In the realm of quantum mechanics, explore the implications of the measurement problem on the interpretation of wave
function collapse and the nature of reality. Discuss how various interpretations such as the Copenhagen interpretation,
many - worlds interpretation, and pilot-wave theory attempt to resolve this fundamental paradox. Furthermore, analyze
the experimental evidence and theoretical frameworks that support or challenge each interpretation, highlighting the
philosophical and conceptual consequences of each approach on our understanding of the quantum world.

Why does primordial nuclesythesis end about 3 minutes after the Big Bang ?
select one :
a. The number densities of photons is too large at this time and the photons induce fission , stopping nuclei formation
b. The universe is tooo hot at t=3 minutes
c. The number densities of neutrons and protons and other nuclei are too small at this time and fusion fades out .
d. Deuterium has a lifetime of 3 minutes , so after this time no more deuterium survives as it decays away ?
