Imposition of relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem

In summary, Bell's theorem suggests that faster-than-light communication between particles separated by space-like distance is possible. This would imply going back in time and the creation of particles with opposite spin could be a misrepresentation. However, quantum mechanics and relativity would still hold. Do you agree?

Bell's theorem states that super-luminal communication exists between particles that are separated by space-like separation viz. faster than light transmission of information. There is spontaneity in this. Relativistically this would amount to going back in time. The state of creation of particles with opposite spin would actually be a misrepresentation of the particle whose spin is being represented as it would be a representation of the twin as it existed as some point in the past. Quantum mechanics and uncertainty would still hold. And so would relativity too.

Do you agree ?

Bell's theorem states nothing of the kind. You will find many threads on PF discussing this.

I will close this thread and invite you to read all the material on Bell here and on @DrChinese's website. You can start new threads with further questions you have, but note that discussion of personal theories is not allowed on PF.

1. What is Bell's theorem?

Bell's theorem is a concept in quantum mechanics that shows that the predictions made by quantum mechanics cannot be explained by any local hidden variable theory. In other words, it demonstrates that quantum entanglement exists and that the universe is inherently non-local.

2. What do you mean by "imposition of relativistic constraints"?

The imposition of relativistic constraints refers to the incorporation of the principles of special relativity into Bell's theorem. This is important because special relativity allows for the possibility of faster-than-light communication, which could potentially violate Bell's theorem.

3. Why is it important to impose relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem?

Imposing relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem is important because it helps to ensure that the theory is consistent with the principles of special relativity. This is crucial in order for the theory to accurately describe the behavior of particles at high speeds and in different frames of reference.

4. How are relativistic constraints incorporated into Bell's theorem?

Relativistic constraints are incorporated into Bell's theorem by considering the effects of time dilation and Lorentz contraction on the measurements of entangled particles. These relativistic effects must be taken into account in order to accurately predict the behavior of entangled particles in different frames of reference.

5. What are the implications of imposing relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem?

The implications of imposing relativistic constraints on Bell's theorem are significant. They help to further support the validity of quantum mechanics and the existence of non-locality in the universe. It also opens up new avenues for research and exploration in the field of quantum mechanics and the nature of reality.
