Many Worlds Interpretation


The research I have carried out has led me consider some theories of quantum mechanics. Although these theories are quite weighty and hard to get your head around, they are actually really interesting in relation to chance connections and explanations about the world. The Many Worlds interpretation in simply terms is the theory formulated by Hugh Everett in 1957 as an explanation of quantum mechanics. When an action is undertaken you are left with the result of that action in our reality, the basic principle of the theory is that all possible results have actually happened but in another world. Everything that possibly could have occurred in our past but didn’t is thought to have happened in another universe. Although this theory sounds far fetched it is actually one of the main theories of quantum mechanics. I am interested in how I might represent this graphically and have also been doing more research into the field of quantum mechanics.
