Each translucent sheet is a "world" โ a branch of the universal wavefunction.
When a measurement particle crosses the glowing plane, decoherence splits that
branch in two, weighted by the Born-rule probability you set. Every existing
branch keeps evolving; nothing is ever deleted, only decreasingly overlapping.
|ฮจโฉ = ฮฃแตข cแตข |branch_iโฉ, ฮฃ|cแตข|ยฒ = 1
after measurement: |ฮจโฉ โ โp|branch_Aโฉ + โ(1โp)|branch_Bโฉ
S = โฮฃ pแตขยทlogโ(pแตข) (entanglement/branch entropy)
- Branch probability split โ the Born-rule weighting p of the "up" outcome versus (1โp) for "down"; unequal splits make one branch visibly thicker/brighter.
- Decoherence rate โ how fast the measurement particle travels down the tree, i.e. how quickly branches separate and stop interfering.
- Trigger measurement โ sends a new measurement event down every currently-open branch, doubling the branch count each time.
