Hi,
I’m a science teacher at a small, country high school in Australia.
A student has recently come to me for assistance in writing her major English project – a science fiction story – because she needs to add some realism to her descriptions.
The basis of the story is a scientist who is trying to disprove the ‘many-worlds theory’ – I think the inspiration comes from the movie ‘Bounce’.
I’ve been able to answer most of her questions, but some still puzzle me. Namely :
*What experiment / finding would disprove the ‘many-worlds’ theory?
*Is there any such research going on at the moment? &,
*Which universities/institutions would most likely be researching in this area?
There are a few more but these three are the main ones she is concerned with.
I’ve started reading through these sites, but this area really isn’t my specialty so I’m finding it a little confusing:

Any help that you could give will be most appreciated
