FYI & FWIW: I just found what I think is an excellent series of Youtube videos on Quantum Entanglement by Dr. Eddie Boyes for those of us who have never quite understood it. I'm only about half-way through, but I have already found it valuable.

Just wanted to share my "discovery". I tried searching for his name on PF, but it keeps changing "Eddie Boyes" to "edged boxes", so if this old news ... it ain't my fault this time.

I just tried a search for Eddie Boyes, it found only your post above.

Conjecture: The search will 'try to be helpful' and substitute the closest string it can find -- guess it's an easy way to correct klumsy typing. :wink:

What is quantum entanglement as explained by Dr. Eddie Boyes?

Quantum entanglement, as explained by Dr. Eddie Boyes, is a physical phenomenon that occurs when pairs or groups of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in ways such that the quantum state of each particle cannot be described independently of the state of the others, even when the particles are separated by a large distance. Dr. Boyes often uses analogies and simple experiments in his videos to demonstrate how entangled particles remain connected so that the state of one (such as its spin, position, or momentum) directly influences the state of the other, instantaneously.

How does Dr. Boyes demonstrate quantum entanglement in his videos?

In his videos, Dr. Eddie Boyes typically uses a variety of visual aids and simple experiments to demonstrate quantum entanglement. He might use polarized photons and beam splitters to show how measurements performed on one photon immediately affect the state of its entangled partner, regardless of the distance between them. These demonstrations are often accompanied by clear explanations and diagrams to help viewers understand the complex concepts behind the experiments.

What are the implications of quantum entanglement according to Dr. Boyes?

Dr. Boyes discusses several implications of quantum entanglement in his videos. He talks about its potential impact on the fields of quantum computing, secure communication, and cryptography. Quantum entanglement could allow for the creation of quantum computers that are significantly faster than classical computers for certain tasks, enable completely secure communication channels through quantum key distribution, and potentially disrupt traditional encryption methods.

Does Dr. Boyes address the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox in his videos?

Yes, Dr. Eddie Boyes addresses the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox in his videos. He explains how Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen proposed the paradox as a thought experiment intended to demonstrate that quantum mechanics might be incomplete. Dr. Boyes discusses how entanglement challenges the classical ideas of locality and realism that were held by Einstein and others, and he explains the subsequent experiments that have supported the predictions of quantum mechanics over the classical interpretations suggested by the paradox.

How does Dr. Boyes explain the non-locality feature of quantum entanglement?

Dr. Boyes explains the non-locality feature of quantum entanglement by discussing how entangled particles appear to affect each other's states instantaneously over any distance without any direct communication. This phenomenon seems to violate the classical notion that information cannot travel faster than the speed of light. In his videos, Dr. Boyes clarifies this by suggesting that while entanglement involves a kind of connection between particles, it does not involve any transfer of information at superluminal speeds, thus not violating the theory of relativity.
