“It’s fairly simple,” Dr. Wilson Goldstein tried to explain it all to his colleagues, “If souls are quantum wavefunctions entangled across two bodies, then by carefully engineering the interaction Hamiltonian, we can swap the identities by allowing one wavefunction to collapse into the other’s physical vessel. Time evolution under this coupling could produce a near-perfect transfer of self.”
Yet he was pretty sure it was falling on deaf ears. Ever since the Great Shift put him into Isabella’s body, they hadn’t taken him seriously. And yet here he was presently an equation that could offer a potential way to reverse the effects of the Shift, to get everyone back in their own bodies, and they still weren’t paying attention. The Catch-22 nature of the situation wasn’t lost on him. The solution for undoing the body swap was right in front of them, but they just couldn’t see it because of the body Dr. Goldstein happened to have been swapped into...
