    The aim of this paper is to show how the Copenhagen Quantum Mechanics (CQM) can emerge from an 11 dimensional world consisting of matter fields and gravitational fields ruled by a deterministic Schrödinger equation, in the sense that eventually ``all experimental findings are explained in a deterministic way as a consequence of the time development of the wave function in configuration space according to Schrödinger's equation without the need of introducing a probabilistic interpretation.'' The matter field, moreover, is subsequently localized in a 4 dimensional subspace with a mechanism (``chooser'') which selects the localization sites in a way that ``at present cannot be controlled experimentally and therefore let the choice appear statistical''. In this scenario a relevant role is played by the so-called gravonons, a variety of massive gravitons (in a previous paper [the authors, ``Low temperature motion of hydrogen on metal surfaces signals breakdown of quantum mechanics in \(3+1\) dimensions'', J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 442, Article ID 012049, 13 p. (2013, \url{doi:10.1088/1742-6596/442/1/012049})] their mass is estimated roughly a tenth of that of an electron) which are ``elementary excitations ... induced by the sources (massive particles)''. What is more interesting now is that ``the fact that the dynamical law acts in the configuration space of fields living in 11 dimensional spacetime lets the events observed in 4 dimensional spacetime appear non-local.'' In some sense the usual quantum non locality, reputedly stemming out from the empyrical results of the Bell-type experiments, is in fact the result of a (local) deterministic 11 dimensional world acting behind the scenes of the usual 4 dimensional stage. Moreover all that ``is obtained without the need of introducing the process of collapse and a probabilistic interpretation of the wave function. Operators defining observables need not be introduced.'' The authors understandably also indulge in some philosophical reflexions (at some point even I. Kant's ghost is evoked) and to this effect they claim that their ``beables'' -- in the sense of J. Bell -- ``are the field configurations where matter fields extremely localized in three dimensional space are entangled to gravonons moving in 11 dimensional spacetime''. In the transition, however, from the 11 to the 3 dimenasional space, beables localized at different space points can appear simultaneaously giving rise to the Copenhagen non locality. The wave packet collapse is also replaced by ``deterministic localization processes'' that ``occur in the rest frame of the experiment within a very short time, but they are not immediate''. By comparing then the features of their Emerging QM (EQM) with that of the CQM and of the Bohmian QM (BQM) the authors finally find that EQM and BQM have many features in common, while they are predictably rather at variance with those of CQM. Important differences with BQM, however, are that EQM is Lorentz invariant, and that it ``provides the description of many other experiments which is not possible for Bohmian QM''. The hard, technical part of the paper is a mix of string theory (in particular the M-theory), theoretical quantum chemistry (in particular the techniques of ``configuration interaction'' and the Hamiltonian theory of the ``diffusion of an adsorbed particle on a solid surface'') and field theory. In so doing the authors tap into their remarkable previous experience in the physical chemistry of surfaces to find ideas and methods. The overall result appears to consist in trading hidden variables for hiden dimensions in order to recover a world coherent with local realism: this trade-off, however, hardly makes one considerably more comfortable.
