... (a) Explain the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen ”paradox”. How does the Copenhagen school of quantum mechanics escape the apparent violation of causality? Simplest example: spin 0 particle decays in lab frame into two spin–1/2 particles which recoil in opposite directions. Quantum Mechanics says spin state ...
