Abstract The quantum theory of de Broglie and Bohm solves the measurement problem, but the hypothetical corpuscles play no role in the argument. The solution finds a more natural home in the Everett interpretation.

• On the Common Structure of Bohmian Mechanics and the Ghirardi–Rimini–Weber Theory (2006, background): “ trajectories as the PO, as what tables and chairs are made of. One then easily arrives at the conclusion that the trajectories have no influence on the outcomes of experiments and are thus superfluous [18]. And, since the wave function does not collapse, one would then have to regard, as one is suppo”
