New Slant on the EPR-Bell Experiment

Abstract: The best case for thinking that quantum mechanics is nonlocal rests on Bell's Theorem, and later results of the same kind. However, the correlations characteristic of EPR-Bell (EPRB) experiments also arise in familiar cases elsewhere in QM, where the two measurements involved are timelike rather than spacelike separated; and in which the correlations are usually assumed to have a local causal explanation, requiring no action-ata-distance. It is interesting to ask how this is possible, in the light of Bell's Th… Show more

“…There are some clues that this might be possible. Several authors have noted that there are close connections, and often isomorphisms, between the statistics that can be obtained from quantum experiments with distinct causal arrangements [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Timereversal symmetry is an example of this, but it is also possible to relate experiments involving two systems at the same time with those involving a single system at two times.…”

“…Bell (1977) calls it the free will assumption, and e.g. Evans, Price & Wharton (2013) call it the no retrocausality assumption. We will not enter into the justification of these names, but it will be helpful to us to group the alternative glosses into two sub-options.…”
