Bohmian mechanics, Leggett inequality, realism and nonlocality
Very often it is said that the Bell inequality has ruled out the possibility of hidden variables (HV) in QM. This is incorrect since Bell inequality has ruled out local hidden variables: nonlocal HV ...

All the logically possible ways to get around Bell-type inequalities
I'm a high school student, so my (mis)understanding here is not very rigorous or precise, but I will write it below so as to concretely frame my question:
Bell's theorem takes three assumptions ...

Do Bell’s inequalities assume determinism?
I was watching a video of Tim Maudlin where he talks about how the CHSH version of Bell’s inequalities do not assume determinism and only assume locality. He said that it is a common misconception ...

How do non-local correlations occur in QM without a cause? [closed]
The Copenhagen interpretation of QM ultimately amounts to asserting that non-local correlations occur without a cause since that cause would involve propagation of information faster than the speed ...

What is the consensus among physicists on whether quantum mechanics has non-locality? [closed]
According to this article here by the SEP,
Following Bell's work, a broad consensus has it that the quantum realm involves some type of non-locality (for examples, see Clauser and Horne 1974, Jarrett ...

Does non-local hidden variable theory predict the outcome of an experiment? [duplicate]
I am trying to understand what decides the outcome of an experiment and if there is any theory (e.g. non-local hidden variable theory) that is able to predict the outcome.

Quantum Entanglement: Is Non-locality Inherent or Does It Violate Causality? [duplicate]
Dear Physics Stack Exchange community,
I am intrigued by the concept of quantum entanglement and its implications for our understanding of the fundamental nature of reality. I have come across various ...

Does a nonlocal deterministic hidden variable theory imply retrocausality?
I've had this idea for a while, and recently I stumbled upon a short paper from N. Gisin that formulated this idea, but I could not find a meaningful discussion on the problem. The paper that I found ...

What's mechanism of "spooky action at the distance"? [duplicate]
Nobel prize 2022, a local theories of hidden variables are ruled out, Einstein's "spooky action at a distance" seems to be a reality.
Is there ANY explanations of this behavior of quantum ...

Quantum mechanics: does many-worlds interpretation remove nonlocality? Bell-type experiment
Trying to make sense of many-worlds interpretation and see if it removes nonlocality or solves other problems. It appears to me that branching is equivalent to collapse... so trying to see what I'm ...

Many worlds is nonlocal too after all according to some physicists?
Not a physicist but I have understood that MWI is unique in that it preserves local dynamics. There is a wavefunction - not in spacetime but in some more abstract space. But the worlds with spacetime ...

Question on hidden variable theory of QM [closed]
My understanding from careful study of Bells theorem is that there may be a deep subtlety that is not ruled out, but is probably very minimally studied in the literature. However the literature is ...

Don't these experiments suggest that locality has to be abandoned in the quantum realm?
First a quick recap because maybe my understanding/assumptions are flawed (you can jump to the question highlighted in bold below if you like to):
Bell's inequalities require that an accurate(ly ...

Does Bell's theorem imply nonlocality using a false assumption? [closed]
In https://arxiv.org/abs/1409.5158, the author concludes that Bell tests cannot refute local realism, because they employ a wrong analysis. He says:
"The quantum joint prediction cannot be ...

How to deduce quantum non-locality from indeterminism?
In the paper ''Quantum non-locality as an axiom'' (Popescu, S. & Rohrlich, D. Found Phys (1994) 24: 379. https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02058098), it is stated that the conventional formalism of ...
