I have seen a number of references to apparent experimental "proof" of wavefunction collapse
www.nature.com/articles/ncomms7665
However, I am still seeing propagation of the "Many Worlds" theory, which, and I admit that my understanding is limited, but the MW hass at its very core, a necessary foundational requirement that the wavefunction DOES NOT collapse.
Is this just an issue with terminology whereby the words "wavefunction collapse" are being used on an assumption that this is the mechanism which belies the measurement problem, thereby the misleasding titles should perhaps claim "quantum state superposition resolved to definite" rather than any actual reference to actual collapse of a wavefunction?
