The discussion centers on the violation of Bell inequalities when counterfactual definiteness (CFD) is abandoned while maintaining locality. Participants argue that by accepting qubits instead of classical bits and rejecting realism, it is possible to achieve this violation through quantum mechanics (QM). The conversation references specific models and axioms, particularly emphasizing the role of observations in QM and the implications of locality and predictability. Key contributions include links to relevant papers and models that illustrate these concepts.
PREREQUISITESQuantum physicists, researchers in quantum information theory, and anyone interested in the philosophical implications of quantum mechanics and the nature of reality.
You are too radical. Physical realism allows probabilistic results just as well but we speak about CFD only in case of definite results.Derek Potter said:zonde - just call it physical realism :)
No problem, I'd already deleted the comment when you replied :)zonde said:You are too radical. Physical realism allows probabilistic results just as well but we speak about CFD only in case of definite results.
