Description

The aim of the mini-symposium is to discuss collapse models proposed as a solution of the measurement problem in quantum mechanics. In particular, gravity-related collapse models will be discussed, together with experimental signatures, such as (but not only)  the spontaneous radiation predicted by these models.
The symposium is supported by the Foundational Questions Institute, FQXi (FQXi-RFP-CPW-2008 and FQXi-MGA-2102) and by the John Templeton Foundation (QUBO project, Grant 62099)

Symposium Chairs:
C. Curceanu, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, INFN, Italy

Organizing Committee:


F. Napolitano, INFN-LNF

K. Piscicchia, INFN-LNF/CREF
