Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.If only Everett was allowed to keep his original thesis title "The Theory of the Universal Wavefunction".. -

Yes, this is correct. See my post #135. -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.I got the Emergent Multiverse from David Wallace (just received it) so after I've had time to read it, I can probably answer this... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.Wouldn't this lead you then conclude that in QM+Copenhagen, the only properties intrinsic to "the object itself" does not include the... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad A differential geometry question from continuum mechanics.I am not aware of a way to in general fix this integral in the sense that there is a unique 1:1 correspondence between this integral and... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.In my head, I've always associated mass as part of the particle/object (ignoring QFT for now). Is it common to argue that dynamical... -

Bohmian mechanics would be one obvious case: the particle positions and velocities are the state of the particle, just as in Newtonian... -

So you say that it is not the same thing, i.e., your answer to my question is a clear "no". Thus you admit that my question has a clear... -
Matterwave reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM with
Agree.
It is in the MWI. -
Matterwave reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM with
Haha.
Sorry, I can't resist. :oldbiggrin: -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.Sorry to interject, but it might help to draw out the exact experiment in mind. What is placed where, when do you do what, and what kind... -
Matterwave reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM with
Love.
Bear in mind that, if you find it hard to believe that the MWI actually says this because it seems so outlandish, you're not alone. I... -
Matterwave replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.Maybe if I reread this a few more times it will click. Maybe the only way is to read some more books on the subject. Yeah I suppose I... -

Because the branches are decohered, and because in the overall wave function you are entangled with the cat--and both you and the cat...
