Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) have designed a gedanken experiment that suggested a theory that was more complete than quantum mechanics. The EPR design was later realized in various forms, with ...

Quantum mechanics is a weird thing. It says that we can never really know all there is about reality. If we measure a particle, we can't know its exact momentum and position at the same time. If we ...

Astronomers propose an experiment that may close the last major loophole of Bell's inequality -- a 50-year-old theorem that, if violated by experiments, would mean that our universe is based not on ...

In a paper published this week in the journal Physical Review Letters [preprint: http://arxiv.org/abs/1310.3288], MIT researchers propose an experiment that may close ...

Journal for General Philosophy of Science / Zeitschrift für allgemeine Wissenschaftstheorie, Vol. 26, No. 1 (1995), pp. 63-74 (12 pages) A class of probability functions is studied. This class ...

Thanks to the work of a redheaded Irish physicist named John Stewart Bell, a native of Belfast, Ireland, the study of quantum mechanics took a giant step forward. His 1964 discovery, today known as ...

Bell's Theorem Crescent was unveiled at a launch in Titanic Quarter on Thursday morning Belfast City Council has named a street after John Stewart Bell, one of Northern Ireland's most eminent ...

Fifty years ago, Belfast scientist John Stewart Bell proved Albert Einstein wrong. Bell is regarded as one of the 20th Century's greatest physicists, and was widely believed to have been in line for a ...
