MrRobotoToo replied to the thread I Does Time-Symmetry Imply Retrocausality? How does the Quantum World Say “Maybe”?.Is this related to the fact that retrocausality violates the PBR theorem's assumption that it's possible to prepare systems... -

Hi everyone! A new paper by Wharton & Price was submitted to ArXiv ten days ago (https://arxiv.org/abs/2507.15128). There, they discuss...

MrRobotoToo reacted to Ibix's post in the thread B Why is Lorentz Ether Theory Hard to Rule Out? with Like.
I think you are mixing up a naive mechanical ether theory, which might have an ether wind to deflect the laser, and LET, which is...

I'm not disagreeing that entanglement swapping works. I'm disagreeing with the concept that entanglement swapping doesn't involve a...

Great question! I'm not sure I can answer it. But generally I agree that some kind of mechanism might exist if you bring...

Skeptical.
I don't think so, because there is no reality in quantum mechanics. -
MrRobotoToo replied to the thread I Does Time-Symmetry Imply Retrocausality? How does the Quantum World Say “Maybe”?.But isn’t that interpretation-dependent? Although it may be the case that the experimental data are underdetermined with respect to the...

Wow.
Whoops! :smile: They most certainly do nothing of the kind. There’s no connection with entanglement swapping ("W") of the type in the... -
MrRobotoToo replied to the thread I Does Time-Symmetry Imply Retrocausality? How does the Quantum World Say “Maybe”?.But isn't it straightforward to construct a retrocausal hidden variable theory that reproduces the quantum predictions of delayed-choice...

MrRobotoToo replied to the thread I Does Time-Symmetry Imply Retrocausality? How does the Quantum World Say “Maybe”?.Price and Wharton have written a paper about these experiments as well. In the appendix they provide a (statistical) collider analysis...

Whoops! :smile: You are overlooking numerous experiments in which photons are entangled which have never existed in a common light...

We already know Nature violates some premise of the Bell proof, because Nature violates the Bell inequalities.

There is so much debate in terminology in quantum interpretations that fixing the right words is complicated. But the point is how do we...

MrRobotoToo replied to the thread I Does Time-Symmetry Imply Retrocausality? How does the Quantum World Say “Maybe”?.“I would argue that retrocausality is such a big hack that it destroys the whole Bell proof if accepted.” Most of the major...
