Non séparabilité et rétrocausation
OLIVIER. COSTA DE BEAUREGARD Annales de la Fondation Louis de Broglie 23, rue Marsoulan, F-75012 Paris, France
RÉSUMÉ. On argue que la non-localité quantique manifestée dans les corrélations du genre espace est lue sur les formules comme une télégraphie zigzagante d’information. Les termes interférentiels de Born promeuvent à la fois un « calcul ondulatoire des probabilités » et une « télégraphie ondu- latoire de l’information ».. Les réversibilités jointes de la propagation de l’onde et de la corrélation entre prépations et mesures vient d’être à nouveau vérifiée par Stefanov à Genève. On s’étonne qu’Einstein, dont les règles de calcul pour le photon anticipaient celles du dualisme onde-particule de L. de Broglie et de M. Born, n’ait pas proposé cette lecture relativiste des corrél- ations.
ABSTRACT. We argue that the quantum non-locality displayed in space- like correlations is expressed by the formulas as a zigzagging telegraphing of information. Born’s interference terms promote together a “wavelike probability calculus” and a “wave telegraphing of information”. The twin reversibilities of wave propagation and of statistical correlation between pre- and retro-parations has been once more tested by Stefanov in Geneva. It is surprising that Einstein, whose computation rules for the photon anticipated de Broglie’s and Born’s for the wave-particle dualism, did not put forward such a relativistic reading of the correlations..
Pointée du doigt par Einstein [1] au Conseil Solvay de 1927 en termes d’une expérience pensée, puis rediscutée par maints auteurs, la non- séparabilité quantique est un des beaux paradoxes de l’histoire de la physi- que. Un paradoxe, au sens étymologique, est « un énoncé surprenant mais peut-être vrai », comme le fut en son temps le principe d’inertie.
Enoncée en 1926 par Born [2] suivi de Jordan [3], l’interprétation statisti- que du dualisme onde-particule formalise un tout nouveau calcul ondulatoire
