DrChinese's latest activity

I will point out that the descriptions you give seem to be contradicted in the various papers I reference. They use a slightly...

I totally agree (see my post #53). Yes I know. I still think it's relevant. In any case, if you think it's better to discuss it in a...

1. I follow this. Just was looking for a take on the "when" of A's state change: After the PBS before detection? Or only after...

I'm on your side on this! In effect, what I am trying to argue is that the entanglement observed in DCES is as real as any other, but...

To be clear, I do not think the type of post-selection used in the DCSE experiment is cherry-picking. I agree with @DrChinese that it's...

QM does not require that every instance of entanglement must have been created through an interaction between the two particles. It...

I don't know of any experimental team, anywhere, anytime, in any area of science, that considers a preconceived blind selection criteria...

Yes, you are correct. I would argue that the swap operation causes the A/D entanglement. I believe the following description is fair...

But this reasoning doesn't work for the case @DrChinese is really concerned about, where A and D are measured before the swap operation...

This is a particular feature of Bohmian mechanics that arises because it presupposes a preferred direction for time evolution. In...

From the data you cannot tell if anything was done on B/C first or on A/D. But your/BM explanations are different!

If I have to choose one of those, I choose i). You cannot actually observe the A/D correlation before you do the swap. The data from...

Again, not disputing your characterization, just want to be sure I hear what you are saying. After A's detection as V>: B is in state...

Not disputing this characterization, just want to be sure I hear what you are saying. The state of A does not change upon passing...

The state of A before it passes through the PBS would be ##\mathrm{tr}_\mathrm{B}\ket{\Phi^+}_\mathrm{AB} =...
