The Many Worlds Theory of quantum behavior says that every time there is a quantum event, a world splits off with everything in it the same, except in that other world the quantum event didn't happen.
Many of every one of us.Ĭopies of you are generated thousands of times per second. We just have to accept that there is more than one of us in the universe. Putting his professional reputation on the line with this audacious yet entirely reasonable book, Carroll says that the crisis can now come to an end. Academics discourage students from working on the "dead end" of quantum foundations.
Science popularizers keep telling us how weird it is, how impossible it is to understand. Quantum mechanics has always had obvious gaps-which have come to be simply ignored. Most physicists haven’t even recognized the uncomfortable truth: physics has been in crisis since 1927. His reconciling of quantum mechanics with Einstein’s theory of relativity changes, well, everything. Already hailed as a masterpiece, Something Deeply Hidden shows for the first time that facing up to the essential puzzle of quantum mechanics utterly transforms how we think about space and time. Sean Carroll, theoretical physicist and one of this world’s most celebrated writers on science, rewrites the history of 20th century physics. Join us for a reconsideration of time and space with Sean Carroll in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.One of Publishers Weekly’s “Most Anticipated Books of the Fall”Īs you read these words, copies of you are being created. Carroll says that the crisis can now come to an end. Science reporters continue to tell us how weird it is, how impossible to understand. His thinking begins with the fact that most physicists haven’t acknowledged and uncomfortable truth: physics has been in crisis since 1927. Sean Carroll’s latest book “Something Deeply Hidden: Quantum Worlds and the Emergence of Spacetime” may change everything you think you know about space and time.
