Description for The Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen Paradox in Atomic, Nuclear and Particle Physics. In Atomic, Nuclear, and Particle Physics.
Hardback. Collates data and thought on the Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) Paradox, from its original formulation in 1935, to theoretical developments. This book provides 6 different proofs of Bell's Theorem, about 150 references to the literature, and 74 illustrations. It also contains a chapter on the EPR Paradox for pairs of neutral kaons. Num Pages: 248 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PDE; PHM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 19. Weight in Grams: 1250.
"Paradox" conjures up arrows and tortoises. But it has a speculative, gedanken ring: no one would dream of really conjuring up Achilles to confirm that he catches the tortoise. The paradox of Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen, however, is capable of empirical test. Attempted experimental resolutions have involved photons, but these are not detected often enough to settle the matter. Kaons are easier to detect and will soon be used to discriminate between quantum mechanics and local realism. The existence ofan objective physical reality,which had disappeared behind the impressive formalism of quantum mechanics, was originally intended to be the central issue ... Read more
