EXCERPT: [...] It has long seemed that physicists must just accept that the intuitive everyday "classical" laws of physics that govern macroscopic objects do not apply in the microscopic realm. But the new model of Many Interacting Worlds (MIW) developed by Howard Wiseman, a quantum physicist at Griffith University, in Brisbane, Australia, and colleagues may offer an explanation for these bizarre phenomena that relies only on common-sense classical rules. With the help of an FQXi grant of almost $104,000, they are now investigating how interference from these other universes may affect our own—and whether there is a way to find proof of the existence of parallel realities in the lab. "We prefer to follow Einstein (and like-minded others) in seeking a more realistic theory," Wiseman says. "We’ve taken a fresh perspective involving a fundamental shift from previous quantum interpretations...."
