A Time-Symmetric and Retrocausal Resolution of the EPR Paradox

Key Points

This research explores alternative interpretations of quantum mechanics to resolve the EPR paradox.
Describes a time-symmetric and retrocausal interpretation of quantum mechanics.
Presents an experiment to distinguish between Copenhagen and time-symmetric interpretations.
Offers a resolution to EPR paradox without invoking spooky action at a distance.
Demonstrates validity of the time-symmetric interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Abstract

The Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics explains the Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) experiments with “spooky action at a distance” and nonlocal wavefunction collapse. A time-symmetric and retrocausal interpretation of quantum mechanics explains the same experiments without spooky action at a distance or nonlocal wavefunction collapse. An experiment that can distinguish between the Copenhagen and Time-Symmetric Interpretations is described.
