Everett and Evidence

Much of the evidence for quantum mechanics is statistical in nature. The Everett interpretation, if it is to be a candidate for serious consideration, must be capable of doing justice to reasoning on which statistical evidence in which observed relative frequencies that closely match calculated probabilities counts as evidence in favour of a theory from which the probabilities are calculated. S...

Claude Cachera

our synthetic ape C-il (46-58) gave a negative response when tested with purified native apolipoprotein C-fl. Double iminunodiffusion (Ouchterlony technique) of antibodies against our synthetic ape E (141-155) gave a positive immunoprecipitation line with Purified apolipoprotein E, which showed a partial identity with those obtained with polyclonal antibodies raised against the native protein. ...

The Folded Horn Antenna Everett

Antennas for radiating high-power mesoband electromagnetic signals are critical to the mission of upsetting electronics at a distance. High Power Microwave (HPM) weapons require efficient antennas that can fit into a small volume. Many of the existing antennas, such as pyramidal horns, are too large to fit onto many platforms when operated at low frequency. To address this problem, we investiga...

Chance in the Everett Interpretation

For the purposes of this chapter I take Everettian quantum mechanics (EQM) to be the unitary formalism of quantum mechanics divested of any probability interpretation, but including decoherence theory and the analysis of the universal state in terms of emergent, quasiclassical histories, or branches, along with their branch amplitudes, all entering into a vast superposition. I shall not be conc...
