Abstract
Quantum theory has been one of the most important theories in modern physics for the past century, and has been highly successful in terms of empirical confirmations and predictions, especially in the microscopic world. Alongside these successes, quantum physics has been deeply troubled by the philosophical challenges posed by its principles and assumptions. Among the most important of these is the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, to which many studies and theories have been devoted to various interpretations or related philosophical foundations. The present paper, after briefly discussing the various interpretations known about the uncertainty principle, seeks an ontological explanation of this principle based on Sadraian substantial motion. To do this, we've taken advantage of the non-localizability of quantum objects, which can be a causal link between quantum uncertainty at the surface of natural objects, on the one side, and the inherent change that this motion causes at its fundamental level.
