Decoherence doesn't really solve these issues. It gives you an approximately diagonal density matrix for the macroscopic degrees of freedom, but: (a) Not exactly diagonal (b) There isn't a unique decomposition of the…
It's not unitary evolution breaking down, just that the Born rule isn't a consequence of unitary evolution. They're separate independent hypotheses. In most derivations of QM from an axiomatic basis they're consequences…
No it can't. There have been many attempts and they don't work. The Born rule is independent of unitary evolution. The closest one can get is to declare that the quantum state is fundamentally a statistical object (i.e.…
Well in the most common family of interpretations "collapse" isn't an actual physical process, just Bayesian updating. So you wouldn't expect to find physical evidence of it in that sense. It's true that from the…
