Scientific Rationale

The school is directed towards undergraduate and graduate students with interests in the foundations of quantum theory. Quantum Theory without observers is a notion which was introduced by John Stewart Bell. It refers to realistic formulations of quantum theories where neither the "observer" nor the notion of measurement plays any fundamental role, i.e it plays no role in the formulation of the theory. The school will be held by 4 distinguished scientists working in the field of foundations.

The school will cover the topics Bohmian Mechanics, collapse theories of the GRW type, experiments, probability in physics.
