Quantum Measurement Problem
How does measurement collapse the wave function? What constitutes a measurement?
Timothian Model's Short Answer...
Touching configurations of the medium with mass changes configurations of a medium also having mass.
Details
Measurement as physical interaction between chunks:
No wave function collapse needed; measurement reveals pre-existing chunk configurations.
Eliminates observer-dependent reality, restoring objective physical description.
Resolves paradoxes like Schrödinger's cat without multiple worlds or consciousness-induced collapse.
