Irrational Dynamical Variables and the Measurement Problem in Quantum Mechanics

Quantum Physics 2015-07-09 v1

Abstract

The quantum mechanical measurement process is considered. A hypothetical concept of irrational dynamical variables is proposed. A possible definition of measurement is discussed along with a mathematical method to calculate experimental result probabilities. The postulates of quantum mechanics are analyzed and modified. Thought experiments and implications are considered.
