Relativistic Collapse Model with Quantised Time Variables

Authors

Daniel J. Bedingham, Philip Pearle

Abstract

A relativistic collapse model for distinguishable particles is presented. Position and time, for each particle, are the fundamental operators of the theory. The Schr\"odinger equation is of the CSL form, with a Hermitian Hamiltonian and an anti-Hermitian, white-noise dependent, Hamiltonian. It generates state vector evolution parametrised by an "evolution parameter". It is shown how this can be interpreted as an evolving state in spacetime with collapses satisfying Born rule probabilities, and how certain choices of collapse generating operators lead to states of definite mass and definite configuration in spacetime. The model is Poincar\'e covariant and conserves energy in expectation.
