Drs. Hellman and Healey are conducting a small, interdisciplinary conference on "Quantum Measurement: Decoherence and Modal Interpretations." The workshop is to take place at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, May 4-7, 1995. Their goal is to bring together leading physicists and philosophers of science who share a common interest in the problems of quantum measurement so that each group may become better acquainted with work of the other group. Both groups have been actively pursuing research programs that may represent genuine progress on this long-standing, deep problem-area in the foundations of quantum mechanics. Participating philosophers of science are concentrating on various recently proposed "modal" and "interactive" interpretations which, consistently with known limitations, allow assignments of definite values of measurable quantities in certain circumstances (including measurement interactions) in which such values are not recognized according to the conventional interpretative framework. Participating physicists are concentrating on both the evidence for a genuine problem at the macroscopic level and on the role of environmentally-induced decoherence of the state in bringing about definite values of measurable quantities. All participants should seek to understand how these proposals are related to one another and to what extent any promising approach to the measurement problem emerges from them. The conference can stimulate interdisciplinary cooperation in the continued pursuit of answers to these related questions.

赫尔曼和希利博士正在进行一个小型的跨学科会议，主题是“量子测量：退相干和模态解释”。“讲习班将于1995年5月4日至7日在明尼阿波利斯的明尼苏达大学举行。 他们的目标是汇集领先的物理学家和科学哲学家谁分享量子测量问题的共同利益，使每个组可以更好地了解工作的其他组。 这两个小组一直在积极追求研究计划，这些计划可能代表量子力学基础中这个长期存在的深层次问题领域的真正进展。 与会的科学哲学家集中在各种最近提出的“模态”和“互动”的解释，与已知的限制，允许在某些情况下（包括测量相互作用），这些值不承认根据传统的解释框架的可测量量的确定值的分配。 参与的物理学家们既关注宏观层面上真正问题的证据，也关注环境诱导的状态退相干在带来可测量量的确定值方面的作用。 所有与会者都应设法了解这些建议之间的相互关系，以及在多大程度上从中产生解决计量问题的有希望的办法。 会议可以促进跨学科合作，继续寻求这些相关问题的答案。
