Abstract

In previous work the author has proposed a different approach to the problem of von Neumann measurement and wave function
collapse. Here we apply it to the collapse of degenerate states. Our predictions differ from those of von Neumann and, separately,
Lüders in significant ways. An experiment is suggested that might distinguish between the possibilities.
