Abstract

International audience; It is often held that the peculiar statistical behaviour of quantum particles is due to their non-individuality. In this paper, a new suggestion is put forward: quantum particles are individuals, and the distinctive features of quantum statistics are determined solely by the fact that all the properties it describes are emergent relations.
