I am not interested in Many Worlds Interpretation because I think it’s mental and after some personal research I found out that it wasn’t (despite some claims otherwise) popular among physicists at all. But in the orthodox interpretation, what does being in a superposition mean. Does it mean it isn’t in any position yet before it is measured and has several possibilities. Or is it actually in multiple states/places at once. In the talk of Serge Haroche it seems like the latter https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=RM7_we-F7hQ also the way David Wineland’s research is being described here www.nobelprize.org/uploads/2018/06/popular-physicsprize2012.pdf seems to say it’s in multible states at once. But I’ve also seen it described (for instance by David Mermin) as being nowhere untill measured. Which one is it?
