Abstract
Hepp proposed to solve the measurement problem by taking as pointer ob servable one of the classical observables arising naturally in infinit e quantum systems. Here a time evolution is proposed which finishes th e measurement in finite time. This time evolution arises naturally as the limit of measurement interactions of finite systems when the parti cle number tends to infinity.
