摘要: Quantum mechanics under the Copenhagen interpretation is one of most experimentally well verified formalisms. However, it known that makes explicit reference to external observation or "measurement." One says suffers from measurement problem. This deficiency excludes as a viable fundamental formalism and prevents use standard quantum in discussions cosmology. Numerous alternative interpretations have been developed with goals reproducing its predictive success while obviating While several make distinct, falsifiable, predictions, many claim precisely reproduce results mechanics. The sheer number raises issues. If experimental predictions are identical, how they be assessed? On what grounds can an said trump another? Without recourse findings, may continue assess on logical structure, self-consistency, simplicity (number plausibility assumptions). We argue, where possible, demonstrate, all common unresolved deficiencies. Among these deficiencies failures resolve problem, fine-tuning problems, logical/mathematical inconsistencies, disagreement experiment, others. Shortcomings severe call into question viability any interpretations. When appropriate, we indicate future work some
