On Stapp-Unruh-Mermin Discussion on Quantum Nonlocality: Quantum Jumps and Relativity
Vladimir S. Mashkevich
Abstract
We argue that the participants of the discussion have overlooked an essential circumstance, in view of which Stapp's fifth proposition fails. The circumstance is that though L and R measurements, being causally separated, are not invariantly time ordered, quantum-jump hypersurfaces associated with the measurements are causelikewise ordered. Stapp's fifth proposition is true iff L hypersurface precedes R one; but within the limits of special relativity, it is impossible to determine the causelike order of those hypersurfaces. The entire Stapp's construct is revised.
