Abstract
The derivation of the ?free particle? Schr?dinger equation, based on an analogy between transverse motion of a string surrounded by a viscous medium and massless field propagation in such a medium, is presented It is found that the Schr?dinger equation corresponds to an approximate field equation in which frictional forces dominate. It is argued that Copenhagen and statistical interpretations are incompatible with the present approach. Possible implications on the interpretation problems, especially determinism at a basic level, are discussed.
