- Signals in entanglement
Why can’t entanglement be explained by a signal being sent from one measurement to the other?
When one particle is measured, it sends this information out to the other particle through some physical means (likely at crazy high speeds faster than light), and this determines the other particle’s state.
To my mind, I can’t see any evidence of this being ruled out by anywhere in physics. There is the “no signalling” theorem but that just means we can’t find a way to send information using entanglement yet, and that is only because we don’t know the measurement of one particle (whether it’ll be spin up or down) before it happens. This doesn’t mean that the particles cannot physically influence each other.
This seems to be the most simple, plausible explanation for this phenomenon. What other explanation could there be anyways?
