Do the CMB Temperature Fluctuations Conserve Parity?   from  PRL  by  Oliver H. E. Philcox Fri Nov 03 2023 18:00:00 (14 hours) # 1. Author(s): Oliver H. E. Philcox Observations of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have cemented the notion that the large-scale Universe is both statistically homogeneous and isotropic. But is it invariant also under reflections? To probe this we require… Read more →

Analysis on the Derivation of the Schr\”odinger Equation with Analogy to Electromagnetic Wave Equation. (arXiv:2310.12175v1 [quant-ph])   from  quant-ph  by  Xuefeng Bao Fri Oct 20 2023 09:59:30 (23 hours) # 1. The Schr\”odinger equation is universally accepted due to its excellent predictions aligning with observed results within its defined conditions. Nevertheless, it does not seem to possess the simplicity of… Read more →

Nonlocality via Entanglement-Swapping — a Bridge Too Far?. (arXiv:2101.05370v1 [quant-ph]) 上午11:33 | Huw Price, Ken Wharton | quant-ph updates on arXiv.org A 2015 experiment by Hanson and his Delft colleagues provided new confirmation that the quantum world violates the Bell inequalities, closing some loopholes left open by previous experiments. The experiment was also taken to provide new evidence of quantum… Read more →

What Retrocausal Explanations Look Like

Ken Wharton Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem” While it is generally known that retrocausal models can provide an account of Bell-inequality violations in terms of spacetime-local beables, new models can now explicitly show how this comes about. By analyzing a simple local-beable model that precisely recovers the quantum joint probabilities for measurements on… Read more →
