PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Deviations from classical action and D’alembert's principle, why is D’alembert's principle not applicable to QM?.Why do you think this is the case? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Spatial separation of entangled particles implies physical separability?.If you mean they usually move away from the source in different directions, yes, that's a common feature of such experiments. I'm not... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Spatial separation of entangled particles implies physical separability?.What do you mean by "complete physical disconnection", and why do you think "distinguishability and spatial separation" would... -

Like.
That is incorrect. Also, the experiment shown is not the double slit with single photons, but a double slit experiment done with a light... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Transit time for a round trip to Alpha Centuri....You can't outrun a light ray that's moving in the same direction as you are. That's not a matter of who is "seeing" it; it's an... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.How are you going to post-select that subensemble of runs? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.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... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.No. Again, you are assuming that getting a pair of photons out implies that the electron-positron pair was in the singlet state going... -

I would say that the swap operation implies the A/D entanglement. The difference is that "implication" is logical rather than physical... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.Again, you are assuming this is the case. I am saying I think that assumption is not justified. But you are still claiming they are... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Graduate Entanglement swapping and Bohmian mechanics.But this reasoning doesn't work for the case @DrChinese is really concerned about, where A and D are measured before the swap operation... -
