Weird Question I Think

Featured Replies

Is the uncertainly principal in any way applicable to wave function collapse in that the collapse itself is related to the uncertainty? What I am trying to get at is that uncertainty and probability are described as fundamental aspects of a quantum system. Such systems display properties that can both be wave and particle like. Wave function collapse then if I understand correctly is really just an eigenstate of superposition? Though if I understand decoherence correctly at all the idea of the wave function collapse is merely illusionary, or never really reached. I think this is dynamical decoherence correct? Well if that’s true is the uncertainty itself the illusionary mechanism of the dynamic system in operation when it comes to decoherence or interference?

 

I also do not understand uncertainty on this other point. Is the max we could ever understand or observe information from uncertainty currently limited to the speed of light? I don’t know now how to word the question any better then that we can observe to a certain degree of uncertainty right?
