Chapter 15: A Top-down versus a Bottom-up Hidden-variables Description of the Stern–Gerlach Experiment

    Abstract:

    We employ the Stern–Gerlach experiment to highlight the basics of a minimalist, non-interpretational top-down approach to quantum foundations. Certain benefits of the “quantum structural studies” (QSS) highlightedhere are detected and discussed. While the top-down approach can be described without making any reference to the fundamental structure of a closed system, the hidden variables (HV) theory á la Bohm proves to be more subtle than it is typically regarded.
