Quantum Theory and Local Causality (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Provides a formally rigorous and conceptually precise analysis of Bell's notion of local causality

Develops a framework, called local physical theory, which is necessary for the definition of local causality

Relates local causality to other important concepts and principles such as the Common Cause Principle, EPR (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) scenario, Bell's inequalities, and the Causal Markov Condition
