This book shows how Bohmian mechanics overcomes the need for a
measurement postulate involving wave function collapse. The
measuring process plays a very important role in quantum mechanics.
It has been widely analyzed within the Copenhagen approach through
the Born and von Neumann postulates, with later extension due to
Luders. In contrast, much less effort has been invested in the
measurement theory within the Bohmian mechanics framework. The
continuous measurement (sharp and fuzzy, or strong and weak)
problem is considered here in this framework. The authors begin by
generalizing the so-called Mensky approach, which is based on
restricted path integral through quantum corridors. The measuring
system is then considered to be an open quantum system following a
stochastic Schroedinger equation. Quantum stochastic trajectories
(in the Bohmian sense) and their role in basic quantum processes
are discussed in detail. The decoherence process is thereby
described in terms of classical trajectories issuing from the
violation of the noncrossing rule of quantum trajectories.
