TY - BOOK AU - Cramer,John G TI - The Quantum Handshake: Entanglement, Nonlocality and Transactions SN - 9783319246420 U1 - 530.12 PY - 2016/// CY - Cham PB - Springer KW - Physics KW - Quantum physics KW - Quantum Physics KW - History and Philosophical Foundations of Physics KW - Popular Science in Physics N2 - This book shines bright light into the dim recesses of quantum theory, where the mysteries of entanglement, nonlocality, and wave collapse have motivated some to conjure up multiple universes, and others to adopt a "shut up and calculate" mentality. After an extensive and accessible introduction to quantum mechanics and its history, the author turns attention to his transactional model. Using a quantum handshake between normal and time-reversed waves, this model provides a clear visual picture explaining the baffling experimental results that flow daily from the quantum physics laboratories of the world. To demonstrate its powerful simplicity, the transactional model is applied to a collection of counter-intuitive experiments and conceptual problems ER -
