If you haven’t seen it already, the front page of the July 5th issue of Nature<\/a> has an amusing picture inspired by the “Many Worlds” interpretation of quantum theory. (I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. One world is enough for me, thank you very much.) Included in this issue is an essay on the many worlds interpretation<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\nAll three approaches have their adherents, but for what seems to be a growing number of physicists, especially those working in quantum information and cosmology, it is Everett’s alternative that wins out…\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hmm, well we can run an experiment, err, I mean a social science experiment, aka a poll. Okay so these categories are subject to interpretation. For a rough guide here is wikipedia’s interpretation of quantum theories<\/a> page.

\nAlso in this issue is an article Many lives in many worlds<\/a> by Max Tegmark arguing for the many-worlds interpretation as well as an article Surfing the multiverse<\/a> by Gary Wolfe describing many worlds and science fiction.
\nFinally, and perhaps more exciting than all this many worldliness, in this universe it appears that low enegy acoustic plasmons at metal surfaces have been observed<\/a>. Word as to whether this observation has been made in other universes awaits the construction of a quantum computer \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
