A New Causal Interpretation of EPR-B Experiment

TL;DR

This paper offers a novel causal interpretation of the EPR-B experiment, proposing that entangled atoms can be decomposed into distinct states with local properties, challenging traditional views on non-locality.

Contribution

It introduces a new causal framework for the EPR-B experiment that allows decomposition into separate states, aligning with Einstein's relativity.

Findings

Refutes the classic impossibility of decomposing entangled pairs.

Provides a local, causal explanation for non-local influences.

Uses the two-body Pauli equation for the wave function.

Abstract

In this paper we study a two-step version of EPR-B experiment, the Bohm version of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment. Its theoretical resolution in space and time enables us to refute the classic "impossibility" to decompose a pair of entangled atoms into two distinct states, one for each atom. We propose a new causal interpretation of the EPR-B experiment where each atom has a position and a spin while the singlet wave function verifies the two-body Pauli equation. In conclusion we suggest a physical explanation of non-local influences, compatible with Einstein's point of view on relativity.
