[QUOTE="Harte, post: 219367, member: 443"] IIRC, the Many Worlds Interpretation (MWI) involves quantum events, not sandwich events. The biggest difference between MWI and Copenhagen is that MWI postulates NO wave form collapse, while Copenhagen postulates wave form collapse happens upon observation. In MWI, the observation is made in one universe, which puts that action of measurement into the universe where it was observed. The probability wave is unchanged everywhere else. Copenhagen says that observation causes collapse, meaning the probability wave is changed for the observer. No other universe required. Both are damn faulty interpretations, by the way. As an aside, "observation" in both interpretations are simply measurements and have nothing to do with consciously observing something. Both interpretations allow for measurements made by automation, and "measurements" made post-observation by inanimate material - like a photon increasing the energy of an object it strikes can be a "measurement."
