"5. The wave interpretation," handwritten draft, circa 1955

Everett, Hugh

Published Jan 1, 1955• 0 citations

Abstract

Among Hugh Everett's files were a number of handwritten documents related to the writing of his thesis. Many of them were drafts of material that ultimately appeared in the long thesis. This document, entitled "5. The wave interpretation," was found in a file labeled "Footnotes," which consisted mostly of partial drafts of material (not necessarily footnotes) that was discussed in the long thesis. This document discusses Everett's own view, in contrast to Bohm's theory and Bopp's theory.
