Is Copanhagen physics true or has it been disproven? I seriously hope that dude is wrong.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Copenhagen is the capital od Denmark, a country in Europe.
 
You refer to an interpretation of quantum mechanics, which cannot be proven wrong-- only the quantum mechanics itself. That is known to not be consistent at all scales with general relativity, but that doesn't necessarily make quantum mechanics wrong. For my own part, I think it is naive to imagine that a physical theory could be exactly correct in every situation.

It is NOT Copenhagen physics, it is Copenhagen Interpretation! There's a difference.

It appears that this is going to be a philosophy topic, so this thread will be moved to the appropriate forum.
