Virtual and Actual Events

  • VIRTUAL EVENTS

    • Point events
      • (not=point measurements)
    • Interactions
    • Microscopic interactions
    • Continuous
    • Deterministic (apparently)
    • Contribute to alternate futures
    • Have intrinsic group structure (e.g. gauge invariance, renormalisation)

  • ACTUAL EVENTS

    • Visible events in history
      • (e.g. measurement)
    • Selections
    • Macroscopic decoherence
    • Discrete
    • Probabilistic
    • Definitely occur (or not)
    • Have branching tree structure
