Does Quantum Nonlocality Exist? Bell's Theorem and the
Many-Worlds Interpretation
Authors: Frank J. Tipler
Comments: 7 pages in plain TeX, no figures
Quantum nonlocality may be an artifact of the assumption that observers
obey the laws of classical
mechanics, while observed systems obey quantum mechanics. I show that,
at least in the case of
Bell's Theorem, locality is restored if observed and observer are both
assumed to obey quantum
mechanics, as in the Many-Worlds Interpretation. Using the MWI, I shall
show that the apparently
"non-local" expectation value for the product of the spins of two
widely separated particles --- the
"quantum" part of Bell's Theorem --- is really due to a series of three
purely local measurements.
Thus, experiments confirming "nonlocality" are actually confirming the
MWI.
