Quantum Theory and Local Causality: SpringerBriefs in Philosophy

Autor Gábor Hofer-Szabó, Péter Vecsernyés
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 mar 2018
​This book summarizes the results of research the authors have pursued in the past years on the problem of implementing Bell's notion of local causality in local physical theories and relating it to other important concepts and principles in the foundations of physics such as the Common Cause Principle, Bell's inequalities, the EPR (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) scenario, and various other locality and causality concepts. The book is intended for philosophers of science with an interest in the formal background of sciences, philosophers of physics and physicists working in foundation of physics.

Caracteristici

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
