The De Broglie-Bohm Theory As A Rational Completion Of Quantum Mechanics

Published by on

We try to give a physical meaning to the wave function or quantum state of a system, apart from being a very efficient tool for predicting results of measurements on that system. In other words, we ask: what does it mean for a system outside the laboratories to have a wave function? We first explain why two possible, and probably common, answers to… Read more →

What did Bell really prove?

Published by on

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 →
