Quantum Randomness. Nonlocality, Teleportation, and Other Quantum Wonders

Quantum Randomness. Nonlocality, Teleportation, and Other Quantum Wonders

Does God play dice? And what are physicists playing? Nicolas Gisin, the author of the groundbreaking Geneva experiment on the transmission of quantum entanglement of photon pairs through fiber optics, presents his views on fundamental questions of quantum physics through... the lens of Bell's game – an imagined experiment that considers the theoretical possibility of superluminal information transfer using entangled particles. Real experiments with them have proven the nonlocal nature of the world – contrary to the intuitive desire of scientists, events in distant points of the Universe can directly depend on each other.
The true nature of these phenomena and the consequences arising from them have recently become a hot topic in physics. According to the author, the second quantum revolution that began in the last decade of the 20th century will allow for the construction of a new, coherent, and fruitful perspective on the world.
