Quantum Entanglement

[steve]

In 1934 Albert Einstein was investigating quantum theory, when he made a discovery he did not want to make.

He was working with two other physicists, Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen. At first they assumed that they had found an error in the calculations, they had discovered that in certain conditions two electrons can bind together in such a way that they effectively become the same particle, even if they are separated by a large distance. This means that anything that happens to one particle instantly affects the other one.

Einstein referred to this as ‘spooky action at a distance’. This discovery, that two particles can resonate instantaneously however far apart they are, even if they are on opposite sides of the solar system, went against Einstein’s claim that nothing can travel faster that light.

At that time Albert Einstein was the most famous scientist in the world. He responded with his own theory that these particles must have somehow have been able to anticipate what was going to happen in advance.

Recent experiments have now shown that Neils Bohr’s Quantum calculations give a more accurate result than Einstein’s, and that the quantum calculations of Neils Bohr are correct. This effect is currently referred to as ‘quantum entanglement’ and is being used experimentally in the latest computer research.

It all smells like a golf-gedanken tween Einstein & Bohr, played over the phone, each imagining their strokes & putts on each hole, each knowing their own golf abilities, & no cheating allowed.

Except it didn't. Since quantum teleportation doesn't transfer (on its own) any mass, energy or information.

Your comments on Einstein are the best crawler, this one had me laughing for some time.

The EPR_paradox is a ridiculous debate between the biggest nonsense theories (and their idols) of Physics in the 20th Century.

Einstein hated non-determinism and invented a light-clock (his only real invention) to disprove it, but Bohr used Einstein's own GR Theory to refute it. It was just a back and forth between garbage theory built on garbage assumptions. "Junk in, junk out."

Anyhow, the game was even after 17 holes, & on the 18th Bohr holed a gedanken 5 iron for an eagle, but Einstein pulled the genanken ball out of the gedanken cup & announced that Bohr had hit the wrong ball.
