Abstract
We explore the EPR experiment in the case of the breakup of a polyatomic molecule into two mutually entangled fragments. We give a derivation based on the properties of the dissociated wave function that no information is transferred, not even at a speed smaller than the speed of light, from one entangled partner to the other concerning its measurement or lack thereof. We also explain experiments that show that each separated fragment can retain coherences induced in its parent molecule by a broad band laser pulse, regardless of whether a measurement has been performed on its entangled partner.Year: 2006 PMID: 16821844 DOI: 10.1021/jp0568071
