Nonlocality, EPR, "Spooky" Action at a Distance Explained by Moving Dimensions Theory

[astro]

Moving Dimensions Theory states: THE FOURTH DIMENSION IS EXPANDING AT A RATE OF C RELATIVE TO THE THREE SPATIAL DIMENSIONS IN QUANTIZED UNITS OF THE PLANCK LENGTH, GIVING RISE TO TIME AND ALL QUANTUM MECHANICAL AND RELATIVISTIC PHENOMENA.

This explains the EPR effect, double slit experiment, and more.

Nonlocality in Quantum Mechanics: The Distribution of Localization

The nonlocal interactions and “spooky” action-at-a-distance observed in quantum mechanics are simply explained by the nonlocality of the fourth expanding dimension as accounted for in Moving Dimensions Theory. Think about what it means for a dimension to expand. A point in the dimension expands equally in all directions. That point is now distributed throughout the other stationary dimensions, yet defines the exact same place in that expanding dimension. In the case of an expanding fourth dimension in the context of three stationary dimensions, that point will appear as a spherical wavefront expanding at the rate of c relative to the three stationary dimensions, in units of the Planck length.

And so it is that photons do not age, as they stay at the exact same place in the expanding fourth dimension. And so it is that two distant particles can influence one-another instantaneously, as until they are measured, aspects of their wave functions can exist in the exact same place in time, though distributed throughout space.

This explains wave-particle duality and phenomona such as interference patterns and action-at-a-distance. The component of the matter in the expanding time dimension exhibits wave properties as it expands through the three dimensions. The component of the matter in the spatial dimensions exhibits particle-like behavior.

When a photon is measured (when it interacts with localized lab equipment) it leaves the expanding fourth dimension and appears in one single point in the spatial dimensions. This has been referred to as the collapse of the wave function or an irreversible process.

Moving dimensions theory explains many other phenomena and will play a key role in string theory and LQG.

QM's non-locality: This is from Wikipedia:

The results of Bell's inequality, and experimental verificiation, support Moving Dimensions Theory: http://physicsmathforums.com.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell's_inequality

Bell's theorem refers to a class of correlation inequalities that hold under local realism but do not apply under quantum mechanics (QM). The Theorem is named after John Bell, whose ground-breaking mid-1960's papers examined both von Neumann's proof of the non-existence of hidden variables (1932) and the EPR paradox (1935) in greater detail. Bell's most famous paper is entitled On the Einstein Podolsky Rosen Paradox (1964).

Bell test experiments

Main article: Bell test experiments.

Bell's inequalities are tested by "coincidence counts" from a Bell test experiment such as the optical one shown in the diagram. Pairs of particles are emitted as a result of a quantum process, analysed with respect to some key property such as polarisation direction, then detected. The setting (orientations) of the analysers are selected by the experimenter.

Bell test experiments to date overwhelmingly suggest that Bell's inequality is violated. Indeed, a table of Bell test experiments performed prior to 1986 is given in 4.5 of (Redhead, 1987). Of the thirteen experiments listed, only two reached results contradictory to quantum mechanics; moreover, according to the same source, when the experiments were repeated, "the discrepancies with QM could not be reproduced".
Scheme of a "two-channel" Bell testThe source S produces pairs of "photons", sent in opposite directions. Each photon encounters a two-channel polariser whose orientation (a or b) can be set by the experimenter. Emerging signals from each channel are detected and coincidences of four types (++, --, +- and -+) counted by the coincidence monitor.

Emerging signals from each channel are detected and coincidences of four types (++, --, +- and -+) counted by the coincidence monitor.

Nevertheless, the issue is not conclusively settled. According to Shimony's 2004 Stanford Encyclopedia overview article

"Most of the dozens of experiments performed so far have favored Quantum Mechanics, but not decisively because of the 'detection loopholes' or the 'communication loophole.' The latter has been nearly decisively blocked by a recent experiment and there is a good prospect for blocking the former."



After EPR, the scientific community had been left in the uncomfortable position that QM appeared accurate but incomplete. In this view, local hidden variables existed but were not described by QM (and thus QM must be incomplete). However, Bell showed that seemingly "reasonable" assumptions within EPR about reality led to a contradiction with the predictions of quantum mechanics. The assumptions were that a) no effect can propagate faster than the speed of light (this is the requirement of locality); and b) that the likelihood of any permutation of the hypothesized hidden variables occurring was between 0% and 100%. Bell saw that this was not always the case when considering spin polarization components with entangled particles at specific angles. Subsequent experimental tests of Bell's Inequalities are consistent with the predictions of QM. However, they are inconsistent with at least one of the assumptions of local reality. Therefore, either a) or b) is incorrect.

Bell considered a hypothetical setup in which two observers, now commonly referred to as Alice and Bob, perform independent measurements on a system S prepared in some fixed state. Moreover, on each trial, Alice and Bob can choose between various detector settings; after repeated trials Alice and Bob collect statistics on their measurements and correlate the results. In one version of this setup, Alice can choose between two detector settings to measure one of XA or YA, and Bob can choose between detector settings to measure either XB or YB. Each measurement has one of two possible outcomes +1, −1.

As an example, consider a composite system consisting of two electrons prepared in a special state, one of which is sent to Alice and the other one to Bob. Alice and Bob then each measure the spin of their electron along one of two perpendicular axes.

There are two key assumptions in Bell's analysis: (1) each measurement reveals an objective physical property of the system (2) a measurement taken by one observer has no effect on the measurement taken by the other.

In the version of the inequality due to Clauser, Horne, Shimony and Holt (called the CHSH form):

(1) \quad \mathbf{C}(X_A, X_B) + \mathbf{C}(X_A, Y_B) + \mathbf{C}(Y_A, X_B) - \mathbf{C}(Y_A, Y_B)\leq 2,

where C denotes correlation.

Experimental tests of Bell inequalities support the failure of local realism, and in particular, that some of unexpected correlations suggested by the EPR thought experiment do in fact occur. However, by the no-communication theorem, it is impossible for Alice to communicate information to Bob (or vice versa) in violation of relativity.

There are simpler ways to rationalize the EPR effect, double slit experiment, nonlocality, and “spooky” action-at-a-distance than the Moving Dimensions Theory.

To begin: there can be no gravitational attraction-at-a-distance despite apparent observation. The difficulty will be resolved when "dark" matter is defined, which should not be too difficult when current observations are carefully analyzed.

The EPR effect, double slit experiment, nonlocality, and similar enigmas will be resolved when the internal structure of a light wave is understood. This, too, can be accomplished soon with an understanding of the fundamentals of pure math and the geometric etiology of seminal motion.

"The conclusions from Bell's theorem are philosophically startling; either one must totally abandon the realistic philosophy of most working scientists or dramatically revise our concept of space-time." --Abner Shimony and John Clauser

Moving Dimensions Theory provides this new concept of space-time. http://physicsmathforums.com

The underlying expanding fourth dimension gives rise to non-local phenomena.

"For me, then, this is the real problem with quantum theory: the apparently essential conflict between any sharp formulation and fundamental relativity. It may be that a real synthesis of quantum and relativity theories requires not just technical developments but radical conceptual renewal." --John Bell

Moving Dimensions Theory provides this radical conceptual renewal. http://physicsmathforums.com

"Entanglement is not one but rather the characteristic trait of quantum mechanics." --Erwin Schrodinger

"The discovery of the quantum of action shows us not only the natural limitation of classical physics, but, by throwing a new light upon the old philsophical problem of the objective existence of phenomena indepedently of our observations, confronts us with a situation hitherto unknown in natural science." --Niels Bohr

Shimony, Clauser, Bell, and even Schrodinger and Bohr are all quite correct.

MDT is a very interesting concept as it addresses, in its manner, the dynamic qualities of dimensions and implies that there is some order to their usual circular definitions.

The problem is not so much with space-time as a “fabric” as understanding that the “fabric” is the sum-total of its fundamental manifestations, which are ill-understood.

”Space-time” a poor selection of words to describe the Dyosphere (dynamic, oscillating spheroids), is easier to understand when the etiology and geometry of its components (“dark” matter and “dark” energy) are understood.

This understanding should greatly influence MDT.

It is far better better to rationalize alternatively than to conflict with logic and observation.

What is your take on the origin of intrinsic spin in electrons and photons? From where does it arise?

Thanks!

Simple answer that explains little: Triquametric motion.

Triquametric describes something that emanates to and from three points in the manner of an ellipsoid.

Much more must follow. Ask away.

Your questions are enjoyed. Unlike vapid derision of “pomo elites” (your most excellent term). You are direct, succinct, and always cut to the crux.

This type of forum makes it difficult to reply “as well as you ask.” Your query properly requires several pages, which even at that, without visualizations, it is difficult to paint an adequate explanation. Therefore, I am sure that I will raise more questions than I satisfy.

You must choose the direction and depth of the inquiry with follow up questions. The subject of intrinsic spin, its source and etiology; photons; and electrons is comparable to an encyclopedia. You must choose the volume and page.

To begin: more than just semantics is involved when I create neologisms. Unlike the PEs (pomo elitists), definitions must be firmly pinned down before fundamental physical phenomena can be described.

”Spin” will connote motion (forward or retrograde) of a Fluence (analogous to an "electomagnetic" field) about a precisely defined axis.

I do not like the term “photon”; and, will not use it. Photon connotes a particle, which Light (a state of energy) is NOT.

I rationalize four different states of Light, each of which has a slightly different bearing on your questions.

For now, I will generalize.

Spin is a consequence of the geometric interaction of the internal structure of seminal motion (a state of Light: Coalescents); from there spin eventually evolves to the internal structure of "dark" matter; and, subsequently, spin, also, is found beyond the locus of the atomic nucleus where it manifests as electrons when said "dark" matter is critically compressed (within quasars and gamma-ray bursts). Both electrons and a state of Light (Dissipents that are without spin) are ejected at Critical Compression.

There are sixteen solitons (analogous to quarks, but with unit “charge”), referred to as Soloids, within an Ultron, which is a proto-atom ("dark" matter), which is four groups of four, pulsing, solitonic, spheroids that are formed from the resonance of complex oscillating energy referred to as Triquametric motion.

Triquametric motion is hyper-relativistic, cyclic oscillations of vibration, slide, and swing that are the resultant of the ellipsoidal geometry of seminal motion.

I hope I’ve somewhat addressed the gist of your question. The answer is both more complex; and yet, much simpler. The explanation of spin, its origin and etiology, can be simpler if basic concepts are addressed first, which I have omitted.

Also, I hope by using the vernacular that I have not obfuscated as seems to be the wont of PEs. My intent is that the environment must be understood by lay persons such that a minuscule of faith is all that is required to satisfy the insatiable quest of: “Why?” without the necessity of following false gods.

All phenomena are manifestations of the geometry of seminal motion.

I might also add that: all phenomena are entangled because of the hyper-relativistic speeds between the dualities of Infinity (the infinite and the infinitesimal) of every fundamental component.
