in a quantum world? Bohr and quantum fundamentalism. Bohr was a Danish physicist “who made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922. Bohr was also a philosopher and a promoter of scientific research.” A remarkable thinker by any standards. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr View in LinkedIn

NOT A DOGMATIST. “I argue below that Bohr is best understood as not being a quantum fundamentalist – neither in the ontological nor in the epistemological sense.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn

NUANCED VIEW. “At least on the face of it, Niels Bohr’s conception of quantum mechanics stands in contrast to quantum fundamentalism. Thus, Bohr insisted on the necessity of the concepts of classical physics in the description of quantum phenomena.” https://lnkd.in/eauD5rnp View in LinkedIn
