摘要翻译:
量子理论中测量问题的答案之一是量子理论的哥本哈根解释(即正统量子理论),其中波函数坍缩发生在观察者的头脑中。事实上,最初像冯·诺依曼、伦敦、鲍尔和维格纳这样的大科学家(最初)都认为波函数坍缩发生在大脑中,或者是由观察者的意识引起的。然而,这一问题一直悬而未决,争议很大。事实上,关于量子效应在人脑微观结构中的存续问题,存在着许多具有挑战性的讨论,这主要是由于热、湿和噪声的大脑环境导致量子态快速退相干,从而阻碍了大脑处理的长寿命相干性。然而,也有一些论据和证据表明,在大脑中出现大的相干态是可行的。在本文中,我们的方法是基于后者,其中宏观量子态在人脑中是可能的。在这里,我们用一个类似Brassard的隐形传态电路来模拟神经元中光子的延迟发光,即等效于光子的量子态通过视觉通路从视网膜转移到视皮层。事实上,我们的模拟考虑了神经元处理的经典和量子力学方面。因此,基于我们的模拟,我们的大脑有可能接收到视觉皮层中被我们的意识折叠的光子的精确量子态,这支持了量子理论中测量问题的哥本哈根解释。

英文摘要:
One of the answers to the measurement problem in quantum theory is given by the Copenhagen-Interpretation of quantum theory (i.e. orthodox quantum theory) in which the wave function collapse happens in (by) the mind of observer. In fact, at first, great scientists like Von Neumann, London, Bauer and Wigner (initially) believed that the wave function collapse occurs in the brain or is caused by the consciousness of observer. However, this issue has been stayed yet very controversial. In fact, there are many challenging discussions about the survival of quantum effects in microscopic structures of the human brain, which is mainly because of quick decoherence of quantum states due to hot, wet and noisy environment of the brain that forbids long life coherence for brain processing. Nevertheless, there are also several arguments and evidences that emergence of large coherent states is feasible in the brain. In this paper, our approach is based on the latter in which macroscopic quantum states are probable in the human brain. Here, we simulate the delayed luminescence of photons in neurons with a Brassard-like teleportation circuit, i.e. equivalent to the transfer of quantum states of photons through the visual pathways from retina to the visual cortex. Indeed, our simulation considers both classical and quantum mechanical aspects of processing in neurons. As a result and based on our simulation, it is possible for our brain to receive the exact quantum states of photons in the visual cortex to be collapsed by our consciousness, which supports the Copenhagen-Interpretation of measurement problem in quantum theory.
