Philip Pearle, professor of physics emeritus, was an invited speaker on May 28 at “The Quantum Landscape,” a conference held at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario.
In his talk, “Collapse and Consequences,” Pearle gave an introduction to the conceptual ideas and equations of his Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) theory of dynamical wave function collapse. He also discussed various applications of the theory. Pearle said that of the 16 talks given at the conference, six, including his, were related to CSL.
