A Bohmian version of a 2-state quantum system
Abstract
I construct a Bohmian version of a 2-state quantum system, where in addition to the quantum state, the system is characterized by a definite physical state which changes stochastically under the guidance of the quantum state. I argue that the probabilities produced by this process are well-defined, contrary to claims in "Why quantum mechanics cannot be formulated as a Markov process" by D. Gillespie (1994) about a related model.
