Realismo estructural óntico, Interpretación modal-hamiltoniana, Indistinguibilidad cuánticaResumo
Uno de los mayores atractivos del Realismo Estructural Óntico (REO) es el brindar una propuesta metafísica capaz de lidiar con el problema ontológico de la indistinguibilidad cuántica. Por otra parte, la Interpretación Modal-Hamiltoniana de la mecánica cuántica (MHI), aspira a formular una solución “global”, en la que todos los problemas ontológicos de la teoría puedan abordarse adecuadamente en términos de una única ontología. En ambas propuestas, la categoría ontológica de objeto está ausente. El propósito del presente artículo es analizar esta propuesta sugiriendo que satisface las motivaciones centrales que condujeron a la formulación del REO, pero además supera los problemas conceptuales que el REO ha enfrentado desde su formulación.
