Non-local common cause explanations for EPR
European Journal for Philosophy of Science 4 (2):181-196 (2014)
Abstract
The paper argues that a causal explanation of the correlated outcomes of EPR-type experiments is desirable and possible. It shows how Bohmian mechanics and the GRW mass density theory offer such an explanation in terms of a non-local common causeAuthor's Profile
