Tim Maudlin Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem” John Bell’s most celebrated contribution to the foundations of physics is his famous theorem. The theorem demonstrates that any physical theory capable of generating the predictions of the standard quantum-mechanical algorithm, in particular the prediction of violations of Bell’s inequality for experiments done at space-like separation,… Read more →

Jean Bricmont Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem” The goal of this paper is to give a pedagogical introduction to Bell’s theorem and its implication for our view of the physical world, in particular how it establishes the existence of non local effects or of actions at a distance. We also discuss several misunderstandings… Read more →
Philip Pearle Submitted to “Quantum Nonlocality and Reality – 50 Years of Bell’s theorem” John Bell was a staunch supporter of the dynamical wave function collapse approach to making a well-defined quantum theory. Through letters from him, I reminisce on my handful of interactions with him, all of which were memorable to me. Then, non-locality, violation of Bell’s inequality and… Read more →
ABSTRACT. It is argued that the severe consequences of Haag’s inconsistency theorem for quantum field theories can be successfully evaded in the direct-action approach. Some recent favorable comments of John Wheeler, often mistakenly presumed to have abandoned his own (and Feynman’s) direct-action theory, together with the remarkable immunity of direct-action quantum electrodynamics to Haag’s theorem, suggest that it may well… Read more →

International Journal of Quantum Foundations (ISSN 2375-4729) has started a new type of open peer review for some received manuscripts. We hope this will help improve the peer review process of this journal. Here are two examples #1 and #2. Thanks to the authors and the reviewers for their support for this new system. Although most papers are still reviewed in the standard way, there will… Read more →
