Many Worlds at 50

September 21 - 24, 2007

Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics

Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

Perimeter Institute will host a conference to mark the 50th Anniversary
of Everett's paper proposing an interpretation of the universal quantum
wave function.

Many Worlds interpretations aim to provide a simple, natural and realist
understanding of unitary quantum theory without invoking wave function
collapse or any special role for measurement. But, fifty years after
Everett's original paper, there is still no consensus on whether they
succeed. The meeting will bring together leading supporters and
opponents of Many Worlds, in order to establish where the arguments
currently stand and to enable sustained discussion and debate. 

Scientific Organizers

Respectfully,
