Abstract
Abstract Department of Physics and Astronomy University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC 20208, USA [AF] Two of the most important unsolved problems in theoretical physics are the problem of quantizing gravitation and the measurement problem in quantum theory. It is possible that the solution of each one needs the other. Since we have successful quantum theories of electroweak, and strong interactions, the solution to the problem of the collapse of the wave function, known as the measurement problem, may lie in the yet unknown quantum theory of the remaining interaction, namely quantum gravity. On the other hand, the numerous unsuccessful attempts to construct a quantum theory of gravity for more than six decades on the assumption that the present linear quantum theory is correct suggests that perhaps not only general relativity but also quantum theory should be modified in order to construct of satisfactory quantum theory of gravity.
