Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Experiments and Macroscopic Locality
K. Kraus
- pp 75-86
TLDR
In this paper, it is shown that previous attempts at deriving a contradiction between this postulate and the predictions of quantum mechanics for EPR experiments are inconclusive, and that the postulate is not consistent with quantum mechanics.Abstract:
Special relativity requires that (at least) macroscopic events in a space-time region I are not influenced by changes of the macroscopic conditions in another, spacelike separated region II. It is shown that previous attempts at deriving a contradiction between this postulate and the predictions of quantum mechanics for EPR experiments are inconclusive.read more

Nonlocal Influences and Possible Worlds—A Stapp in the Wrong Direction
TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of nonlocal influences acting on correlated spin-1/2 particles in the singlet state was shown to be a non-local influence on the nonlocal influence.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Paradox and Bell's Inequalities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a critical review of the problems related to the EPR argumentation and to the Bell inequalities (BI) and present the argument that the simplified EPR paradox could be avoided by assuming a breakdown of the CI of the QM statevector reduction in the case of correlated systems when only one measuring device is present.

Some critical considerations on the curious new statistical prediction of quantum mechanics by Albert, Aharonov and D'Amato
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the curious new statistical prediction of quantum mechanics derived by Albert, Aharonov and d'Amato is based on an unjustified application of their basic formula.

Can Quantum-Mechanical Description of Physical Reality Be Considered Complete?
TL;DR: Consideration of the problem of making predictions concerning a system on the basis of measurements made on another system that had previously interacted with it leads to the result that one is led to conclude that the description of reality as given by a wave function is not complete.

Experimental Realization of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm Gedankenexperiment : A New Violation of Bell's Inequalities
TL;DR: In this article, the linear-polarization correlation of pairs of photons emitted in a radiative cascade of calcium has been measured using two-channel polarizers (i.e., optical analogs of Stern-Gerlach filters).

Discussion of Experimental Proof for the Paradox of Einstein, Rosen, and Podolsky
D. Bohm,Yakir Aharonov +1 more
TL;DR: A brief review of the physical significance of the paradox of Einstein, Rosen, and Podolsky is given, and it is shown that it involves a kind of correlation of the properties of distant noninteracting systems, which is quite different from previously known kinds of correlation as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
S-matrix interpretation of quantum theory.
TL;DR: In this paper, it is explained how and why the full physical content of quantum theory resides in the $S$-matrix, and it is shown that the observed system is required to be isolated in order to be defined, yet interacting with the system to be observed.

Bell's Theorem without Hidden Variables (').
TL;DR: In this paper, the conflict between the principle of local causes and the predictions of quantum theory is demonstrated in a concise form without using the concept of hidden variables or determinism, and it is shown that the local cause principle is not the right one.
