# A Time-Symmetric and Retrocausal Resolution of the EPR Paradox

## TL;DR

This paper proposes a new quantum theory that explains EPR experiments without 'spooky action at a distance', and suggests an experiment to test it.

## Contribution

A novel time-symmetric and retrocausal interpretation of quantum mechanics is proposed to resolve the EPR paradox.

## Key findings

- The Time-Symmetric Interpretation avoids nonlocal wavefunction collapse.
- An experiment is proposed to distinguish between the Copenhagen and Time-Symmetric Interpretations.

## Abstract

The Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics explains the Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) experiments with “spooky action at a distance” and nonlocal wavefunction collapse. A time-symmetric and retrocausal interpretation of quantum mechanics explains the same experiments without spooky action at a distance or nonlocal wavefunction collapse. An experiment that can distinguish between the Copenhagen and Time-Symmetric Interpretations is described.
