The paper titled ‘Can Our Minds Emit Light at 7300 km Distance? A Pre-Registered Confirmatory Experiment of Mental Entanglement with a Photomultiplier’, published in NeuroQuantology in September 2016, claims a significant effect for mental action at a distance (or something similar) onto a physical system. This author reanalyzed the experimental data with a Monte-Carlo method estimating the bac...

The more it moves, the more it yields. For several years, my co-workers and I have been exploring the use of living target systems in our research on distant mental influence. We have found that living systems possess many characteristics that make them exceedingly attractive and useful to the psi researcher. I would like to share with you some of my thoughts about the positive features of such...

It is demonstrated how all the mechanical equations of classical electrodynamics (CEM) may be derived from only Coulomb's inverse square force law, special rel-ativity and Hamilton's Principle. The instantaneous nature of the Coulomb force in the centre-of-mass frame of two interacting charged objects, mediated by the exchange of space-like virtual photons, is predicted by QED. The interaction ...

In performing their biological functions, molecular machines must process and transmit information with high fidelity. Information transmission requires dynamic coupling between the conformations of discrete structural components within the protein positioned far from one another on the molecular scale. This type of biomolecular "action at a distance" is termed allostery. Although allostery is ...

The standard model of expanding universe is based on the theory of general relativity (GR) which assumes that spacetime is curved. The reason of curved spacetime was given by Einstein that locally there is common acceleration for all test particles so that gravity is cancelled locally. This is called equivalence principle. The present paper shows that it is not true for Schwarzschild solution (...

E-mail campaigns are one form of cybersolidarity— action at a distance mediated by use of the Internet in support of trade unions or groups of workers. This paper, taking the example of a campaign in support of imprisoned Eritrean trade unionists, examines the social organization and information flows underlying such campaigns. These are discussed in the light of the effectiveness of such actio...

An important goal of phonological theory has been the elucidation of "action at a distance." This term refers to processes, such as assimilations or dissimilations, in which the trigger segment and affected segment are not string-adjacent; there are segments that intervene, yet seem not to participate in the process. Transparency of this sort raises questions. How and why does it occur? What de...

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...

We study the EPR-type correlations from the perspective of the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics. We argue that these correlations do not entail any form of “non-locality”, when viewed in the context of this interpretation. The abandonment of strict Einstein realism implied by the relational stance permits to reconcile quantum mechanics, completeness, (operationally defined) separa...

We show that a modified Relativity Principle could explain in a " classical " way the strange correlations of entangled photons. We propose a gedanken experiment with balls and boxes that predicts the same distribution of probability of the Quantum Mechanics in the case of the EPR experiment with a pair of entangled photons meeting a pair of polarizers. In the light of this gedanken experiment,...
