Title: A Realist Approach to Quantum Individuality: Against the "Received" and "Alternative" Views

Title: 量子个体性的现实主义方法:反对“接受的”和“替代的”观点

Authors:Christian de Ronde, Ivan Klarreich
Abstract: In this work we address the contemporary debate about quantum individuality expressed as an opposition between those who, like D\'ecio Krause, defend the reference of the theory to "non-individual particles", and those like Dennis Dieks, who propose instead to preserve the notion of "classical particle" as commonly applied by contemporary physicists. We will argue that these viewpoints rather than truly opposed share a common methodology which has helped to reinforce the doctrine of classical concepts that was imposed by Bohr and Dirac within the "standard" formulation --which remains the orthodox physical account of the theory of quanta. We will also discuss a recently proposed relativist yet objective relational account of quantum individuality [25] which, going back to Einstein's methodological approach, opens the doors to a completely new, truly realist understanding of quantum individuality.
Abstract: 在本工作中,我们关注关于量子个体性的当代争论,这种争论表现为两种观点之间的对立:一种观点以Décio Krause为代表,主张理论参考“非个体粒子”;另一种观点以Dennis Dieks为代表,主张保留“经典粒子”的概念,这是当代物理学家通常应用的概念。我们将论证,这些观点与其说真正对立,不如说共享一种共同的方法论,这种方法论有助于加强由玻尔和狄拉克在“标准”表述中强加的经典概念学说——这一学说仍然是量子理论的正统物理解释。我们还将讨论一个最近提出的相对主义但客观的关系性量子个体性描述[25],该描述回归到爱因斯坦的方法论,为量子个体性的全新、真正的实在论理解打开了大门。
