McCoy	Interpretive analogies between quantum and statistical mechanics	2020	26	.pdf	application/pdf	13911	932	49	A perusal of the literature reveals that rather little has been written down concerning the analogies between interpretations of quantum mechanics and of statistical Quantum mechanics and classical statistical mechanics are both theories of statistical physics, whose empirical content depends on the objective probabilities that Thus, it is sufficient to discuss states and probabilities in quantum mechanics, for this general case view, I will consider how two interpretive issues in quantum mechanics, the quantum measurement problem and primitive ontology, arise also in statistical mechanics the discussion of primitive ontology in quantum mechanics to the interpretive framework of this paper. maintain a classical ontic picture of deterministic particle mechanics leads to a significant philosophical problem in interpreting these probabilities.11 In brief, it is as since the empirical content of the theories is entirely contained in statistics of observables and, hence, is determined by the probability distribution one uses to describe a	./cache/work_ffwfi2pndfdjdgljfqprxwvmyy.pdf	./txt/work_ffwfi2pndfdjdgljfqprxwvmyy.txt
