Quantum Entanglement: Particle Connection Effects

In summary: In what way are they entangled?Their quantum spins on any given axis are anti-coorelated. What you measure for spin on an axis will be measured to be opposite on the other "partner" on the same axis as long as they stay entangled. What happens on the other side of an event horizon is out of the range of observation. Nothing happens to it's orphaned partner.Before these informations leak out to rest of universe these particles are entangled. They are somehow acting in universe in special way (talking about quantum effects).So what happens when someone checks information on first particle. It seems universe acts as it knows all.Information is not lost when object gets crashed. But i don't know when

Are all particles entangled or connected to another?
Lets say we have 2 particles that are entangled . one falls into a black hole what happens to its partner?

Nothing. Why should it?

Ok so what happens to one dousnt happen to the other?? In what way are they entangled?

How do you go from "all particles" to "2 particles"? Where is the train of thought in between these two?

Let's try to guess what it means to have two entangled particles.
It means that one particle have some information about other, and other about first. Rest of universe doesn't have these particular informations.
Before these informations leak out to rest of universe these particles are entangled. They are somehow acting in universe in special way (talking about quantum effects).
So what happens when someone checks information on first particle. It seems universe acts as it knows all.

About black hole, Hawking says that information is not lost when object gets crashed. But i don't know when its get out of black hole or if it is instanteous.

2 different questions. .

Uh ... why would we want to guess when we KNOW what it means?

Related to Quantum Entanglement: Particle Connection Effects

1. What is quantum entanglement?

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum physics where two or more particles become linked in such a way that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other, regardless of the distance between them.

2. How does quantum entanglement occur?

Quantum entanglement occurs when two particles interact in a way that their properties become correlated. This can happen through processes such as spontaneous emission or scattering.

3. What are the implications of quantum entanglement?

The most significant implication of quantum entanglement is that it challenges our understanding of how particles behave and interact with each other. It also has potential applications in fields such as quantum computing and cryptography.

4. Can quantum entanglement be observed?

No, quantum entanglement itself cannot be observed. However, its effects can be observed through experiments that demonstrate non-local correlations between entangled particles.

5. Is quantum entanglement instantaneous?

While it may seem like quantum entanglement allows for instantaneous communication between particles, it does not violate the principle of causality. The correlations between entangled particles are established at the moment of entanglement, but information cannot be transmitted faster than the speed of light.
