The Role of Noise in Quantum Measurement

I don't think there is any collapse at all of the wave function. It's just a kind of transition from a very sort of, I have a particular geometric model where you have trajectories in a like a helix and they were kind of rotating like a piece of rope. In a nonlinear system, noise can be your friend, it's not your enemy. There is a good reason to add noise to a climate model to represent the degrees of freedom you can't simulate explicitly. adding noise actually does help improve the, some aspects of the climatology of the model. And this is another area where non linearity plays an important role. The brain is a good example because
