einstein-podolsky-rosen experiments

The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiments refer to a series of thought experiments conducted by Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathan Rosen in 1935. They aimed to challenge the completeness and accuracy of quantum mechanics by proposing a hypothetical situation involving entangled particles. These experiments involve measuring properties of entangled particles in order to test the concept of "spooky action at a distance," influencing one particle's properties instantaneously by altering the other's, regardless of their spatial separation. The EPR experiments played a crucial role in highlighting the concept of entanglement and sparked discussions about the fundamental nature of quantum mechanics.
