When an electron enters the two slit experiment the Pilot Wave in effect produces a little arrow pointing to one of the electrons with the caption under it saying "this is the real electron, ignore all the other ones". The Pilot Wave does absolutely nothing except erase unwanted universes, it is for this reason that some have called Pilot Wave theory the Many Worlds theory in denial. * *The Pilot Wave is unique in another way, it can affect matter but matter cannot affect it, if it's real it would be the first time in the history of physics where an exception to Newton's credo that for every action there is a reaction; even after the object it is pointing to is destroyed the pilot wave continues on, although now it is pointing at nothing and has no further effect on anything in the universe. Also, nobody has ever been able to make a relativistic version of the Pilot Wave Equation.Paul dirac found a version of Schrodinger's Equation that was compatible with special relativity as early as 1927. * *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* 8b0 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
