Modern Quantum Temporal Framework A Foundational Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
Abstract
This work introduces a foundational interpretive framework for quantum mechanics based on a single organizing principle: the temporal mismatch between observer and system. The framework proposes three fundamental laws of quantum time, explaining quantum indeterminacy, wavefunction collapse, entanglement, and the quantum–classical transition without modifying the mathematical formalism of quantum mechanics. Quantum behavior is interpreted not as intrinsic disorder, but as a consequence of observing systems whose intrinsic dynamical time scales differ radically from the temporal resolution of measurement. This work is intended as a conceptual and foundational contribution, offering a unified interpretive structure for ongoing discussions in the foundations of quantum mechanics. The framework is operationally defined and falsifiable in principle, though not directly testable with current experimental capabilities.
