Wednesday October 6, 6pm PDT (California Time) The Institute for Quantum Studies at Chapman University presents an online discussion between Dr. Roderick Sutherland (University of Sydney, Australia) and Dr. Matthew Leifer (Institute for Quantum Studies, Chapman University).   Dr. Sutherland is a leading advocate of theories involving retrocausation (backwards-in-time influences) as a resolution for the problems

Wednesday, 22 September, 2021 @ 530PM in 208 Argyros Forum Action at a distance is a miracle. Quantum phenomena such as interaction-free measurements, teleportation, Bell-type correlations apparently require such miracles. Accepting the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics avoids the necessity of action at a distance and thus removes paradoxes from quantum theory. Outside visitors to

The Institute for Quantum Studies at Chapman University presents an online discussion between Dr. Rob Spekkens (Perimeter Institute) and Dr. Matthew Leifer (co-Director of the Institute for Quantum Studies at Chapman) on quantum causality.  Robert Spekkens received his B.Sc. in physics and philosophy from McGill University and completed his M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Physics at
