Tafsiran banyak-dunia

Tafsiran banyak-dunia (MWI) ialah tafsiran mekanik kuantum yang menegaskan bahawa fungsi gelombang universal ialah secara objektif nyata, dan tiada keruntuhan fungsi gelombang. Ini membayangkan bahawa semua kemungkinan hasil pengukuran kuantum direalisasikan secara fizikal di beberapa "dunia" atau alam semesta. Berbeza dengan beberapa tafsiran lain, seperti tafsiran Copenhagen, evolusi realiti secara keseluruhan dalam MWI ialah deterministik tegar dan tempatan. Banyak-dunia juga dipanggil rumusan keadaan relatif atau tafsiran Everett, selepas ahli fizik Hugh Everett, yang pertama kali mencadangkannya pada tahun 1957. Bryce DeWitt mempopularkan formulasi itu dan menamakannya many-worlds pada tahun 1970-an.
