Article Main Content

The idea of new-type articles, named “Perspectives”, announced recently by some leading journals, is suggested to be approached for the controversial question of quantum mechanics interpretation. Firstly, it is revealed briefly the unsatisfactory situation of the nowadays predominant doctrine about that question. Then some basic elements of the proposed approach are presented. Those elements refer to (i) uncertainty relations, (ii) distinction between own tasks of quantum mechanics and description of quantum measurements, (iii) defects of collapse scenarios for measurements, and (iv) depiction of quantum measurements as data transmission stochastic processes. The essay closes with some concluding remarks.

Keywords: Quantum Mechanics Interpretation, Shortcomings of the Existing Predominant Doctrine, Revaluation of Uncertainty Relations, Abandonment of Collapse Scenarios for Measurements, Quantum Measurements as Information Transmission Processes.
