They're not popping up, the wave function simply branches. In Copenhagen you cut off the branches, in MWI you do not. Total energy in MWI is the weighted sum of the energy of all branches (weighted according to borns rule). If one coul

No, my question was: why did Copenhagen become generally accepted? You're saying: it just is, deal with it. That's unsatisfactory. Copenhagen proponents never seem to have to defend their stance, and you're telling me they do

Why is no one ever asking how to falsify Copenhagen vs other interpretations? What did Copenhagen ever do to deserve this privilege?

Of course it would falsify quantum mechanics, because MWI is nothing but the most austere version of QM. But people always speak of Copenhagen as if it was the standard interpretation of QM and everything else must be measurable different f

Technically, if you find a system that doesn't satisfy the Schrödinger equation, you have falsified many worlds. On the other hand, is the wave function collapse falsifiable? Note that MWI makes less assumptions than Copenhagen.

We've known for over one hundred years that all forms of energy influence the curvature of spacetime: mass, radiation, momentum, pressure. The source of the gravitational field is literally called the energy-stress-tensor. This, howeve

Relative to what it was before. It has an intrinsic size. Think of it in terms of matter density if you find it more comfortable. The density simply goes down over time; distandes between galaxies increase.

This would also be the case on a hypersphere, which would also satisfy the cosmological principle. A torus is not isotropic.

It's linear for small redshifts only. In general it depends on what distance you mean, but it's never linear. This does not change the validity of your argument of course. Check https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/

Your memory deceives you. The CMB was found accidentally in the sense that its discoverers were simply trying to reduce noise and found this one stubborn source, but it was predicted by Alpher twenty years prior. Can you go into how you wou

Little value? It's one of the assumptions that lead us to the prediction of the CMB which we then found. It's proved very fruitful, I'd say. Without the cosmological principle, modern cosmology is a complete non-starter. I&#x

There is nothing to agree on. You make measurements, see what model fits best, and then ask the model what will happen as time goes to infinity. And we did have a consensus: the standard model of cosmology. It fits the data best, that'
