Topic > Interpretation of Many Worlds - 1276

If you don't like reading about the multiverse there's a parallel universe where you love it by Ariel Biederman With every decision you make, you know there will be some sort of outcome. But how great is this achievement? Bigger than you think. Every time you make a choice, an entire universe is created in which you make a different choice. This is called The Many Worlds Interpretation, established by Hugh Everett III, which essentially states that multiple branes (each a universe) collide, causing the Big Bang. Universes recover and pass through time until they are pulled back, but they do not collapse, making every possibility a reality. That would make every single possibility a reality somewhere sooner or later. In contrast to the many-worlds interpretation is John Wheeler's anthropic principle, which states that an observer is needed to cause a wavefunction to collapse and not just branes bouncing into each other. A good example of this idea is Schrodinger's cat experiment. In this test, a cat is placed in a sealed box with a flask filled with poison and radioactive material. If an internal monitor detects radioactivity (just one decaying atom) the flask will break and the poison will kill the cat. This makes the cat simultaneously alive and dead until you open the box and make an observation. Another popular thought is string theorist Brian Greene's 9 types of parallel universes. These 9 types cover each of the different ways parallel universes could exist. The first of the nine is quilted. Quilted universes could only work in an infinite universe. With an infinite amount of space, every possible event will occur, and an infinite number of times. However, the speed of light prevents us from becoming aware of these other identical areas. The next... middle of the paper... verses around us. Even though there is no proof that any of this information is true, there are still several clues or evidence that lead some people to believe that parallel universes exist. An example is ghosts and paranormal activity. Some say that ghosts simply come from parallel universes that are crossing into ours. There might even be a kingdom of the dead! Along with ghosts, dreams might have something to do with parallel universes. It is said that sleep is just a slice of death, could dreams be a window into an alternate universe? Déjà vu may also have something to do with multiverse theory. You may think that the person you meet for the first time seems familiar, but you can't explain why. Parallel universe. You may think you've done something before. Parallel universe. Walk into a room and forget why? Parallel universe!
