SIQI WEI

Dia Wei is now a PhD student at the School of Journalism and Communication at Nanjing University, majoring in journalism and communication, and is currently interested in cultural communication and arts communication. Prior to pursuing her PhD, Wei received a Master of Arts degree from City University of Hong Kong and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Central South University.

During the Master’s program, Wei majored in Creative Media, focusing on media culture and arts planning. While studying media theory, she followed her tutor to visit major art galleries and museums in Hong Kong to compare their theme selection, curatorial logic and mode of operation, and assisted her tutor in organizing the successful “Utopia, Dystopia, Nature” art exhibition as a curatorial assistant.

Wei completed her undergraduate studies in Digital Publishing at the College of Humanities, Central South University. During this period, Wei not only completed theoretical studies, but also participated in a number of research activities, and independently completed the “Study on Chinese Fireworks Branding”, which provided a reference for Hunan fireworks companies to develop their branding plans.

Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?

A. Einstein, B. Podolsky, and N. Rosen

Phys. Rev., May 1935

In a complete theory there is an element corresponding to each element of reality. A sufficient condition for the reality of a physical quantity is the possibility of predicting it with certainty, without disturbing the system. In quantum mechanics in the case of two physical quantities described by non-commuting operators, the knowledge of one precludes the knowledge of the other. Then either (1) the description of reality given by the wave function in quantum mechanics is not complete or (2) these two quantities cannot have simultaneous reality. Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that if (1) is false then (2) is also false. One is thus led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.
