Phénomène selon lequel les statistiques de mesure d'un système quantique multipartite ne permettent aucune interprétation sur le plan de la théorie réalistique locale. 3, record 1, French, - non%2Dlocalit%C3%A9%20quantique
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Il existe une tension connue entre la théorie quantique et la relativité, car les effets quantiques ne permettent pas d'envoyer des messages plus vite que la lumière, mais sont juste à la frontière de cette possibilité. C'est ce qu'on appelle souvent la non-localité quantique. 1, record 1, French, - non%2Dlocalit%C3%A9%20quantique
