Do we really understand quantum mechanics?
by F. Laloe
Publisher: Zuckschwerdt Publishers 2001
Number of pages: 117
Description:
This text presents a general discussion of several aspects of our present understanding of quantum mechanics. The emphasis is put on the very special correlations that this theory makes possible: they are forbidden by very general arguments based on realism and local causality.
