The 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ) recognizes 100 years since the initial development of quantum mechanics. Join us in engaging with quantum science and technology and celebrating throughout the year! https://quantum2025.org/ I wonder if some of the bad interpretatio...

Ha! I just found out that it was Bohm's work that sucked Bell deep into the hidden variable nonsense.

I've updated the paper "Local Quantum Mechanical Prediction of the Singlet State" here,

Sure, mathematical artifacts can exist at the same time. Qubits give you 2^n mathematical artifact "states".

Measurement time. That is just one time at which the qubit state Psi(t) is measured. Not two different times. So up and down states do exist at the same time , just as I said. The spin system is in the qubit state, which is given by Psi(t) = a(t) x up + b(t) x down. This state Psi(t) is measured at...

Measurement time.

This is a qubit state in which up and down states exist at the same time, at least according to the quantum computing guys. Do you have a reference for that? I don't ever recall seeing that. The qubit state is written down explicitly in Mikhail Dyakonov's talk I linked above: https://www.facebook.c...

So, you agree that probability waves exist as mathematical objects. Is that correct? If so, then we can have probability based superposition. Do you agree? I understand what probability is. And I understand what quantum superposition is. But what is "probability based superposition"? It i...

Do you believe that probability waves exist? I don't even know what "probability waves exist" means. What exists are measurement results, or clicks of detectors, or eigenvalues of Hermitian operators. I didn't mean exists as a physical object but exists as a mathematical object based on r...

Do you believe that probability waves exist?

Superposition is a consequence of wave action. Classical waves can have superposition so it stands to reason that quantum probability waves could have superposition also. Ballentine is not questioning that. You are missing his explanation that the supposition principle does not violate classical pr...

Interesting paper but I don't see how VI.A disproves number 1. What am I missing? Number 1 claim is that two slits interference pattern can only be explained if each particle is in a superposition of passing through slits simultaneously. In other words, the claim of 1 is that classical probability ...

The existence of quantum superposition is supported by several key experiments and theoretical principles in quantum mechanics. Here are a few notable examples: 1. **Double-Slit Experiment**: This classic experiment demonstrates the wave-particle duality of particles like electrons and photons. When...

Is there any proof that superposition doesn't exist? That seems to be the difference.

. The lure of "quantum computers" is one of the most lucrative scams, with scammers well placed in both academia and the industry of quantum technology. These scammers are earning millions in prizes and salaries. But here is a rare talk by Mikhail Dyakonov that debunks all the hype about ...

You don't need hidden variables to achieve what you are trying to accomplish.
