*In the August 7, 2024 issue of the journal Physical Review Letters is the strongest evidence ever reported that Einstein's dream of a quantum theory that is deterministic, realistic and local is dead; at least one of those three things must be false. They use something called "Hardy's Violation" that is a slight variation of Bell's Inequality that is a little easier for experimenters to use. *
*By the way, when they say "local realism" is violated they are assuming a deterministic universe, that's why Objective Collapse Theories are still in the running for the title of the correct fundamental description of nature, they are not deterministic. Many Worlds is also still in the running because it is not realistic, and Pilot Wave Theory it's still in the running because it is not local. As for Copenhagen, it's basically "shut up and calculate" so it can't win or lose because it's not playing the game. Einstein is the only clear loser in all this. * *Loophole-free test of local realism via Hardy’s violation <https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.03505v1>* John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> edd -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
