The Diósi-Penrose (DP) proposal gives an objective physical threshold, providing a plausible lifetime for quantum-superposed states.
“The DP proposal gives an objective physical threshold, providing a plausible lifetime for quantum-superposed states.”
From Consciousness in the universe (2014) · cites this paper as [96]
DP is a proposal for extending quantum mechanics that takes the bridge between quantum and classical physics as a quantum-gravitational phenomenon.
“Diósi-Penrose objective reduction (DP) is a particular proposal for an extension of current quantum mechanics, taking the bridge between quantum-and classical-level physics as a 'quantum-gravitational' phenomenon.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
