A conjecture called superdeterminism, outlined decades ago, is a response to several peculiarities of quantum mechanics: the apparent randomness of quantum events; their apparent dependence on human ...

Surprising oil drop experiments suggest that the quantum world may not be as strange as advertised. For nearly a century, “reality” has been a murky concept. The laws of quantum physics seem to ...

A random variable is a mathematical function that maps outcomes of random experiments to numbers. It can be thought of as the numeric result of operating a non-deterministic mechanism or performing a ...

Entanglement is one of the stranger aspects of quantum mechanics. Once two particles are entangled, you can separate them by any distance, and measurements of one will instantly set the state of the ...
