Video Description
In this video, we explore the legendary 1935 EPR paper in full technical detail, seeing what the EPR paradox is all about, and how it relates to wavefunction collapse, local causality, and spooky action at a distance. This video also sets the stage for a follow-up video on Bell’s theorem. Here’s the link to the EPR paper: https://cds.cern.ch/record/405662/files/PhysRev.47.777.pdf Along with this video, you can find Video Notes PDF, and Animation Python codes, on my Patreon.
