Abstract: | Although the quantum laws are time-reversal invariant, a contradiction appears if two measurements performed by a single observer, and described according to these laws, are performed in two opposite directions of time. This contradiction leads to bringing forth the concept of an observer's private time, and then to building up a temporal parameter common to several observers from their private times. Time asymmetry turns out to be a consequence of the latter construction. |
