Abstract
Various reconstructions of finite-dimensional quantum mechanics result in a formally real Jordan algebra
A
and a last step remains to conclude that
A
is the self-adjoint part of a C*-algebra. Using a quantum logical setting, it is shown that this can be achieved by postulating that there is a locally tomographic model for a composite system consisting of two copies of the same system. Local tomography is a feature of classical probability theory and quantum mechanics; it means that state tomography for a multipartite system can be performed by simultaneous measurements in all subsystems. The quantum logical definition of local tomography is sufficient, but it is less restrictive than the prevalent definition in the literature and involves some subtleties concerning the so-called spin factors.
