    "abstract": "In this work spontaneous (non-dynamical) breaking (effective hiding) of the\nunitary quantum mechanical dynamical symmetry (superposition) is considered. It\nrepresents an especial but very interesting case of the general formalism of\nthe spontaneous symmetry breaking (effective hiding). Conceptual analogies with\nspontaneous breaking of the gauge symmetry in Weinberg-Sallam\u0027s electro-weak\ninteraction are pointed out. Also, consequences of the spontaneous\nsuperposition breaking in the measurement process are discussed. Measurement\ncan be considered as a typical Landau\u0027s continuous phase transition with\nspontaneous superposition breaking (effective hiding) effectively corresponding\nto collapse. Here critical values of the order parameters are determined by\nHeisenberg\u0027s uncertainty relations.",
