Abstract

I report on the discovery of quantum compatible local variables that are shared between subsystems of quantum-conventionally entangled physical systems such that they determine the correlations of spatially separated systems while preserving strict Einstein locality. This puts an end to the mystery of spooky action at a distance and alleged collapse at a distance, answering vital questions, first raised in the EPR paper, on the behaviour of spatially separated entangled systems. The solution helps to understand quantitative measures of entanglement in a transparent way. It also provides new insight, consistent with strict locality, of the physics of quantum teleportation and related phenomena.
