Default News: Physicists Seek Answers to Quantum Correlations

Physicists Seek Answers to Quantum Correlations

After performing multiple tests on two entangled photons, physicists have
yet again found that the photons seem to be communicating faster than the
speed of light - at least 100,000 times faster. The researchers hope that
their results might encourage theorists to come up with new explanations for
the strange quantum mechanical effect.



Various candidate GUTs seem to be treating space-time itself as an
atomic structure. So nothing travelling in "space-time" can go faster
than light, including light itself. What if these things are travelling
in the underlying void? If space-time is atomic, then there must be
something even more fundamental underneath it, right?
