Why does breaking Bell's inequality rule out all local hidden variables theories? [duplicate]
It seems that a hidden variables theory could reproduce Bell's experiments results, preserving locality, as long as it accepts that the superposition state(or at least a faux superposition) existed at ...

What does Bell's Theorem really violate? [duplicate]
Well this is a fairly straightforward question. I know it states that either hidden variables is wrong or Quantum Mechanics. But indirectly hidden variables is a part of QM due to uncertainty. So what ...

Does the HUP alone ensure the randomness in QT?
This answer of mine has been strongly criticized on the ground that it is no more than a philosophical blabbering. Well, it may well be. But people seem to be of the opinion that HUP alone does not ...

Don't these experiments suggest that locality has to be abandoned in the quantum realm?
First a quick recap because maybe my understanding/assumptions are flawed (you can jump to the question highlighted in bold below if you like to):
Bell's inequalities require that an accurate(ly ...

Is contextuality required in quantum mechanics?
I still don't really understand what contextuality means in reference to quantum mechanics. If someone could give a clear definition that would be great. It sounds like it means you can't always ...

Non-locality vs. non-realism: Arbitrary choice?
After reading this question, I feel I understand why quantum mechanics is so confusing (and so often confused by the media): It can be either local (if A causes B, then there must be time for a signal ...

Realism vs. locality in EPR/Bell arena
I understand that this is a much debated issue, so I will try to be precise in order to narrow the question.
Bell inequality violation rules out Local Realism.
From this, I understand that by giving ...

From locality to deterministic hidden variables
According to this link here Bell said:
"My own first paper on this subject ... starts with a summary of the EPR argument from locality to deterministic hidden variables. But the commentators have ...

Are properties such as locality and realism properties of all theories, some theories, or interpretations of theories?
I have a strong intuitive feeling, based for example on the Bothe-Geiger experiment, that quantum mechanics is nonlocal. But intelligent people who have thought about these things make claims such as ...
