Review of Bernard d`Espagnat, On physics and philosophy
... apart in opposite spatial directions. When the two photons are separated by a space-like interval so that there no longer is any interaction between them, spin-parameters are fixed that are to be measured on each of the two photons, and two such measurements are carried out. The measurement outcomes ...

Quasiparticles and Effective Mass

Quantum electrodynamics
In particle physics, quantum electrodynamics (QED) is the relativistic quantum field theory of electrodynamics. In essence, it describes how light and matter interact and is the first theory where full agreement between quantum mechanics and special relativity is achieved. QED mathematically describes all phenomena involving electrically charged particles interacting by means of exchange of photons and represents the quantum counterpart of classical electromagnetism giving a complete account of matter and light interaction.In technical terms, QED can be described as a perturbation theory of the electromagnetic quantum vacuum. Richard Feynman called it ""the jewel of physics"" for its extremely accurate predictions of quantities like the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron and the Lamb shift of the energy levels of hydrogen.
