Action at a Distance in Quantum Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
The purpose of this paper is to present a consistent mathematical framework that shows how the EPR (Einstein. Podolsky, Rosen) phenomenon fits into our view of space time. To resolve the differences between the Hilbert space structure of quantum theory and the manifold structure of classical physics, the manifold is taken as a partial representation of the Hilbert space. It is the partial nature of the representation that allows for action at a distance and the failure of the manifold picture.

A DFT and Molecular Dynamics Study on Inhibitory Action of Three Amine Derivatives on Corrosion of Carbon Steel
Inhibition efficiencies of three amine derivatives (Diethylenetriamine (I), Triethylenetetramine (II), and Pentaethylenehexamine (III)) have been studied on corrosion of carbon steel using density functional theory (DFT) method in gas phase. Quantum chemical parameters such as EHOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital energy), ELUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy), hardness (η), po...
متن کاملLASERS WITHOUT INVERSION: DENSITY OPERATOR METHOD
A quantum theory of a two and three-level laser with injected atomic coherence is developed by using a density operator method, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time. The initial atomic coherence plays an essential role. At steady state, the equation of motion for the density operator yields to exhibit laser without inversion and a phase locking but no threshold for the laser fie...

The structural and energetic characteristics of O3–H2O complexes have been investigated by means of B3LYP, MP2, MP4(SDTQ), CCSD(T) and QCISD(T) methods in conjunction with the AUG-cc-pVDZ and AUG-cc-pVTZ basis sets. Six conformers were found for the O3–H2O complex. Two different intermolecular interactions were expected to participate in the formation of complexes, namely conventional O∙∙∙H hyd...
متن کاملaction-at-a-distance in quantum correlations: Resolution of the EPR nonlocality puzzle
The long-standing puzzle of the nonlocal EPR correlations is solved. We show that there is no spooky action-at-a-distance at work in establishing the quantum correlations. The correct quantum mechanical correlations arise for the case of entangled particles under strict locality obeyed by the hidden variable used and by the rules for outcomes of measurements. The crucial input is the correct ru...
