对量子力学的多世界解释进行实验检验的建议

Proposal for an experimental test of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics

R. Plaga

摘要:

量子力学的多世界解释预言了作为量子力学测量结果的不同平行世界的形成。这些平行世界之间的通信将通过实验排除这种解释的替代方案。描述了仅使用最先进的量子光学设备进行信息和能量的“世界间”交换的过程。单个离子在离子阱中与其环境隔离。然后在另一个系统上进行具有两个离散结果的量子力学测量,从而形成两个平行世界。根据测量的结果,在离子通过与环境的相互作用去聚之前,离子仅从一个平行世界被激发。在另一个平行世界中检测到这种激发是多世界解释的直接证据。这种方法可能在物理学和其他领域有重要的实际应用。

英文摘要:

The many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics predicts the formation of distinct parallel worlds as a result of a quantum mechanical measurement. Communication among these parallel worlds would experimentally rule out alternatives to this interpretation. A procedure for ``interworld'' exchange of information and energy, using only state of the art quantum optical equipment, is described. A single ion is isolated from its environment in an ion trap. Then a quantum mechanical measurement with two discrete outcomes is performed on another system, resulting in the formation of two parallel worlds. Depending on the outcome of this measurement the ion is excited from only one of the parallel worlds before the ion decoheres through its interaction with the environment. A detection of this excitation in the other parallel world is direct evidence for the many-worlds interpretation. This method could have important practical applications in physics and beyond.
