    Does wave function of an entangled particle collapse instantly?

    Either one can show that there are differences - for example to change the sequence of experiments provide changes in measurements - or: there's maybe just talk about measurement problems when the distances are significant enough to result in A can be detected before B is measured. See for...

    Do superpositions violate conventional logic (philosophy)?

    I think that 'many worlds' is a relatively funny science fiction idea. I do not understand how it can be taken seriously.

    How Does the Double-Slit Quantum Eraser Work with Walborn's Setup?

    I am also curious to hear about xts succeed. Meanwhile, a commentary on QWP in Walborns setup: After the two QWP’s are passed, the two paths are circularly polarized Right = R or Left = L. This gives 4 possible outcomes:Path1,Path2= R,L OR L,R OR R,R OR L,L. If we put a...

    Quantum mechanics and causality/determinism.

    When we think of real numbers or complex numbers nothing is too small to get a number. If we think of a quantized world needs something - probably - be too small to make any difference.

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    A simpler version: The p - photons are measured horizontally / vertically = x/y. The sister - photons s are measured at + 45 / - 45 degrees = +/-. The measuring state with regard to polarization is describe by base x/y for p and +/- for s. I start with the first measured and then...

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    Last submit at Jul27-11 / p 4 at PFQ or search on UChr. OK the math could be more readable - but hopefully understandable with a little patience.

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    No not the rate of p = V to s = + - but the connection between polarizing and 'half wave' difference. The 'half wave' difference are the difference between transmission with the PBS and reflection.

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    'FTL - gedanken experiment' is a topic in this forum - where this was post # 13 Argument against was that this kind never gave any difference. I think it does in this case - and therefore I have tried to follow the experiment via formulas in the hope of obtaining a concrete discussion of...

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    Re: FTL-gedanken experiment but the s and p swapped - I try with formulas to show that it should give a difference. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why I think the order may be important in some types of experiments: S-photons...

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important

    Entanglement – the order of measurements can be important. I try now with some formulas - hope it's reasonably understandable: First known substance - unless I am floundering in it: I imagine that the p - photons is measured first (p1) and meets a PBS (0) (x = horizontal and y = vertical)...

    How Does the Double-Slit Quantum Eraser Work with Walborn's Setup?

    Walborn = ‘Double-slit quantum eraser’ with double slit and eventually quarter wave plates. http://grad.physics.sunysb.edu/~amarch/Walborn.pdf p. 5 section V: ”Figure 2 shows the standard Young interference pattern obtained with the double slit placed in the path of photon s, without...

    Do superpositions violate conventional logic (philosophy)?

    It is not impossible to imagine that we extend QM with various unnecessary ideas and concepts and thereby achieves a local 'realistic' description of the double-slit problem. First postulate: the space is not empty - with dark matter and dark energy it is not so unlikely - but then we have...

    Wheeler's Delayed Choice Experiment

    The problem with Wheelers experiment and the like is that the explanations either be very mysterious - or stick to QM theory and do not think! The latter is the safest because almost all models of understanding have errors compared to the theory - for example by being (gross) simplifications...

    Bell's Theorem: Proving Its Vitality in Local Realistic Models

    Speaking of Bell and EPR discussion: the starting point was theoretical philosophical speculation . Only much later turning to experimental results.
