At the dawn of the second quantum century, physicist Alexey Semikhatov offers a coherent presentation of the current state of quantum mechanics. What are the fundamental features of the quantum world and at what cost can they be reconciled with...
intuition? By what rules do quantum systems evolve over time and how do probabilities intervene in this development? How do various interpretations of quantum mechanics push us towards deeply philosophical conclusions about the possible structure of reality - from parallel universes to breaks in perception? And how does the familiar reality arise from the alien quantum one? It turns out that quantum mechanics can be seriously discussed in an understandable language, and discussing its complex aspects makes this conversation even more interesting.
