Abstract

Einstein Podolsky Rosen quantum correlations are discussed from the perspective of a ghost field introduced by Einstein. The concepts of ghost field, hidden variables, local reality and the Bell inequality are reviewed. In the framework of the correlated singlet state, it is shown that quantum mechanics can be cast in a way that has the form of either nonpositive and local ghost field or a positive and nonlocal ghost field.

    • Another interpretation of the double-slit posits a guiding 'Pilot Wave' separate from physical particles... aka DeBroglie-Bohm Theory or Bohmian Mechanics. Apparently it's not popular among professional physicsts though John Bell investigated it a bit. Einstein had some…
