Although several versions of many-worlds have been proposed since Hugh Everett's original work, they all contain one key idea: the equations of physics that model the time evolution of systems without embedded observers are sufficient for modelling systems which do contain observers ; in particular there is no observation-triggered wave function collapse which the Copenhagen interpretation proposes.

The phrase " many-worlds " is due to Bryce DeWitt, who was responsible for the wider popularisation of Everett's theory, which had been largely ignored for the first decade after publication.

DeWitt's phrase " many-worlds " has become so much more popular than Everett's " Universal Wavefunction " or Everett-Wheeler's " Relative State Formulation " that many forget that this is only a difference of terminology ; the content of both of Everett's papers and DeWitt's popular article is the same.

Hugh Everett's many-worlds interpretation ( MWI ) is one of several mainstream interpretations of quantum mechanics.

Everett's interpretation is perfectly consistent with John Bell's experiments and makes them intuitively understandable.

Everett's many-worlds interpretation is an attempt to demonstrate that the wavefunction alone is sufficient to account for all our observations.

When we see the particle detectors flash or hear the click of a Geiger counter then Everett's theory interprets this as our wavefunction responding to changes in the detector's wavefunction, which is responding in turn to the passage of another wavefunction ( which we think of as a " particle ", but is actually just another wave-packet ).

This argument of Everett's is sometimes called the " redundancy argument ", since the superfluous particles are redundant in the sense of Occam's razor.

According to some supporters of Everett's theory, if the ( never collapsing ) wave function is taken to be physically real, then it is natural to interpret the theory as having the same many worlds as Everett's theory.

In Everett's conception the mind of an observer is split by the measuring process as a consequence of the decoherence induced by measurement.

Both had an interest in DIY, but without the skill to match-in the spirit of Kenny Everett's Reginald Prescott-and who later reappeared post-Absolutely in Barry Welsh is Coming.

The key advance over Everett's Relative State Interpretation is to regard the conjugate state vector of the Dirac formalism as ontologically real, incorporating a part of the formalism that, prior to TIQM, had been interpretationally neglected.

The tragedy of Everett's father's death became prominent once more in the context of his mother's pending death and his sister's suicide, and as a result the song " Baby Genius " is written for Hugh Everett III ( his father ).

Hugh Everett's many-worlds interpretation attempts to solve the problem by suggesting there is only one wavefunction, the superposition of the entire universe, and it never collapses — so there is no measurement problem.

With the aid of a cadre of female " data analysts ", including Françoise Ulam, who performed computations on mechanical calculators, and whose efforts were supplemented and confirmed by Everett's use of his slide rule, they carried out laborious and extensive computations of many thermonuclear scenarios.

This led to a running gag on Everett's subsequent appearances on the show, when he would come up with new ways of damaging the wand, such as attempting to cut it in half with shears.

Everett's music has also been featured on a number of films, including American Beauty (" Cancer for the Cure "), Road Trip (" Mr. E's Beautiful Blues "), Holes (" Eyes Down ," " Mighty Fine Blues "), Shrek (" My Beloved Monster "), Shrek 2 (" I Need Some Sleep "), Shrek The Third (" Royal Pain " and " Losing Streak "), Shrek the Halls (" The Stars Shine in the Sky Tonight "), Hellboy II: The Golden Army (" Beautiful Freak "), The Big White ( Last Stop ; This Town ) Hot Fuzz (" Souljacker, pt. 1 "), as well as most of the music in Yes Man.

The indexes to Edward Everett's Orations and Speeches ( 1850-1859 ), and Washington Irving's Life and Letters ( 1861-1864 ), were from his hand.

The idea of MWI originated in Everett's Princeton Ph. D. thesis " The Theory of the Universal Wavefunction ", developed under his thesis advisor John Archibald Wheeler, a shorter summary of which was published in 1957 entitled " Relative State Formulation of Quantum Mechanics " ( Wheeler contributed the title " relative state "; Everett originally called his approach the " Correlation Interpretation ", where " correlation " refers to quantum entanglement ).

Shortly after Everett's well-received remarks, Lincoln spoke for only a few minutes.

Then, too, the utmost clinical flexibility is necessary in judiciously combining carefully timed family-oriented home visits, single and group office interviews, and appropriate telephone follow-up calls, if the worker is to be genuinely accessible and if the predicted unhealthy outcome is to be actually averted in accordance with the principles of preventive intervention.
