Mermin's Suggestion and the Nature of Bohr's Action-at-a-Distance Influence
Henry P. Stapp
Abstract
Mermin suggests comparing my recent proof of quantum nonlocality to Bohr's reply to Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen. Doing so leads naturally to the insight that the nonlocal influence deduced from the analysis of the Hardy experiment is the same as the nonlocal influence deduced by Bohr, and used by him to block the application of the criterion of physical reality proposed by Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen. However, the greater sophistication of the Hardy experiment, as contrasted to the experiment considered by Bohr and the three authors, exposes more clearly than before the nature of this influence, and thereby strengthens Bohr's position.
