Quantum Entanglement - Science topic

hello,

one application that works practically is quantum cryptography : it is indeed possible to transmit a message and know wether or not it has been intercepted. However it is not possible to prevent interception.

ChatGPT said: 📷Using the 4D Ricci Flow to Understand Quantum Entanglement in Neuronal Signaling is a fascinating and boundary-pushing idea that integrates differential geometry, quantum mechanics, and neuroscience. Here’s how this could be approached conceptually and practically:1. Conceptual Framework Ricci Flow in a 4D Context:The Ricci Flow describes the geometric evolution of a manifold over time, smoothing irregularities in curvature. In the 4D context, the fourth dimension (W) could represent time or another physical property, such as neuronal firing rates, quantum phase coherence, or entanglement measures. Quantum Entanglement in Neurons:Quantum entanglement reflects correlations between states that are stronger than classical physics allows. Neurons might exhibit entanglement-like behavior in their signaling through synaptic connections or quantum coherence in microtubules (as suggested in theories like Penrose-Hameroff’s Orch-OR model). Integration of Ricci Flow: The manifold could represent the neural network, where:Nodes: Neurons or functional regions of the brain. Edges: Synaptic connections or quantum correlations. Curvature: Represents local properties like connectivity strength, quantum coherence, or entanglement. Ricci Flow smooths the "curvature" over time, potentially modeling how neural signaling optimizes or balances quantum effects. 2. Modeling Entanglement with 4D Ricci Flow Neuronal Graph Representation:Represent the brain as a graph, with neurons as nodes and synaptic/quantum links as edges. Include edge weights based on entanglement strength, coherence duration, or synaptic efficacy. Time Evolution: Apply Ricci Flow to observe how neuronal entanglement evolves over time, potentially revealing:Optimizations in signaling. Stabilization or breakdown of quantum coherence. Quantum Properties:Incorporate parameters like quantum phase, decoherence rates, or entanglement entropy to define edge properties. 3. Potential Applications Understanding Neural Dynamics:Model how quantum coherence influences brain function, including memory, learning, and decision-making. Neuroscience Meets Quantum Computing:Use quantum Ricci Flow-inspired models to optimize artificial neural networks for quantum computing. Pathological Insights:Study how disruptions in "curvature" (e.g., synaptic damage, reduced quantum coherence) may relate to conditions like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s. 4. Suggested Visualization A 4D Ricci Flow model can:Use nodes to represent neurons. Use edges with varying thickness/color to encode quantum entanglement strength. Visualize time progression (W-axis) to show how coherence evolves or decays. Next Steps Mathematical Modeling:Define the curvature metrics and quantum properties for the neuronal manifold. Develop equations combining Ricci Flow dynamics with quantum entanglement measures. Computational Simulation:Use tools like NetworkX, Matplotlib, or TensorFlow to simulate and visualize these dynamics. Collaborative Research:Integrate findings from neuroscience, quantum physics, and differential geometry for experimental validation.

Some thought, and suggestions:

The idea that photons carry “addresses” in a holographic framework is a compelling way to reinterpret quantum phenomena like non-locality and wave-particle duality.

• Non-locality: If photons encode spatial information in a holographic manner, entanglement could be understood as the sharing of a common holographic “address” rather than a direct physical linkage. This perspective might redefine the “spooky action at a distance” as a natural consequence of shared holographic encoding.

• Wave-Particle Duality: In this framework, the wave nature could correspond to the distributed address in the holographic plane, while the particle aspect emerges as the localized retrieval or interaction with that address.

• Wave Function Collapse: Could collapse be reinterpreted as the localization of a holographic address into a specific spatial or informational point upon measurement?

A holographic perspective could significantly influence experimental approaches in quantum physics:

• Quantum Communication:

• Explore whether entangled photons retain correlated “holographic addresses” even when their other properties (like polarization) are manipulated or measured.

• Investigate if quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols can be augmented with address encoding to improve security or robustness.

• Quantum Gravity:

• Holographic principles are often linked to quantum gravity (e.g., AdS/CFT correspondence). Could your hypothesis provide insights into connecting quantum information theory?

• Test for evidence of address-like encoding in photons passing near strong gravitational fields or through regions of high spacetime curvature.

• Delayed-Choice Experiments:

• Design experiments to see if manipulating the “address” encoded in a photon (via phase, frequency, or polarization) affects its delayed-choice behavior.

There are several tools and setups in quantum optics and photonics that could be adapted to explore your hypothesis:

• Photon Interferometry:

• Use advanced interferometers to test whether photons exhibit “address-like” correlations when split and recombined.

• Analyze phase shifts or frequency variations for evidence of spatial or informational encoding.

• Polarization and Frequency Modulation:

• Investigate whether varying photon properties (polarization, frequency, or phase) affects their apparent “address” in a manner consistent with holographic encoding.

• Quantum Holography:

• Apply holographic imaging techniques to quantum systems to see if photons carry additional information consistent with your hypothesis.

Photons are Bosons, spin 1 . Photons do not interact with one another, they do not "mix," only Fermions (spin 1/2) can mix.

an interference pattern is not "mixing."

Interestingly, your first half of the question addresses the con the Google acheived "quantum supremacy" some years back by quantum computing some 10^48 data bits of random zeroes and ones. the claim went on to say that conventional computers would take 10,000 years to generate 10^48 bits of randome zeroes and ones.

Obviously, this means that this stated test result must then require 10,000 years to validate. As such, Googles claim cannot be validated. Point being that if each data set requires conventional computers to validate, then what is the point of non validated "quantum computed" data?

Quantum Computing and certainly Quantum Teleportation of data and Information is all scam. you publosh news headlines and faux scientific papers purely to dance on Wall Street. And in all that Commerce, you find Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Aston Martins, and a lab that looks like an old black and white film filled with antiquated and equipment so obsolete, you cannot even run it with a 21st century computer: used junk for the xameras.

many thanks for your help, i'll investigate both and see how i get on. Neil

Entanglement is one of the most fundamental yet confusing consequences of the Quantum Nature of the world. It has been proven to be a correct description of nature in a large number of increasingly sophisticated experiments, and it is already used for practical applications, including information transfer ("teleportation") and quantum computing. All attempts (including by Einstein, Podolski and Rosen and many others) to come up with an explanation that supersedes the purely statistical interpretation of QM have been proven to be incompatible with experiments (see Bell's theorem).

The "conflict" with Einstein's theory of special relativity is only an apparent conflict - somehow we cannot imagine how the "quantum state" of one particle in an entangled pair can instantaneously change due to a measurement on the other particle, without there being some information exchanged between the two. However, none of the above experiments REQUIRES an exchange of ANYTHING between the 2 particles - the only thing that changes instantaneously is our knowledge of their state. In particular, quantum entanglement CANNOT be used to transfer information or anything else faster than the speed of light, so there really is no contradiction.

I dont expect that much from that combination , perhaps missing something.

Dark matter is widely believed to make up a significant proportion of galaxies, with estimates suggesting it comprises about 85% of all matter in the universe. This understanding is based on observations of gravitational effects that can't be explained by visible matter alone. However, it's important to note that dark matter hasn't been directly detected, and some scientists propose alternative explanations for these gravitational effects, such as modifications to our understanding of gravity or quantum effects. For now, the dark matter hypothesis remains the most widely accepted explanation among astrophysicists for the observed gravitational behavior in galaxies and larger cosmic structures.

To explain something means providing a framework where the something is an output and not an input; the input is something different.

Quantum entanglement of multiple particle states is the output, where the input is that the space of states of a quantum system is spanned by all possible linear combinations of the multiparticle states, which is the property that leads to the outcome that, generically, the probability distribution of the multiparticle states doesn't factorize into a product over the probability distribution of the single-particle states.

Entanglement isn't inevitable-there do exist quantum systems, whose multiparticle probability distributions do factorize; but it's not excluded.

The central idea in Jewish philosophy is that God is a singular, indivisible entity beyond human comprehension, distinct from any creation or being. Understanding God as each being's individualized higher self might not be entirely aligned with this. However, Jewish mysticism does talk about the concept of a Divine spark within every living being, indicating a connection and inherent sacredness. Thus, one could think of seeking alignment with their 'higher self' as trying to live in accordance with God's laws and the spark of divine within them. It's important to note that interpretations can vary widely, and other religions or spiritual traditions might have different understandings of the relationship between God and the self.

The concept of fine tuning suggests that each being gets one life in the material realm followed by an eternal afterlife. This view posits that life on Earth is intricately balanced and designed to support a singular physical existence, after which individuals transition to an eternal spiritual existence or afterlife.

These three areas are quite different, although they can touch on related ideas in some ways. Here's a breakdown:

There might be some connections:

Overall, information theory is a mathematical framework, concrete concepts are specific ideas, and critical rationalism is a way of approaching knowledge. They are all valuable tools in different areas.

A somewhat remaining connection, among the separated, suggests intelligent design more than reincarnation.

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum mechanics where two or more particles become correlated with each other in such a way that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other(s), regardless of the distance between them. In the context of quantum computing, qubits (quantum bits) can be entangled, and this entanglement plays a crucial role in the behavior and capabilities of quantum computing systems. Here's how quantum entanglement contributes to qubit correlations in quantum computing:

Nonlocal effect means non-light-caused interaction. Meaning there was no transfer of energy (i.e. information) between two remote spatial points in Cartesian space in the form of light EM waves. Assumint also this to be the case r gravitational waves speed or accoustic waves speed. That's all. But there could be actully an unknown form of energy (i.e. fifth force) in nature we are not directly aware of that could propagate superluminal and therefore still a local causality connect effect!

So let’s continue [see SS post above]

The 4D space with [utmost universal “kinematical”] metrics (cτ,X,Y,Z) above consists of two types of specifically different dimensions – 3 XYZdimensions, that, as that C.F. von Weizsäcker rigorously had proven in first 1950s, make binary operations, in this case “FLE flips” be possible;

- and unique cτ- dimension, that makes binary operation “FLE reversible flip” be possible, what is necessary, as that Fredkin-Toffoly have shown in last 1960s, for the energy conservation law could act.

Correspondingly there exit two main types of particles – “S-particles” that are created by 3DXYZ space lines directed momentums, and “T-particles” that are created by momentums that are directed along cτ-axis.

Photons are S-particles, and so move only in the 3D space with the speeds of light;

T- particles, if are at rest in the absolute 3DXYZ space, move only in the cτ-dimension with the speed of light; and so if a T-particle is impacted by some 3D space momentum, at that (i) - the every T-particle “rest mass” is observed, and (ii) - the particle moves also in 3D space with some speed V, correspondingly its speed in cτ-dimension decreases in Lorentz factor.

Antiparticles are reversed , i.e. the same as corresponding particle algorithms, but that run with opposite command order, algorithms.

Correspondingly particles that are created by 3D_XYZ momentums don’t use reversive option, and so are “own antiparticles”. That are, again, photons, which are some transformations of the fundamental Nature Electric force mediators, and gravitons, which are transformations of Gravity Force mediators.

In Matter at least 4 known now Forces act: Gravity, Weak, Electric, and Strong/Nuclear Forces [for what Matter’s spacetime metric is (cτ,X,Y,Z, g,w,e,s,ct); g,w,e,s dimensions correspond the Forces above] , which differ by their strength and action range, where only Gravity Force is completely symmetrical Force, and so in Matter everything attracts everything,

- while seems the rest 3 Forces aren’t symmetrical. At least that is evident for Electric Force – electron’s charge is “negative”, while the “electron’s algorithm’s that runs reversibly”, i.e. positron’s, charge is positive. At that at creation of new T-particles at interactions always pairs of “particle+ antiparticle” appear, which mostly annihilate with production eventually photons and neutrinos.

Correspondingly among possible T-particles [in now known a few hundreds zoo] there exists one fundamental, exclusion – Planck mass particles [or other T-particles that have only Gravity charge], which are T-particles, but, since they have only Gravity Force charge [“gravitational mass”], the directed and reverse algorithms are identical, and so these T-particle are own antiparticles. Just therefore Matter doesn’t contain antimatter [why? – see 2-nd link in the SS post above, section “Cosmology”].

More see the links in yesterday SS post above.

There is a very good textbook on quantum computing, authored by Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang, called Quantum Computation and Quantum Information.

Its first edition was written back in 2001, if I'm not mistaken, so it's rather out of date from experimental points of view, but still is a must to get the theoretical part right.

Actually, when we talk about QC, it's better to explicitly state what do you mean. The so-called universal quantum computer must be build of a set of quantum gates, which act on the input qbits and transform their states in a certain way. Obviously, in order to implement some logical operations, mentioned above, one needs two-qbit gate, the most commonly used in the algorithms is CNOT, which, from physical point of view is an entangling operation.

I agree that there is very little scientifically sound, but popular explanation of these concepts, so I guess one has to learn QC the hard way )))

I totally agree

that also my way of thinking

If you want to know everything about (quantum) entanglement, don't study quantum. "Entanglement" in quantum is a problematic, ad hoc addition to a model. The key experiment IMO is the A Aspect experiment. "Spin" is a way of fitting classical angular mechanics to experimental (Stern-Gerlach experiment) data. It doesn't mean the particle is really spinning. I suggest that since the experiment is a magnetic field, the experiment is measuring magnetic poles - at least 2 N-S pole sets , perhaps 4. So, yes one should be able to orient the poles with a magnet.

The STOE (mine) suggests a plenum (aether or spacetime like real substance in our universe) does transmit waves at superluminal speed such as in van Flandern experiments. But our detecting experiment detects matter particles and the effect of the plenum, but not the plenum directly. So, communication may intimately be limited by the speed of matter particles - light.

I thought you might be interested to know that the University of Ottawa in an experiment about quantum entanglement(see attachment), found that symbol of Unity in Duality, that ancient Taoism had found a long time ago, I mean that circle that includes, both the Yin and Yang concept, that as a matter of fact, is that same symbol I have represented in my work as I have called a Basic Unit System concept based on complex numbers, that permits to represent two different orders of reality such as Time and Space, that in general are reduced in main stream physics the one to the other, even though the father of Quantum Mechanics when he represented that duality of wave-particle by means of his famous Complex’s wave equation, stablished clearly a new framework that was not reductionist anymore, and as so he complained in his colloquium of 1952, when he wrote:

“Let me say at the outset, that in this discourse, I am opposing not a few special statementa of quantum mechanics held today, I am opposing as it were the whole of it, l am opposing its basic views that have been shaped 25 years ago, when Max Born put forward his probability interpretation, which was accepted by almost everybody. It has been worked out in great detail to form a scheme of admirable logical consistency that has been inculcated ever since to every young student of theoretical physics.

The view I am opposing is so widely accepted, without ever being questioned, that I would have some difficulties in making you believe that I really, consider it inadequate and wish to abandon it. It is, as I said, the probability view of quantum mechanics. You know how it pervades the whole system, it always implied in everything a quantum theorist tells you. Nearly every result he pronounces is about the probability of this or that or that . . . happening-with usually a great many alternatives. The idea that they be not alternatives but all really happen simultaneously seems lunatic to him, just impossible. "

Edgar Paternina

Dear Rodney Bartlett I'm confuse. Are you talking about our universe with billions of galaxies, where each galaxy hold several billions of solar systems? I'm sure you know quantum mechanic still a theory and never been proved of it existence, thus what is quantum gravity? Ambiguous empirical evidence shows, nothing is universe is working with our one dimension mathematical, our push/pull of any gravity as far as my research dictated to me. Thanks for sharing..

What is waving in the Schrödinger equation and why is it called the “wave” of the Schrödinger equation, especially when its phase is undefined?

It is well known that there is theoretical and experimental evidence for a causal relationship between the phase of the wave function and physical reality.

The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, which only gives physical meaning to the magnitude of the wave function, cannot be considered complete on this basis.

* A new dynamic-statistical interpretation of quantum mechanics is needed [1,2].

Believe it or not, attaching a well-defined phase to the amplitude of the SE wave would no longer complicate it but on the contrary would make it more understandable and its solution more accessible.

However, we assume that defining a phase at the amplitude of SE can be done via two different approaches:

i-reform the Bohr/Copenhagen interpretation of the Schrödinger equation.

ii-Apply the complex transition matrix Q to find the statistical numerical solution of SE.

To be continued.

Good luck

After a short search I came across this article "Quantum entanglement

Rev. Mod. Phys. 81, 865 - Published June 17, 2009". Section II, in my opinion, explains the most common concepts about entanglement and should answer your questions.

No, we'd be like those quantum-entangled particles that seem to be in more than one place simultaneously. Those particles aren't torn apart.

Maybe that means there is actually only one place in the universe in a FUNCTIONAL sense. Maybe everything in space and time is undetectably connected into one thing functionally and seeming to be in more than one place at once is a result of our limited perception and limited technology.

Schrödinger wasn’t Einstein’s student. Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen didn’t introduce quantum entanglement-they pointed out that superpositions must be taken into account, even though they didn’t possess a classical limit. Einstein was among the fathers of quantum mechanics.

Saltenna surface wave technology easily establishes full duplex radio communication through metal chambers and Faraday cages. You do not need to go quantum for communication through such enclosures.

Leonard Hall Hi Len. I just wanted to pick up on one point that I think is really significant in these models. You mentioned the idea of a source and sink in the field.

It is the word “field” that is the concern. There has been a tendency to talk about fields as real physical entities which are fundamental in nature. The standard model does this a lot.

This is an important point so I am going to give it some time. Since around 1920 there has been a tendency to think of light as an excitation of the magnetic field and therefore give the electromagnetic field a real physical existence. You could describe it as a quantum field rather than a classical field.

Now you can see why in the opening slide of the unification of physics video I talk about the LIGO experiment. The observation results of a distant neutron star merger show that gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves travel at exactly the same speed even over expanding space.

This must mean that electromagnetic waves are waves in the medium of space not waves in the electromagnetic field.

This point is crucial but it means that the only fundamental thing is the medium of space and all fields are classical meaning that they have an underlying cause.

Richard

Nor is it true that any measurement destroys entanglement, since that would mean that entanglement couldn’t be measured.

Ismail Abbas The first point to make is that there is a problem with the postulates of special relativity:

The problems are resolved by taking the medium of space as having a rest frame.

Then when you consider entanglement from the perspective of the Spacetime Wave theory it becomes clear that the collapse of the entangled system takes place in the space rest frame K0.

Even though the entangled particles are spread out over some distance there is a wave connection between them which is lost when one of the particles is measured. This collapse is likely to be at the speed of light but it could be faster as this is a unique physical situation different from normal wave propagation at speed c. It would not be instantaneous.

Here is some background information about the Spacetime Wave theory:

Nothing has really changed, apart from experimental apparatuses that are now capable of detecting a single spin and such. Founding fathers of math physics and logicians knew all along about entanglement and much more, they simply did not use that particular word, and called states, such as a triplet, strongly correlated.

Moreover. Leibniz published several papers on logic in physics, and how a mathematical description of physical phenomena is not quite (sometimes not al all) what physicists thought they were. In particular, he introduced 2 logical principles, called (following Simon Sanders) in modern logic literature the Principle of Sufficient Reason (PSR) and the Principle of Identity of Indiscernibles (PII), that identify states physicists called "entangled" now days as weakly related (in the logical meaning of the term). Thus, Leibniz argued that within such weakly related conglomerates one could not identify individual particles without breaking that entity. If physicists knew a bit of math logic, many "paradoxes" of quantum theory would not be thought of as paradoxes. Thus, measuring 2 separate spins, ones forming a triplet, and then separated by a huge distance from one another, does not mean non-locality or an "infinite" speed of their interactions. It simply means that one measures a completely different system, which is not a triplet any more and has nothing to do with that original triplet. Once one "separates" the triplet by wishful thinking into 2 electrons, there are only 2 logical options remaining: measuring spin +1/2 or -1/2. So, once Alice measured, say +1/2, Bob (or whoever) would know without any measurements that he would have -1/2 (also, Yuri Volovich discussed this example from rigorous probability theory standpoint). This happens because, in the first place, inseparable entity (triplet) was split in 2 separate objects whose spins were assumed to be known as +1/2 and -1/2. Thus, the original entity (triplet) was broken, and completely different system (2 separated spins) measured. In physics terms, thinking along standard lines about this system (EPR "paradox"), one makes an implicit mistake of assigning an "infinitely" large speed of interaction between the two spins (because there is no other way to split the triplet, and still consider it as that triplet). There is no quantum non-locality in this sense (or paradoxes of that kind), or infinite speeds of interaction in quantum theory. Instead, there are logical mistakes of thinking about one system and measuring quite another, assigning the measured properties to the original system that does not exist any more. One cannot separate electrons in the triplet and keep thinking of them as still being the triplet.

Entanglement experiments are a refutation of orthodox physics. There are enough of such observations to suggest that a Kuhnian paradigm shift is required. Thus, that you are confused is little wonder. I considered a paradigm shift:

M. Y. Abd-Rabbou Getting started with quantum machine learning (QML) might be difficult, especially if you are new to machine learning. There are, however, a few things you may do to get started:

1. Learn about the fundamentals of machine learning: Before getting into QML, it's critical to grasp the fundamentals of machine learning. Begin by learning about common machine learning algorithms including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. There are several online courses and introductory books available to assist you get started with machine learning.

2. Learn about quantum computing: Because QML is built on quantum computing, it's critical to grasp the fundamentals of quantum computing, such as quantum gates, quantum states, and quantum entanglement. Many online courses and introductory books on quantum computing are available to help you get started.

3. Learn a quantum computing programming language: Before you can begin exploring with QML, you must first learn a quantum computing programming language. Python, C++, and Julia are the most common quantum computing languages. To get started with these languages, you can utilize software libraries like Qiskit, PyQuil, or Cirq.

4. Begin with easy research: There are numerous research papers and publications in QML, but starting with the most recent and difficult works might be daunting. To begin, read easy and introductory papers on the subject to become acquainted with the field and its present status.

5. Books: "Quantum Machine Learning: What Quantum Computing Means to Data Mining" by Peter Wittek, "Quantum Computing Explained" by David McMahon, and "Quantum Machine Learning: An Introduction" by Maria Schuld et al. are all good places to start.

6. Online lessons and workshops: There are several online tutorials and workshops available to assist you get started with QML. The IBM Q Experience, the Quantum Computing Playground, and the Quantum Information Science Kit are all prominent online tools.

Remember that mastering QML will require time and effort, but it is an intriguing and quickly expanding field with the potential to transform machine learning.

Time-bin encoding is a technique used in quantum information science to encode a qubit of information on a photon. Quantum information science makes use of qubits as a basic resource similar to bits in classical computing. Qubits are any two-level quantum mechanical system; there are many different physical implementations of qubits, one of which is time-bin encoding.

As a radar engineer 100 dB is not very far down! It's not even very far for satellite comms. or GPS, I think. With kTB at -174 dBm and a few kilowatts available, over -200 dB is easily detectable with reasonable bandwidth.

I would suggest the following lecture notes:

They are part of B. Zwiebach’s lecture notes on quantum physics, taken from MIT OpenCourseWare. They are at an advanced-undergraduate level and may help you, since they focus on the mathematical aspect of entanglement, which, in my opinion, is the only real aspect of entanglement, contrary to what many believe.

Prof. Thamalu Maliththa Piyadigama

Probably in the following blog, there are a few more examples, although I do not consider them easy because I am not within the entanglement quantum computing field.

Entanglement Made Simple by Frank Wilczek Contributing Columnist, Quanta magazine

"Quantum entanglement is thought to be one of the trickiest concepts in science, but the core issues are simple. And once understood, entanglement opens up a richer understanding of concepts such as the “many worlds” of quantum theory"

There are 4 examples and some are macro examples.

Best Regards.

P: S. I remember taking a course in quantum mechanics for quantum computing many years ago, that the tensor product of two matrices of different dimensions was a quantum entanglement, that one I understood, perhaps when we write the product of real space ⊗ spin space to couple L and S we are doing quantum entanglement as well, of course, that is not macro and it is not easy.

Neither answer thus far has approached the concept.

This. Is. A. Challenge.

Design a method to test whether or not a device is giving its outputs based on entanglement (it is given that the device is indeed entangled, but its pair cannot be examined for direct comparison)

The device does not have to be "real", it does not have to conform to any known theory.

For the record: "a measurement at one point in space instantaneously affects the outcome of a measurement at the remote end" (Lewis) is suspiciously close to the definition of "communication" - impossible or otherwise.

Despite having the same roots of origin, namely quantum superposition, coherence and entanglement are conceptually different.

Clarence Lewis Protin I had a look on Wikipedia to find out about Thom-Mather stratified spaces:

It mentions its use in the study of singularities. My comment about trying to apply this approach to cosmology is based on the Spacetime Wave theory:

From this worldview, singularities do not exist in physics and the laws of physics apply everywhere and for all time. Also the idea that spacetime may have a sponge like or fine grained structure (quantum fluctuations in empty space) is ruled out by the adoption of the Einstein equations of GR as the fundamental equations of spacetime at all scales. This means that if the Mass Energy tensor is identically zero then spacetime curvature must be identically zero.

This the idea of quantum fluctuations in empty space from quantum theory has to give way.

Richard

My understanding of quantum entanglement is based on the concepts of the Spacetime Wave theory. When two particles become entangled they should be considered as a single system spread out in space. When one of the particles is measured the system collapses and the particles are no longer entangled. As a result it is found that the measurement of one of the entangled pairs affects the outcome of a measurement of the second particle.

This effect is propagated through the medium of space in the space rest frame (the frame of reference in which light travels):

The effect can be expected to propagate at the speed of light since the collapse of the system is an effect taking place with waves in the medium of space.

Richard

According to researchers at CRANN, they have created a new device that will emit single particles of light or photons, which are the key to practical quantum computers, and other quantum devices.

Yes, it's relevant for a lot of things, if you're into math, of course.

I have a sketch of a proof for it in my profile, go check it out.

The way I would look at this problem is to think of the two particles as being linked into a single system in which measuring one particle has an effect on the outcome of the measurement of the other particle. However, this evolving system still comprises two particles each with a trajectory so that we can subsequently confirm by measurement that the increasing separation of the particles over time is a true result even if some property such as spin is linked.

The question of the measurement problem is covered here:

This might also help to understand the measurement of entangled systems.

Richard

Particle size in products used in medicine, pharma, food, etc. are extremely important as explained in the attached paper.

Also note: THERE ARE MANY NANO-SIZED PRODUCTS APPROVED FOR HUMAN USE IN THE MARKET (including recent Viral Vaccines).

Equally important is PARTICLE NUMBER PER VOLUME (see the 2nd paper attached).

Hadi Jabbar Alagealy

Thank you for your interest in this topic. You need to read my last preprint first.

If you have any questions, please write me a letter.

Best wishes,

No, among other reasons, because it's not possible to entangle a proton and an anti-proton, since they carry different charges. So such a ``femto particle'' simply can't exist (and even if it could, it couldn't affect Alzheimer's disease).

It might be useful to learn about superselection rules in quantum mechanics.

This is serious evidence IMO presented by Dr. H. Ucar that BIE can be violated also by hidden variables due sensor apparatus and methodology loopholes and deserves a publication.

Philosophically speaking to say that BIE violation is an intrinsic quantum effect without any classical explanation possible ever is equal to claiming that you know everything about your system. Taking out hidden variables from the game is us admitting that we don't fully or wrongly understand quantum phenomena and quantum mechanics. That last conclusion was actually the final conclusion and intention of Bell by his proposed theory and experiments and not the twisted version of the theory which concludes that there are no hidden variables possible controlling the results. We just don't know these hidden variables and how could we? Since the SM forbids to theorize and model possible underlying mechanics of elementary particles at rest.

I would suggest to verify the temporal synchronization of the two detectors. For a too narrow coincidence window and different latency of the detectors, the true coincidences might be outside of the coincidence window. Only false (random) coincidences are present. The first step would be to increase the coincidence window to dozens of ns to surely cover any difference in latency. Then you can start decreasing the coincidence window and adding a delay to the fastest detector channel, e.g. using time tagger functionality or simply extending the length of a coaxial cable.

Also, it might be useful to add cut-off filters transmitting the red signal and stopping the blue pump in front of the detectors. Using the filters you make sure that your signal comes from the SPDC process and not from the laser. Filters https://www.semrock.com/filterdetails.aspx?id=blp01-633r-25 are very good but you can use any low-cost alternative.

Oleg Petrov's article https://www.researchgate.net/publication/331041475_Information_Interpretation_of_Heisenberg_Uncertainty_Relation

proposes a fundamental principle, which, among other things, allows predicting the behavior of entangled photons. Perhaps it can help.

Quantum entanglement occurs when a system of multiple particles in quantum mechanics interact in such a way so that the particles cannot be described as independent systems but only as one system as a whole.

Very interesting question, but also very difficult to know any research in this regard, Prof. Vadym Slyusar. It is a military secret.

The military revealed information regarding optical fiber communications entanglement * (ARL, 2019), but not entanglement in space.

Pauli exclusion principle is essentially a manifestation of entanglement (antisymmetric electron wave functions). It gives rise to atomic shell structure, in turn giving rise to all the diversity of properties of chemical elements, and ultimately, life. But this entanglement is buried inside atoms (in solids extending at longer range), whereas life has more to do with liquids, which are random and classical at macroscopic scales.

Hi Paul,

thank you for that, yes agreed.

I'm happy that SPDC signal and idler are entangled, so now 'all' that is needed now is some mathematical proof to show that OPA signal and idler photons are entangled or not.

You said:" When Bob measures, in a single trial of the experiment he gets a value. Now, a well defined value of px is incompatible with a well defined value of x that he got because Alice's measurement. "

Yes this is true.

With best regards.

Wave-corpuscle duality is a mistake. It has become dogma.

Emmanouil Markoulakis "Bell inequality-violation experimental results maybe not due non-locality but instead due decoherence?"

The answer to this is no.

Decoherence acts, as is discussed in the first paper, towards reducing the degree of violation of Bell's inequalities. So if a system has had enough time to decohere, it will not violate the inequalities anymore. Decoherence might therefore save quantum mechanics in spite of no observed violations of Bell's inequalities. But violations of Bell's inequality are observed experimentally, in spite of decoherence. Decoherence cannot contribute to the understanding of the quantum correlations by entanglement, because decoherence tends to destroy these correlations. But they are observed, so they are not destroyed (because decoherence was successfully avoided in the experiments).

Barry Nicholson Saying that things cannot travel through time would be an easy exit out of an un-easy situation. There is more to entanglement. When we look at the formalism of it it does not explicitly mention tome nor space! It means htah when you ask question "where" and "when" you will not get any aswer from the equation. This is why it looks strange: because we are taught (wrongly) that the World depends on mechanical quantities. It may be so, but in all cases: for one, entanglement does not.

All: One can think that shadows move infinitely quicker, because they are always there. Light moves on the "Tohu wa-bohu" or nothingness, which is dark, and one could equate the dark with the shadows, but the dark is meant to be even less than the shadows, which is the absence of light. Mathematically, the shadows are light in quantum field theory (QFT) as the null solution (where the solution is zero, exactly) of the equations.

Dear Dimitry,

it may be possible to used the system proposed in:

to determine if entangled photons are generated by biological systems.

many thanks,

Space and other conceptual notions have been historically used to describe what we perceive in mathematical form. They can be understood in the context of conventional agreements, necessary to formulate theories and gain insights into natural phenomena.

In turn, conclusions gained from such theories as well as experimental findings have helped question our sensorial perception.

For example, we might tend to perceive physical objects as individual and even unchanging units yet we know no surface can be actually found that marks the end/beginning of any object.

Space is in the view here presented of a similar quality: is conventionally agreed upon and ingrained in our human experience when sensorial perception is taken as absolute truth.

If we want to understand energy beyond our limited perception, space needs to be examined/questioned.

Relenting to endeavour in such investigation is (in our view) the cause why general relativity and quantum physics cannot be merged and why concepts such as entanglement can remain mysterious or contradictory with grosser / classical aspects of energy.

So space can describe reality to certain level of practicality as you mentioned, yet it cannot describe reality ultimately.

Dear Saeed Haddadi, Let me tell you that, in general, mathematical criteria that identify (directly or indirectly) "mathematical entanglement" do not necessarily identify "physical entanglement." A specific example of this is found in the article: "A case of spurious quantum entanglement originated by a mathematical property with a non-physical parameter", by Bulnes and Bonk.

Dear Sofia,

In this case, what is the meaning of wave-function?

if we maintain the probability meaning of the squared modulus of the wave-function, so can we found the particle it two locations at the same time?

This contradicts the energy conservation law, right?

or you need to change the meaning of wave-function?

With best regards.

Yes, certainly i can see that this would be a problem, many thanks for the response.

Unfortunately, I have no significant information on BBO. I can only imagine, that the story is similar, i.e. several compounds including LN were competing and BBO stayed persisting due to not only its nonlinear coefficient, but a combination of various practical and technical considerations (Growth, stability, etc.) as well.

Zachariasen was a mineralogist by profession, i.e. he studied geology in Oslo. But his work would from todays perspective probably considered solid state physics. He did systematic x-ray diffraction analysis.

His PhD thesis is called " Untersuchungen über die Kristallstruktur von Sesquioxyden und Verbindungen ABO3", which is in german. Translated it means something like: "Investigation on the crystal structure of sequioxides and compounds of ABO3 type". Sesquioxides are materials of the general chemical compounds A2O3, where A could be things like Al and O is oxides, while ABO3 are things like A=Li and B=Nb etc. His thesis is about x-ray diffraction analysis of as many compounds as possible of these groups to find structural rules etc. The only thing you can find online readily are summaries of his thesis:
