Liz, I presume you mean how they prepared the states, which is equivalent to an observer asking a question. "Two systems are created independently and exist is |0> |+> and |+> and |0> respectively. They are brought together and measured obtaining 4 possible states, one of which will for significant time measure zero which is a contradiction of quantum mechanics" but possibly just what you would expect for an MWI multiverse.
