A rigorous and general formalism is presented for the quantum mechanical description of the collective motions of a system containing a finite number of particles. The dynamical equations are expressed in terms of collective and "internal" coordinates. The internal coordinates are symmetrical in the particles, and correspond to the laboratory coordinates with the collective motions subtracted off. The formalism is applied to center of mass motion.

The interpretation problems of quantum theory are considered. In the formalism of quantum theory the possible states of a system are described by a state vector. The state vector, which will be represented as |ψ> in Dirac notation, is the most general form of the quantum mechanical description. The central problem of the interpretation of quantum theory is to explain the physical significance of the |ψ>. In this paper we have shown that one of the best way to make of interpretation of wave function is to take the wave function as an operator.
