Palavras-chave:

mecânica quântica, medições, vários mundos

Resumo

Descrevemos de forma relativamente acessível ao público em geral as principais ideias da interpretação de Vários Mundos da mecânica quântica. Discutimos a questão de seu caráter "contraintuitivo", citando algumas obras literárias escritas antes e depois de sua invenção.
