Advancing Quantum Nonlocality: Empirical Support and Reconciliation with Special Rlativity

Abstract

The concept of quantum entanglement has been a subject of intense research and debate since its introduction by Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen in 1935. The apparent incompatibility between the nonlocal correlations predicted by quantum mechanics and the principles of special relativity, has led to various attempts to reconcile these two foundational theories. In this paper, we present the Nested Wave Theory, which postulates a mechanism of quantum entanglement based on the concept of a subluminal mediating wave (Wave 1) and quantum harmonic oscillator (QHO) model. We discuss the key experimental evidence supporting the Nested Wave Theory, including the work on entangled photon pair generation, the interferometric imaging of spatial biphoton states, and the long-distance entanglement distribution achieved in the Micius satellite experiment. We also highlight the theoretical foundations of the Nested Wave Theory, drawing on coupled harmonic oscillators and the concept of gradual decoherence.
