摘要
量子力学和相对论建立后,其中的哲学问题催生了现代西方科学哲学,而把两者结合起来的量子场论势必推动科学哲学的发展,进而引发当代哲学观念的变革。为此,有必要考察量子场论中的哲学问题,特别是从量子力学的解释到量子场论的解释的发展趋势。文章在综述爱思唯尔科学哲学手册大型科学哲学丛书中的《物理学哲学》的相关部分的基础上,重点对量子力学的非局域性等问题和量子场论的解释问题进行简要评论。
Philosophical problems in quantum mechanics and theory of relativity have led to the birth of modern Western philosophy of science,while the quantum field theory,as the combination of quantum mechanics and theory of relativity,is certain to promote the development of philosophy of science,and further to lead to the change of ideas in contemporary philosophy. Therefore,it is necessary for us to examine the quantum field theory in philosophy,especially the developmental trend from the interpretation of quantum mechanics to the interpretation of the quantum field theory. Based on our overview of the relevant content of Philosophy of Physics in Elsevier Handbook of philosophy of science,we mainly make comments on the problems of nonlocality in quantum mechanics and problems of interpretation of quantum field theory,etc.
