What is the name of the phenomenon in quantum mechanics where a particle's wavefunction collapses into a definite state when measured, and what interpretation of quantum mechanics suggests that this collapse occurs due to the act of measurement by a conscious observer?
The phenomenon in quantum mechanics where a particle's wavefunction collapses into a definite state when measured is called wavefunction collapse or collapse of the wavefunction.
