PeterDonis's latest activity

A new thread has been started by @Demystifier on the topic of how BM accounts for entanglement swapping experiments. The new thread is...

As a note for future readers of the thread: BM violates Bell's locality assumption, so it does not have to violate counterfactual...

Adding more doesn't change what I said. See below. Yes, it is. The phrase "whether their two photons are entangled" only makes sense...

Since it explicitly used the word "challenge", you should not be surprised that readers interpret it that way.

Note that this claim is interpretation dependent: it presupposes an interpretation where the wave function is the state of the system...

Please be aware that according to the rules of this subforum, claims that a particular interpretation of QM is wrong (or right, for that...

So for the entire ensemble, there will be no Bell inequality violations. Ok. If we assume zero orbital angular momentum in the center...

@PeterDonis in the closed thread you ask me about a reference for the claim that the quantum potential is not considered fundamental in...

What are you basing this on? Are you assuming that the "bunch of electron-positron pairs" was created by a process that ensures that...

Your reason is basically that you want to measure the magnitude of magnetic moments. But there are much simpler ways of measuring the...

Yes: it adds the actual position and velocity of each particle. But it also changes how the wave function, which is also present in...

The way to answer that would be to calculate the energy of each state. Note that by calling the ##5s^2## state the "ground" state you...

Yes, because the orthogonal analyzer is measuring a different observable, and eigenstates of the first are equal-amplitude...

It seems like the reason you are looking at this is to see if reducing or eliminating the magnetic moment changes what happens in an S-G...

This means the silver atom is now charged when it passes through the second S-G apparatus--which completely breaks the apparatus, since...
