Tunneling in the Many Interacting World interpretation

Summary edit

Description
English: In the Many Interacting World interpretation of QM particle behave classically, apart from interacting with their own copies in other worlds. As this interaction is repulsive, it can give one of the copies enough energy to jump over a barrier (tunneling).
