Scientific paper

Arguments are given, suggesting that the enigmatic phenomenon of wavefunction collapse ought to be a real physical process, and that pure unitary evolution is therefore an approximation. Two specific reasons are provided to support the case that deviations from unitary evolution arise when gravitational effects begin to be important. Accordingly, wavefunction collapse comes about as a consequence of a tension between the principles of quantum mechanics and those of general relativity. A specific proposal for the rate of state reduction is given, and an experiment is suggested for testing this proposal.
