    Question about Many Worlds branching in Quantum Mechanics

    Thanks DrChinese, I could cope with that type of MWI. I am not familiar with it (I am MWI blind). It sounds like all MWI that can sustain a coherent path. That makes sense.

    Question about Many Worlds branching in Quantum Mechanics

    My mind cannot contain MWI. I don't want it to. If MWI, were to be, is true (grammar??) then somewhere in the MW; David Hockney is going to burst into your room, car, swimming pool.. carrying a painting of you, your environment, your ipad, newspaper. Dave painted this picture 50 years ago...

    B Collapse and unitary evolution

    I think I agree with Demystifier, but I only guess. My view; The information about the particle (label) is left splattered at the event horizon. The information in the particle (value) goes into the non-3D arena for audit history purposes and for the pleasure of those in ((3D)+). Information...
