How Quantum Entanglement Works and the Nature of Reality

 Quantum entanglement is counterintuitive phenomenon in quantum physics where two particles become profoundly linked, such that a change in one particle instantly affects the other—even if they are separated by billions of light-years. This effect occurs regardless of the distance, meaning that an action performed on one particle will be reflected in the other, instantaneously.

In 1964, physicist John Bell introduced the idea that these instant changes could indeed be real and measurable, even at extreme distances, formulating what is now known as Bell’s theorem.

This theory challenged the established laws of physics, particularly the principle that information cannot travel faster than the speed of light—a principle confirmed by Albert Einstein decades earlier. Einstein famously referred to quantum entanglement as “spooky action at a distance.”...<<<Read More>>>...
