Philosophy enters the optics laboratory: Bell's theorem and its first experimental tests (1965–1982)
2006
Studies in history and philosophy of modern physics
It focuses on the period between 1965, when Bell published what now we call Bell's theorem, and 1982, when Aspect published the results of his experiments. ...
I argue that what was considered good physics after Aspect's experiments was once considered by many a philosophical matter instead of a scientific one, and that the path from philosophy to physics required ...

Böhm theorem and Böhm trees for the Λμ-calculus
2012
Theoretical Computer Science
Though, in 2001, David and Py proved [2] that Böhm's theorem, which is a fundamental result of the untyped λ-calculus, cannot be lifted to Parigot's calculus. ...
The aim of this section is to give an introduction to Böhm's result in the λ-calculus, emphasize its consequences and significance and develop a discussion about Böhm theorems beyond the scope of the λ-calculus ...

From the No-Signaling Theorem to Veiled Non-locality
2013
NeuroQuantology
According to the no-signaling theorem, the nonlocal collapse of the wavefunction of an entangled particle by the measurement on its twin particle at a remote location cannot be used to send useful information ...
In practical terms, decoherence and noise compel us to view the wavefunction as representing knowledge of potential outcomes rather than the reality. ...

Do we really understand quantum mechanics? Strange correlations, paradoxes, and theorems
2001

Another general point that is emphasized is the necessity for the theory to predict the emergence of a single result in a single realization of an experiment. ...
In another section the GHZ argument, the Hardy impossibilities, as well as the BKS theorem are introduced in simple terms. ...
Needless to say, the fatalist attitude in science is even more subject to the difficulties of orthodox quantum mechanics concerning the impossibility to develop a theory without observers, etc.. ...

Quantum Mechanics is About Quantum Information
2005
Foundations of physics
The notion of quantum information is to be understood as a new physical primitive -- just as, following Einstein's special theory of relativity, a field is no longer regarded as the physical manifestation ...
I argue that quantum mechanics is fundamentally a theory about the representation and manipulation of information, not a theory about the mechanics of nonclassical waves or particles. ...

A Semi-Harmonic Frequency Pattern Organizes Local and Non-Local States by Quantum Entanglement in both EPR-Studies and Life Systems
2018
Journal of Modern Physics
In many biological studies, windowing, both with regard to frequency and amplitude domains, has been found and non-coherent modulations of signals have also an influence on biological properties [7]. ...
This implies that the same discrete coherent frequency pattern of EM quantum waves that determine local and non-local states is also applicable to biological order and that quantum entanglement is a prerequisite ...
