论文摘要
在这项工作中,我们考虑将连续的自发定位(CSL)动态崩溃理论应用于通货膨胀时代时开放的各种替代方法。此处讨论的许多问题的确切解决方案将不仅要等待一般相对论的CSL理论,而且要等待完全可行的量子引力理论。我们在这里关注的是探索这些问题,并警告不要结论过早结论。该探索包括:处理量子场理论和引力的两种不同的方法,对崩溃的算子的识别以及CSL理论参数的一般性质和价值。与这些问题相关的所有选择都有可能显着改变人们可以得出的结论。我们还认为,CSL参数值和CMB观察数据之间在最近的一篇论文中发现的不兼容性与对CSL理论的宇宙学环境的脱氯做出的特定选择有关(因为已知在非占主导地位的实验室情况下起作用),这些选择不代表最自然的实验室情况)。
In this work we consider a wide variety of alternatives opened when applying the continuous spontaneous localization (CSL) dynamical collapse theory to the inflationary era. The definitive resolution of many of the issues discussed here will have to await, not only for a general relativistic CSL theory, but for a fully workable theory of quantum gravity. Our concern here is to explore these issues, and to warn against premature conclusions. This exploration includes: two different approaches to deal with quantum field theory and gravitation, the identification of the collapse-generating operator and the general nature and values of the parameters of the CSL theory. All the choices connected with these issues have the potential to dramatically alter the conclusions one can draw. We also argue that the incompatibilities found in a recent paper, between the CSL parameter values and the CMB observational data, are associated with specific choices made for the extrapolation to the cosmological context of the CSL theory (as it is known to work in non-relativistic laboratory situations) which do not represent the most natural ones.
