Wavefunction Collapse, Measurement Problem, Decoherence

Collapse is the transition from quantum superposition to definite outcome — the moment potential becomes actual.

Modified Schrödinger Equation

$$i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}|\psi\rangle = \hat{H}|\psi\rangle - i\Gamma(\Phi)\hat{P}|\psi\rangle$$

The collapse term $-i\Gamma(\Phi)\hat{P}$ depends on observer’s integrated information.
