Sep 26 at 6:39 comment added alanf There is no cloning of universes. Rather there is a continuously infinite set of initially identical universes that become different over time physics.stackexchange.com/questions/502211/… Conservation laws hold in any one universe because of decoherence arxiv.org/abs/0903.1802. The expectation values of observed quantities, which is the only physically sensible way of adding up across universes, arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0405161 also don't change for conserved quantities.
Sep 26 at 5:40 comment added Mercury Sorry but i am not fan of MWI. Its even worse than CI. Dont you think that this cloning of Universes is against conservation laws on a huge scale?
Sep 25 at 6:27 comment added alanf No. QM leads to the MWI arxiv.org/abs/1111.2189 and explains interference effects straightforwardly because the relevant equations of motion describe what is happening in reality. de Broglie Bohm doesn't explain anything more than Everett arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0403094 and has severe problems with explaining the predictions of relativistic quantum theories unlike Everett arxiv.org/abs/2205.00568
Sep 24 at 22:18 comment added Mercury Do you distinguish CI and QM or accept that they coincide today? De Broglie Bohm seems more suitable to explain my question because the tail of a real wave can interfere at point B with its head, and then guide the particle to max spot on the screen.
Sep 24 at 21:26 comment added alanf An explanation of the outcome of an experiment is an account of what is happening in reality to produce that outcome. The CI claims that no such account exists.
Sep 24 at 19:02 comment added Mercury You wrote "So the CI gives no explanation of what is happening in interference experiments or in any other kind of experiment. Quantum theory, when taken seriously as an account of what is happening in reality, does gives explanations." Did you mean "does not give explanations"?
