In another world, some bright mathematician has already come up with the proper diophantine equations to render MWI a non-starter. In this one, we still hold the actions predicted by Everett, DeWitt, & Wheeler to be true. Above it all, Strong, on their Holographic Mountain, Hugh Everett the 3rd, and Crom, laughs and heaps ridicule upon our puny intellects! Here we sit, entangled up in blue. 'Spooky action at a distance' can lead to a multiverse. 'Spooky action at a distance' can lead to a multiverse. Here's how. (msn.com)
We shall soon see if there are other analogs for coffee in other spacetimes? -----Original Message----- From: John Clark <[email protected]> To: 'Brent Meeker' via Everything List <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, Oct 24, 2022 4:25 pm Subject: Apparently objective quantum wave function collapse doesn't occur One of the main competitors to Everett's Many Worlds idea is Continuous Spontaneous Localization, the idea that an additional term needs to be added to Schrödinger's wave equation that randomly and very rarely collapses the wave function so there is only one objective reality. One great advantage of this idea is that it can be tested empirically, the experiment needed is conceptually simple but requires great skill to actually perform, but it has been done in the last few months and the results are negative, there is no sign of spontaneous quantum wave function collapse. For the idea to work now its advocates would have to add yet more mathematical bells and whistles to their new equation which is already very complicated and downright baroque, and that's always a bad sign. Many Worlds is looking better than ever.
