The Many Worlds of Quantum Mechanics with Dr. Sean Carroll

The Frontiers of Physics Lecture Series brings renowned scientists to the UW to offer free lectures on exciting advances in physics with the goal of fostering an appreciation of science and technology in our community.

This October 9th, we’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Sean Carroll, and we hope you’ll mark your calendars for the lecture. Dr. Carroll will explore why the theory of quantum mechanics – one of the great intellectual achievements of the twentieth century – remains a source of mystery for most physicists.

Dr. Carroll will discuss the source of this puzzlement and explain why an increasing number of physicists are led to an apparently astonishing conclusion: that the world we experience is constantly branching into different versions, representing the different possible outcome of quantum measurements. This could have important consequences for quantum gravity and the emergence of spacetime.
