Entanglement connects particles despite distance from "summary" of The Quantum Universe by Brian Cox,Jeff Forshaw
Entanglement is one of the most bizarre and intriguing phenomena in the quantum world. It reveals a deep connection between particles that can exist across vast distances, with no apparent communication or physical link between them. This connection is so strong that the behavior of one particle can instantaneously affect the state of another, regardless of the distance separating them. Imagine two entangled particles that have interacted in the past and become linked in a way that defies our classical understanding of physics. If one of these particles is measured and its state is determined, the state of the other particle is also instantly known, even if it is light-years away. This instantaneous correlation is what Einstein famously referred to as "spooky action at a distance." This concept challenges our intuition about how the world works. In the classical world, objects are independent and their properties are determined by their local interactions. However, in the q...
