Philosophy of Quantum Physics, No BS | 1. Stern-Gerlach Exp.

A serious philosophical discussion about quantum physics without the new age crap.

Part 1 - The Stern-Gerlach Experiment, wherein we introduce the series and get an idea as to why classical mechanics is out the window.




Part 2 - the EPR Paper, wherein we see the argument for hidden variables given as given by einstien and co. Basically the question is: all this freaky deaky stuff that's going on in QM, is that stuff actually happening in reality, or is reality as we always thought it was and QM just can't account for some aspects of it? EPR are saying that reality is just as we thought it was, and QM is just incomplete. The paper: http://prola.aps.org/abstract/PR/v47/i10/p777_1
