Guys 😂, what's going in quantum entanglement is non-dualism, the particles are not separate but one( interconnected by an infinite dimension called pure consciousness ) , just like the yin and yang symbol, what science is trying to convey is the exact same thing that Spirituality had been trying to tell people for thousands of years that what's going in this this space and time reality is ultimately an illusion and is mainly governed by an" invisible reality" called non-duality( a reality that exist beyond time, space, forms , concepts ect.. which you cannot see, touch, smell or feel.). Those particles were never separated in the first place and has always been and will always be one. This physical universe that operates as space and time is an illusion,but there is another Reality which is the source of all the things happening in this universe. Every form, words, concepts, relatively and understanding all ceases to exist and what's let's is pure energy, the consciousness itself beyond duality. Science and spirituality are so very close to be best friends, this is because science is now catching up with Spirituality. Go to a spiritual teacher or any yogi master ,they are going to explain this whole thing of quantum entanglement to you simply and it will make your head spin❤

Can you help me understand more by explaining What "the same wave function" means & the implications of two particles having a common? It sounds like having a singular wave function somehow combines the two particles into one. Is that correct? Does having one singular wave faction "actually cause the two to become one? If not, does the fact that there is only one wave function simply "reveal" that there was only one particle all along? Thanks for any insight you can share in layman's terms. 🙂

I know this sounds like a dumb question, but no one has been able to explain it to me for years. I am skeptical about the whole thing - what I can't understand is, why isn't the glove example applicable here? How do we know that the other electron wasn't always the opposite (or always whatever it was going to be)? Supposedly, the electrons are normally in a state of "spinning" both up and down until they are observed. How do we know that a specific one isn't ALWAYS going to appear spinning one way when observed, and naturally the other one, it's opposite partner, is always going to appear the other way. I know I'm not explaining this well, but how do we know electron A isn't always going to be up, and obviously its entangled partner B going to be down, since we can't observe them until we observe them. Once we observe one, we know the other will be opposite.

Because they're able to prove thru experiments similar to the double slit experiment that the "particles" don't resolve into specific states until measured. They stay as indeterminate waves where multiple states are still possible. Research the double slit experiment and it's variations. Then research Bell's theorem, which led to proof they are not somehow misinterpreting the double-slit type experiments.

If you assume the hidden variables are time invariant, you have the case of the two gloves. But if you admit that the hidden variables include a time-varying term, then you also have to admit that (from General Relativity) the time-varying terms decohere because of the presence of gravitational gradients along their paths. That's why modern theories include a gravitational path integral, so as to account for the fact that the two particles age independently of each other, and thus get out of phase as a result of any gravitational gradients. The violation of Bell's Inequality doesn't rule out hidden variables, it only rules out time-invariant hidden variables. The decoherence is then explained by GR, which reminds us that time-keeping is local.

@@BarryKort No, there are no hidden variables that affect Bell''s proofs' conclusion that our universe is non-local (and hence answer the OP's question), even if you propose time-invariant variables. You're not really understanding Bell's theorem... it's all about showing how we can use quanta, *before* they decohere, to show there are NO hidden variables. It is true that decoherence from gravity does happen, and that time-keeping is local, but Bell is about showing how we can use a huge sampling before decoherence to statistically prove there are no hidden variables, even from time & gravity. The theorem is literally all about factually disproving your idea could be correct.

What you are describing is called morphic fields or morphic resonance - which is basically a field that contains memories. The idea is that if a monkey on an island starts using rocks to break a nut, shortly afterwards monked on other islands will do the same thing. Some examples come from ancient human civilizations that learned cosmology around the same time despite allegedly being isolated from each other. I do think there might be something to this idea by a biologist named Sheldrake. I just don't think it works the way he thinks it does. Kind of like Newton was pretty close to understanding gravity, but also didn't understand it all (compared to our current knowledge). Nonetheless, morphic fields are not commonly accepted as a valid hypothesis by many scientists.

Sabine Hossenfelder is really good too, but she keeps her video explanations mostly at a more entry-level, which is good for mass appeal, though she cuts out the BS and unhelpful analogies (the 'lies we tell to children' type explanations).

Thank you for a great video. Some (many) naive questions: Matter is made of particles, and all matter was created after the big bang, yet somehow we can experiment with particles that have never been observed. 1.) What counts as an observation/measurment? 2.) How do we know that we have A electron in an apparatus before shooting it at a detector (double slit expr, DSE) without observing it? 3.) How can we even retrieve a particle into an approximate position without observing it? Isn't observing a piece of metal actually observing the particles that makes it, otherwise what am I observing, waves? 4.) Would the DSE work the same with chunks of particles, say protons? If so, how large chunks, atoms? Presumably not, but then when did the wave result of DSE break down when increasing the size of the chunks?

Guy in the video said we can't send information FTL with it, but couldn't you just use the collapse of the particle wave-function to a single state on the other end to imply a pre-agreed upon message? Like you take an entangled particle from Earth to a colony, and read its state if you're in distress and need assistance. You could have other particles to say which type of crisis is happening, and so on Maybe they just don't know if the wave-function has collapsed until they read it anyway, so they don't know if they collapsed it or the particle on the other end

Physicist can think but they can’t freely say what they believe because it goes against their doctrine that our universe is fundamental made from subatomic particles, and if they go against that thought without evidence they lose their credibility and funding to research. I can give you a possibility, which is what science should be about, and why there should never be scientific laws because science is never law, just our best understanding of something at that given time. Our universe, and what we perceive as the physical world in our dimension, is fundamentally harmonics of frequencies, and potential energy. Let’s call this consciousness. Primordial beings and living beings such planets and humans have a consciousness, but anything without consciousness will be dictated by the most powerful consciousness around them, and individually the greater the mass, the greater the consciousness, and that’s what dictates the flow of gravity,.This why drugs like ketamine can give you an out of body experience, because our consciousness is not tied to our body/brain, it is simply a frequency. Particles that are created by the dominant consciousness will have very similar frequencies depending on space and time, once they’re together their frequencies sync and bind a collective consciousness which allows them to interact instantly through their source frequencies. That is the fundamentals of intergalactic travel, by using math to find a frequency in space and time, and then changing your frequencies to match that to instantly transfer in space and time to that frequency. Humans have a collective consciousness, but are not born with a similar frequency like particles except sometimes twins, this why twins have been mysteriously known to sense the other twin subconsciously, and the same with loved ones that have grown their consciousness collectively. If you would like to test this without drugs, look up the gateway process to separate your consciousness from your body. The collective human consciousness is enslaved by a duopoly of thought into everything and indoctrinated into a false morality of good and evil, right or wrong. This is why cults have been portrayed as bad, but religion is a cult, and political parties have become cults, and now science is a cult, all intertwined for control. If everything this consciousness, our ultimate goal should be to grow our consciousness which is our soul. So take all knowledge as possibility, but don’t ground it as truth. The ultimate goal is to be like water, free from bias. So now you hit the end of the road, but you have two options, wake up in your bed believing whatever you want to believe, or see just how deep the rabbit hole goes. If you want to understand the coded universe, watch Swaruu official on KZbin but start from the beginning because it will challenge your reality, but is put in bite sized pieces so it is easy to digest, but it all builds upon previous topics. If you want to see how science for the greater good isn’t real, watch the why files episodes on killer patents and secrete science. If you want to see how religious scripture is not just words, but encodes existence, watch the Why files episodes secrete codes in the Bible. If you want more understanding of how frequencies are used against us, look up numerology, words, and rituals are used by the Illuminati/freemasonry to manifest reality. This is why logos like google chrome, Disney, and CERN all gave 666 in their logo. Also how words are used to form hypnosis. This is why News casters talk a certain way, and it is the most creepy thing I only recognized on psychedelics. Also rituals they perform like at bohemian grove, or the super bowl half time show. I could go much deeper into these topics but I’ll keep it light lol.

This was a very well articulated explanation that puts into perspective how much we've learned and how much we still don't fully understand. Regarding the communication scenario, if a stream of entangled particles show an interference pattern in two locations, then a measurement at one location should cause a simultaneous disruption at both locations. Remotely turning the interference pattern on and off would essentially be digital signal that could be used for communication.

Fascinating video and great explanation! Quantum non-locality through entanglement is really interesting. It seems as though it transcends space. If space can be transcended through non-locality, does it suggest there is an "absolute" nature, independent of spacetime in classical relativity? How can relativity relate to such non-locality? Always looking forward to your videos! Great stuff.

Transcends I would not use, but there is indeed some line of thought that information is more fundamental than space and time and gets entangled with other information constantly. From this entangled information space and time emerge, much like temperature emerges from molecules bumping into each other. I recommend Erik Verlinde's elastic universe to blow your mind on this topic.

@@XEinstein Thank you for bringing Verlinde to my attention. (I once wanted to be a professional, but am just an amateur, so I do not follow this stuff as closely as a professional would.) From what I can tell, he is on track to confirming what my instinct told me had to be the solution, that we live in a sort of holographic universe. What we see as "reality" is just a projection of the underlying actual reality. Sort of like if you watch a movie where two particles seem far apart, but, in reality, they are joined as one object on the film reel which is in the projector. If something happens to the particles simultaneously on the screen, you might wonder how they interacted simultaneously as they seem to be two entirely separate particles separated by space. But once you see the film reel, you realize that they are actually just one object.

Arvin explains things so well. Video after video on this, and it's the first I've seen that de-spooks the spooks. The 13th minute is gold. I've been pondering this a lot this week, and it also seems relevant to me that the entangled photon's view of the observer's universe is instantaneous because it has no velocity along the observer's time axis. This means in experiments where collapse at location A seems to affect location B instantly, well, we'd be wise to consider that those are 3 sequential moments from the experimenter's POV (Entanglement, AbsorbtionOfA, AbsorbtionOfB), but from the photons' POV there is one combined moment (EntangleAndAbsorbtionOfBothAAndB). This seems like it warrants some model like ping pong tables on trains, themselves perpendicular on another axis to both on a 3rd train car, with the observer outside all that, and those ping pong balls having luminal velocity. And that by pondering that, perhaps the "two parts of one object" can be better defined.

@khai96x3 жыл бұрын
I know next to nothing about Quantum Mechanics (tell me if I am wrong), but I don't think higher dimension is required to picture entanglement. If two entangled particles are actually one wave function, then the act of measurement is also a wave function (of the same size, if this makes any sense). The measurement wave function would interact with every part of the wave function of the entangled particles, producing an illusion that information was seemingly transmitted faster than light.

It doesn't matter how many dimensions of spacetime you add, since quantum interactions are trans-spatiotemporal. In other words, the QM of matter isn't spacetime, and vice versa. Attempts to force it to be, as in "graviton", results in the equations blowing up to infinity in everyone's face.

It doesn't matter because you have to know the value of both particles, it sounds like "entanglement" is just a fancy way of saying "let's look at two different things and if we know A isn't B then we know B isn't A". Like, if you take two different skittles and put each one in a different box, then shuffle the boxes, you know what is in the other box once you open your box, because you already know what's in the other box, it's literally just object permanence.

The wavefunction exists in 4 dimensional spacetime. What isn't understood well is the mechanism of decoherence, or how the wavefunction collapses during measurement (interaction with another quantum object that reduces the superposition of states in the wavefunction to one (or more) state). People have invoked many-world-theories or other mechanisms such as higher dimensions or wormholes to explain how the wavefunction collapses or changes at distant locations (non-locality and from a naive standpoint seemingly faster than light or 'spooky action at a distance') but when you do the math you 'only' need 4D spacetime and relativity to model the collapse. You really have to visualize the wavefunction extending out at the speed of light from the moment of entanglement, although it is difficult to imagine the wavefunction being practically flat (zero valued) between two tiny particles separated by large distances, and existing through solid objects, even stars and planets, without being affected by them. Maybe it is this continuation of the wavefunction across distance and down to such low amplitudes (although I'm not totally sure about this, maybe the superpositions of the wavefunction are at a high amplitude across space and they combine to produce low amplitudes between the particles) that confuses everybody. Sorry if this is a bit rambling!

Think about a sin wave. The peak is like the particle and the trough is like the anti particle. No physical objects explode, everything is vibrations. The two are mirror opposites, they cancel out. What is left behind is the energy they might have had...potential to kinetic energy. Imagine, if you will, those two curves, as cars playing chicken. Just because they will obviously annihilate doesn't mean the forward velocity instantly dissipates, which they both have. That has to be transferred to the particles around it, unless there aren't many, in that case the fabric of space. Which does this funny thing and creates particles out of energy. So, not only is it really not that mysterious, it just ends up generating decay particles anyway...

@@ArvinAsh Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.)

The whole universe is indeed entangled - you can describe the whole universe with one (albeit very complex) wave-function. When we talk about the strongly correlated entanglement of two electrons or photons or whatever, we are merely taking one part of the larger wave-function and analysing it independently. Remember, due to Fourier's Theorem, all complex waves can be seen as a superposition of simpler waves, and can ultimately be broken down to simple sine waves of varying phase and frequency. What holds true for sound waves is true for the wave-function of the whole universe. (There's also a hypothesis postulated by John Bell that every electron in the universe is actually the same electron, bouncing forwards and backwards through time. So positrons are that electron on its way back through time - this also would explain Pauli's Exclusion principle. This is not really proven though, just an interesting yet plausible idea!

I can't help but picture a ripple in a pond being described throughout this video. If you measured the ripple on either side of the center, at the same distance but opposite sides, the two signals would be opposite. Any attempt to read one of those waves would interfere with it and therefore it would no longer be a reflection of the other side. The fact that undisturbed, you should always measure the opposite signal on either side fits this idea neatly. I've personally been convinced that photons are neither a wave or a particle, but a burst of energy that creates a ripple and we can read the peak of that ripple anywhere as a photon's location, but the photon isn't a thing; just the ripple of energy. Here's a thought experiment and if anyone already knows the answer, please do share with me. We are quantum physicists who have the ability to create these so-called, single photons. When we create one of these photons, can it only be seen from One direction; as if it were a bullet flying through the air, but was only visible from the front? Or rather, from the point where the photon was created, should we expect to be able to detect that photon from any direction which the point of origin is not masked? If the former, there's an argument for photons being more particle like. If the ladder, I believe it strengthens my idea by suggesting that photons are not points but peaks of a moving ripple through space. The idea that the photon is in a "superposition" until it's measured is as likely a byproduct of the physical distance it is measured from its point of origin. If any given, oscillating signal begins at zero, the phase or level of that signal will vary according to the remainder of your distance from its creation, divided by the number of oscillations which can be determined by the frequency of that photon since we know the speed of light. If I'm right, given precise enough timing and distance measurements; we ought to be able to determine the phase/spin and by doing so, lend credit to my theory or presuming we aren't talking about impossible measurements (any thermal changes or movement could spoil things); it might suggest my theory is incorrect. Considering the very nature of how laser light is generated, I believe the former will be quite impossible. 😆 The closest knowledge I have that I believe follows a similar paradigm, would be holograms and interference patterns. When you cut a hologram in half, you have two smaller versions of the original and not two halves. That is because every single point in that hologram was generated from the exact same wave function; the state of that very well controlled light that was only possible by splitting a laser to begin with (isn't that the generation of a substantial number of entangled photons to begin with?) I wouldn't even call myself an armchair physicist so much as a philosopher who has put a lot of thought into classic physics and is trying to find my bearing in current quantum physics. That said, I appreciate a gentle approach but I wholy welcome improvements or corrections to my ideas. I'm now in my 40s, with a few kids and a big old mortgage so I'm not in a position to go explore this space the way I would like to. I hope to learn what I can hear though. 🙂

The 'testing whether collapsed and to what has it collapsed' are inseparable: you can't detect the 'neutral' condition: You can only measure it as 1 or 0. The important thing is that you will NEVER KNOW whether YOU caused the collapse, or whether you simply responded to a collapse instigated by the transmitter. Well, yes, you could tell the difference by comparing records with your counterpart, but that sort of defeats the object.

very good question. What makes the quantum fields 'special' is the symmetries under Lorentz transforms. E.g., the Higgs field is scalar: no matter how you move or rotate, it looks exactly the same. The EM field is a 4-vector, so electric and magnetic fields interchange identities for different observers (see: Veretasium) The spin 1/2 electron field is difficult to visualize, as it's transformation properties require the existence of the positron (anti-matter) to work out. So there is an ether, but it's a relativistic ether that has no absolute rest frame. The original "aether" was more of a Galilean thing (like sound in air), where there is clearly an absolute rest frame for sound waves.

Our (classic realm based) language is far too crude to accommodate all the complexities of the quantum realm. And that's as it should be if the quantum is truly a different realm (which it is). The concept of ether was never a singular thing. It evolved over a couple of centuries starting with Newton in 1704 and ending (roughly) in 1887 with the Michelson-Morley experiment. Most of the incantations of the ether were geared toward there existing a physical medium/substance of some sort. The ether was most definitely NOT thought of in terms of a mathematical construct. And that's the key difference as it relates to QFT. The fields of QFT are said to permeate spacetime and arise as a result of mathematical formalism. Which brings us back to our language being a crude (and insufficient) tool when it comes to discussing things quantum. That etherists were both close and way off at the same time isn't remarkable whatsoever. We've only had around 100 years to wrap our heads around the complexities of this newfound realm. If it takes us 1000 more years to improve our intuitions and flesh out better and more precise language, then that will be a job well done. For now, things are still a bit awkward and convoluted...both where we've been and were we need to go next.

OK, how about this experiment: we measure one of them, and after we send the other one through a double slit to see if it acts like a particle of a wave....of course with multiple electrons so we can get the wave pattern...
@stephenkamenar3 жыл бұрын
if you measure one the other would "act like a particle", since its wave was "collapsed"
@DrDeuteron3 жыл бұрын
It will show wave behavior. Basically it always shows wave behavior: the screen pattern is the square of the Fourier transform of the slit shape. If you know which slit it when through, it's the |FT|^2 of that slit. If you don't, it's the square of the sum of the FT's of both slits, and that sum contains an interference term. Now if you correlate the momenta, so that knowledge of one electron's slit determined the other (which you do not measure)...you're looking at a very interesting version of the delayed quantum eraser. Now we need a talented experimenter to set it up.

Yes, it is very similar to the q eraser exp... And thinking about it, it does make sense in a way... Light doesn't experience time, and I'm sure there's a link between this fact and the fact that the wave collapse is instant and it doesn't care about time... Maybe time is just something we experience because of gravity... But it's not fundamental to the universe?

@@laci272 You can't rely on "light doesn't experience time", because light doesn't move at c in the lab. In air, n=1+eta, and eta = 273e-6, so its gamma is only 42....very finite.

Entanglement obviously is "spooky action at a distance" as it refutes local realism. You can't use it to send signals, but the particles themselves seem to somehow be connected even at a distance, so yes spooky action at a distance is exactly what it is. Pretending objects that are spatially separated are the same isn't any explanation, it's a denial of the problem: the objects are not the same, they are long distances apart and should not be able to influence each other so fast, yet they do.

That's right, the story about the single wave function is mathematically correct but it still contains faster-than-light interaction/change when the wave function collapses as you measure its part. This instantaneous collapse is what Einstein really called spooky, not the entanglement.

@@thedeemon Yes, the problem is that something over here has an effect on something over there, and that effect happens faster than the speed of light. Terminology isn't important, it's the interaction that happens faster than the speed of light that is the problem no matter what one called it.

Nobody currently has any real explanation to entanglement, you can call it communication or whatever you like, but the fact is wave collapse here affects something remote faster than the speed of light. Hidden variables aren't the explanation as it has been ruled out by the experiments.

Hello, my friend, your curiosity can be satisfied very easily. There is one book, which explains all the current puzzles in physics and astronomy. - "Theory of Everything in Physics and the Universe" Anyway, I will explain to you - Space structure is like fine layers of plywood. When the two particles are produced simultaneously in two neighboring layers of space, the space boundary is forming the wave pattern So... on each side of the boundary (as a vibrating membrane) the particle must be in the opposite phase.

8:39 Unfortunately, his video makes a common mistake when it comes to understanding what Bell's Inequality disproves. Bell's experiment unequivocally showed that QM is inherently Non-Local, thereby ruling out any Local theories. However, it doesn't rule out ALL Hidden Variable theories, but only Local ones. So, EPR could still be correct... David Bohm QM theory, known as Bohmian Mechanics is one such Non-Local Hidden Variable Theory, which remains plausible as a result.

Arvin, thanks so much for your fantastic explainers. One thing that I don't understand about the "measurement" is: When we say we "see" electrons create a pattern on the screen in the double slit experiment, isn't "seeing" them a measurement in itself? So what is the difference between this measurement and the one everyone says that collapses the wave function? This looks like a paradox to me.
@ArvinAsh2 жыл бұрын
In quantum mechanics, the words measurement, observation, and seeing are synonymous with interaction. Interaction is, very simply put, an irreversible energy exchange. In the double slit, the interaction occurs when the quantum object like a photon hits the screen. Our "seeing" the pattern is post interaction. I haver several videos on what's really going with the double slit. This one might help clarify: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5nbnZ2mrbmUn6M
