Listen "Understanding the EPR Paradox - Einstein’s Challenge to Quantum Entanglement"
Episode Synopsis
Dive into 1935 and grapple with Einstein himself! In this episode, Tanvi tackles the "EPR Paradox," a thought experiment that challenged the very foundations of quantum mechanics. Imagine two entangled particles, linked across vast distances. Measure one, and its partner instantly flips its spin – but how? Einstein called it "spooky action at a distance," suggesting secrets hidden within the theory. Was he right? Does information truly travel faster than light? Buckle up for a cosmic chase as we dissect the paradox, explore "hidden variables," and ultimately witness the triumph of quantum entanglement, a phenomenon defying even Einstein's intuition. Are you ready to bend the universe's speed limit? Tune in and find out!
