This review, of the understanding of quantum mechanics, is broad in scope, and aims to
reflect enough of the literature to be representative of the current state of the subject. To …

Cosmic decoherence: primordial power spectra and non-Gaussianities

AD Hammou, N Bartolo - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org

B Drossel, G Ellis - New Journal of Physics, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
This paper is an in depth implementation of the proposal (Ellis 2012 Ann. Phys. NY 327
1890–932) that the quantum measurement issue can be resolved by carefully looking at top …

Critical review of prevailing explanations for the emergence of classicality in cosmology

J Berjon, E Okon, D Sudarsky - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
There have been recent attempts at justifying, from first principles, and within the standard
framework, the emergence of classical behavior in the postinflationary cosmological context …

Impact of dynamical collapse models on inflationary cosmology

A Gundhi, JL Gaona-Reyes, M Carlesso, A Bassi - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Inflation solves several cosmological problems at the classical and quantum level, with a
strong agreement between the theoretical predictions of well-motivated inflationary models …

Less decoherence and more coherence in quantum gravity, inflationary cosmology and elsewhere

E Okon, D Sudarsky - Foundations of Physics, 2016 - Springer
Abstract In Crull (Found Phys 45: 1019–1045, 2015) it is argued that, in order to confront
outstanding problems in cosmology and quantum gravity, interpretational aspects of …

On the choice of the collapse operator in cosmological Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) theories

J Martin, V Vennin - The European Physical Journal C, 2021 - Springer
Abstract The Continuous Spontaneous Localisation (CSL) theory in the cosmological
context is subject to uncertainties related to the choice of the collapse operator. In this paper …

Generally covariant dynamical reduction models and the Hadamard condition

BA Juárez-Aubry, BS Kay, D Sudarsky - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We provide general guidelines for generalizing dynamical reduction models to curved
spacetimes and propose a class of generally covariant relativistic versions of the Ghirardi …

Possible role of gravity in collapse of the wave-function: a brief survey of some ideas

TP Singh - Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
This article is a brief survey of some approaches to implementing the suggestion that
collapse of the wave function is mediated by gravity. These approaches include: a possible …
