No. Today’s quantum physics (quantum field theory) is fully compatible with relative time. Edit: @PeterDonis for the win! -

Not at all. Quantum field theory, to which ordinary non-relativistic QM is an approximation, takes relativity into account and is... -

In the other thread yous said you were not interested in theories that will not be around in 100+ years. Well, this one has not been... -

We don’t. All we observe is the dot on the photographic film screen where the photon landed and was absorbed. As an aside, any... -

Then why would you make a claim that it isn't matter? -

Nobody told me that in school. But yes, it's true that not everything you get told in school is correct. However, it's easy to check... -

J. J. Thomson first showed this in experiments with cathode ray tubes in 1897. With the technology of the time, he was not able to get a... -

You might be remembering a version of the experiment where you do try to detect which slit the electron went through so you have... -

I don't know where you are getting any of this from. "Matter" is just a word; it can mean lots of different things. But its most common... -

Many popsci presentations really grossly misrepresent “the” double slit experiment. There are at least three different types of “double... -

Not for the EPR state. It is still an entangled state and not a product state. When EPR says (something like) "after T, the two...
