AI Thread Summary
The Bohm experiment, particularly related to the Aharonov-Bohm effect, demonstrates that quantum particles can exhibit correlations that suggest instantaneous influences, seemingly faster than light. In this context, when particle segment A affects segment B, the reaction appears to occur without a time delay that light would require to travel between them. This phenomenon raises questions about the nature of quantum entanglement and challenges classical notions of locality. However, it does not conclusively prove faster-than-light communication, as the results are consistent with quantum mechanics without violating relativity. The experiment highlights the complexities of quantum interactions and the ongoing debate surrounding the implications of such findings.

Can someone please tell me what exactly the Bohm experiment was in which he seemed to show that (and I am not exactly sure of this) that a segment of a particle (call it particle split "A") split from another particle segment (Call it particle split "B") could result in particle split A causing in a reaction to particle split "B" in less time than it would take for light to travel from particle A to Particle B? If someone could explain what happened during this experiment (and maybe even how it was that a person could measure that a faster than speed of light transmission of reactivity has occurred) I would greatly appreciate it. Does Bohm prove that faster than light activity is a reality or what exactly was the experiment and what did the results suggest?

Thread 'Maxwell stress tensor'

This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...

Thread 'Applying the Gauss (1835) formula for force between 2 parallel DC currents'

Please can anyone either:- (1) point me to a derivation of the perpendicular force (Fy) between two very long parallel wires carrying steady currents utilising the formula of Gauss for the force F along the line r between 2 charges? Or alternatively (2) point out where I have gone wrong in my method? I am having problems with calculating the direction and magnitude of the force as expected from modern (Biot-Savart-Maxwell-Lorentz) formula. Here is my method and results so far:- This...
