On measurement, superdeterminism, free will, and contextuality
Mordecai Waegell
Superdeterminism has received recent attention as a possible path toward a locally causal explanation of the entanglement correlations that appear in experimental tests of Bell's t…
Is Bohmian mechanics missing some motion? Why a recent experiment is inconclusive
Mordecai Waegell
A recent experiment raises a supposed challenge to Bohmian mechanics, claiming to observe stationary states, which should have zero Bohm velocity, while indirectly measuring a nonz…
Nonlocal action in Everettian Quantum Mechanics
Mordecai Waegell, Kelvin J. McQueen
According to a common view, Everettian quantum mechanics (EQM) is a local theory because it avoids nonlocal action at a distance, and this is an important point in EQM's favor. Unl…
Agency cannot be a purely quantum phenomenon
Emily C. Adlam, Kelvin J. McQueen, Mordecai Waegell
What are the physical requirements for agency? We investigate whether a purely quantum system (one evolving unitarily in a coherent regime without decoherence or collapse) can sati…
From statistical dependence to the space of possible superdeterministic theories
Mordecai Waegell, Kelvin J. McQueen
Bell's theorem demonstrates that any physical theory that is consistent with the predictions of quantum mechanics, and which satisfies some apparently innocuous assumptions, must v…
Separating a particle's mass from its momentum
Mordecai Waegell, Jeff Tollaksen, Yakir Aharonov
The Quantum Cheshire Cat experiment showed that when weak measurements are performed on pre- and post-selected system, the counterintuitive result has been obtained that a neutron…
