- 6d6b73 9y agoI have to disagree. EM drive is theoretically impossible with Copenhagen interpretation but with Pilot Wave not only it's possible but we can improve its efficiency. It would make sense that similar situation is possible with quantum computing.
- smaddox 9y agoHow does pilot wave theory make violating conservation of momentum possible?

- kelvich 9y agoQuickly looked at what is written in other articles by these authors, and it's total BS. Sadly that these 'research' made it way to sciencealert.com.
- deepnotderp 9y agoWe have no idea why the EM drive works. It doesn't seem to make any sense as it seems to violate conservation of momentum, but experiments have the ultimate say.
- Tomminn 9y agoPilot wave theory is actually a small change to the mathematical model in QM, but it is one which never affects anything that you can measure in the lab. It is correct to say that all interpretations lead to the same predictions, but not actually correct to say they're the same mathematical model.
