Thanks very much Dale and Peter for your responses.
Dale I am ignoring QFT for the moment as I missed the 50's. :-) While, I appreciate how it extends SR into QM realm, I want to concentrate on SR purely in its classical form for this line of questioning.
Peter, I have not quite given into...
Hi Peter and Nurgatory,
Thank you both for your kind and educational responses.
Just to be clear I am not trying to argue with SR experimental results, nor am I trying to argue with quantum mechanical results. I am just trying to understand the implications of entanglement on our...
Thanks for your response Peter. I appreciate that the comparisons are done post-event and consequently rely on analysis of past events from the perspective of the observer.
However, I disagree with your thinking and therefore your conclusion in the second paragraph of your response.
What I...
Thanks very much for the reply Ookke.
I am familiar with the possibilities regarding information sharing and hidden variables. What I find intriguing is that the correlation happens in what we would classify as absolute time rather than in relative time. The experiment I reference clearly shows...
I have a question on the tension between special relativity and quantum mechanics, so please correct the category if this question is in the wrong location.
I was looking at the write-up of an experiment: “Causality, relativity and quantum correlation experiments with moving reference frames”...
Hi Simon, Accept point re Lord Kelvin. By some accounts, it was taken out of context too. Press was just as bad in those days. :-) Concur with Michelson as genuine - this can be traced to actual source text.
As long as you are happy I guess.
Applied versus theoretical. Working within the known versus exploring the unknown.
The world requires both types to advance, the dreamers and the doers have their place.
"There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now, All that remains is more and more precise measurement."
Lord Kelvin just before the most significant advances in physics.
"Physics never captures truth, it is statements about our universe that are yet to be disproved."
