Many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics
Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2008)
| Abstract | The Many-Worlds Interpretation (MWI) is an approach to quantum mechanics according to which, in addition to the world we are aware of directly, there are many other similar worlds which exist in parallel at the same space and time. The existence of the other worlds makes it possible to remove randomness and action at a distance from quantum theory and thus from all physics | |||||||||
