QUANTUM STRUCTURE AND SPACETIME.
The aim of this paper is twofold. In the first part, it clarifies the nature of the wave function within the framework of the primitive ontology approach to quantum mechanics using the tools of ontic structural realism. In the second part, it critically discusses the primitive ontological move of po...

In the first part, it clarifies the nature of the wave function within the framework of the primitive ontology approach to quantum mechanics using the tools of ontic structural realism. In the second part, it critically discusses the primitive ontological move of postulating from the start matter localized in spacetime as the ultimate referent for quantum theory, in particular in the case where this latter is applied to the general relativistic gravitational field. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Poznan Studies in the Philosophy of the Sciences & the Humanities is the property of Brill / Rodopi and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
