Causation
In Quantum Non‐Locality and Relativity. Malden, Mass.: Tim Maudlin. pp. 114–147 (2002)
Abstract
This chapter contains sections titled: Causation, Counterfactuals, and Laws Two World Pictures The EPR Argument A Note on Wave Collapse But is it Causation? Superluminal Influences and Relativity.Author's Profile
causation quantum theory, energy and signals ‐ not being sent via mechanism, producing violation violations of inequality ‐ direct causal link, two sides of apparatus causation, philosophical scrutiny ‐ Hume's skeptical attack on notion, connections in nature correlations, and common causes ‐ entirely accidental systematic connection, causation and counterfactuals, being one thing ‐ and quite another, in analyzing causation in terms of counterfactuals two world pictures, laws into two classes ‐ deterministic laws and stochastic laws ruling out subluminal common causes Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen (EPR) EPR argument ‐ relevant state, not predicting exact distance wave collapse, and implications ‐ in non‐relativistic quantum mechanics
