The Copenhagen Interpretation A review of the copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics The Copenhagen Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics First interpretation of quantum mechanics due to Niels Bohr Directing the strokes of Ockham's razor Skeptic (may be flippant but short) overview of the Interpretations Discussions with Einstein on Epistemological Problems in Atomic Physics Report by Niels Bohr of his discussions with Albert Einstein over many years on the epistemological implications of quantum theory. The Everett Interpretation FAQ A set of frequently asked questions on Everett's many worlds approach to quantum mechanics Everett's Relative-State Formulation of Quantum Mechanics Describes Everett's attempt to solve the measurement problem by dropping the collapse dynamics from the standard von Neumann-Dirac theory of quantum mechanics. From the Stanford Encyclopedia. Foundations of Quantum Mechanics John Bell and Bohmian QM Heisenberg's Physics and Philosophy History of QM and Copenhagen Interpretation Indeterminism and the Bohm Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics In this essay it is argued that it is possible to subscribe to the Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics without giving up indeterminism in nature.

Mangled Worlds Quantum Mechanics Describes a variation on the many worlds interpretation in which the Born probability rule can be derived via finite world counting. Many-Worlds FAQ This FAQ shows how quantum paradoxes are resolved by the "many-worlds" interpretation or metatheory of quantum mechanics. This FAQ does not seek to prove that the many-worlds interpretation is the "correct" quantum metatheory, merely to correct some of the common errors and misinformation on the subject.
