Abstract

A quantum dynamical model for the measurement of an N-level system is proposed based on the correlation between the states of the detector and the states of the measured system in the measurement process. It is shown that the postulate of wavefunction collapse for the measured system can be realized in a dynamical evolution of the total system formed by the measured system plus the detector, which is governed by the Schrödinger equation.
