Abstract

A contribution is given to the attempts towards a solution of the measurement problem in quantum mechanics, in the spirit of some previous papers. In order to justify the possibility of a macroscopic description of the measuring apparatus, a relevant hypothesis is found to be the separation of two characteristic times: the decay time for the kernel of a generalized master equation and the characteristic time for the evolution of macroscopic quantities of the measuring device.
