EPR paradox

[Kazbadan]

Have you ever heard talk about "EPR Paradox"?

Basically it says that if you "pick up" a particle (be it an electron, neutron, whatever) and divide it apart in two or so, then some nice things may happen: for example, if you seperate both particles for a long distance, with no possible conections between them, then if you move the particle One into one direction, the Particle Number 2 will move too (dont remember if will do the simetric move or the same move).


This is my very rude way to explain EPR paradox. Now my question, for guys that may understand about these, is: was this EPR paradox been prooved? When? How? I never heard that there are physical proofs or evidences that EPR paradox is real...do you?


btw, i was to post this on a science forum in which i am a member, but due to some problems it is impossible to post or read posts.

I think this is what they are building that huge partical accelerator for in europe...im too lazy to get a link though just google it

i made a quick search on google but didnt find nothing about proofs.

anyway, the accelerator its CERN, i think is very famous around here, in Europe (i mean, normal people dont kknw it, just people interested in science).

I've read about this in various quantum physics books.Apparently it's true, but I'm not 100% sure.

If it is, it really shows how little we understand.

the qst link does not work the other it seems nice. I will read it carefully.
