Measurement Problem in Quantum mechanics

From the inception of Quantum Mechanics (QM) the concept
of measurement has proved a source of difficulty. The
Einstein-Bohr debates, out of which both the Einstein Podolski
Rosen paradox and Schrödinger’s cat paradox developed,
centered upon this difficulty. The problem of measurement in
quantum mechanics arises out of the fact that several
principles of the theory appear to be in conflict. In particular,
the dynamic principles of quantum mechanics seem to be in
conflict with the postulate of collapse.
