Telekinetic Entanglement

TL;DR

This paper presents a quantum thought experiment demonstrating how monitoring one particle's path can influence another's trajectory, suggesting a form of quantum 'telekinesis' linked to measurement and intention.

Contribution

It introduces a novel thought experiment connecting quantum measurement effects to the concept of telekinesis and discusses implications for interpretations of quantum mechanics.

Findings

Monitoring particle A's path influences particle B's trajectory.

The effect occurs without violating momentum conservation.

Links quantum measurement to telekinetic-like influence.

Abstract

A numerical thought experiment with two momentum correlated particles is presented, in which particle A passes through a series of zig-zagging slits and particle B moves unobstructedly. It is shown that, if particle A's meandering path is monitored by successive non-detections, particle B will loosely adhere to a similar trajectory without violating momentum conservation. The discussion relates this apparent telekinetic influence, which is a standard quantum mechanical result, to supposedly real telekinesis and to Stapp's hypothesis on intention in quantum physics.
