A Miracle of Physics Born of Quantum-Mechanical Conceptions
Igor Kuzmin
Abstract
Abstract This paper presents an alternative, strictly local, and physically substantiated interpretation of quantum entanglement, the violation of Bell's inequalities, and related quantum-optical phenomena, completely eliminating the generally accepted concept of quantum non-locality. Working within the ether-dynamic paradigm of a discrete, massless, non-viscous medium, a standard photon is defined not as an abstract wave packet or a point-like probabilistic excitation, but as an equidistant, localized chain of interconnected toroidal vortices (Planck particles), which originates from the transverse reconnection and self-segmentation of the atomic electric field during its detachment. Using the Hong–Ou–Mandel effect, experiments testing Bell's inequalities (via the spatial geometry of the intersection of field precession cones), and induced coherence (the ZWM experiment), it is demonstrated that the observed synchronization of split detectors is governed by local, deterministic processes of sub-quantum self-organization, near-field dynamic entrainment, and the formation of a spatial minimum of motion between coaxial vortex structures. Keywords: quantum entanglement, Bell's inequalities, non-locality, ether-dynamics, Hong–Ou–Mandel effect, ZWM experiment, Planck particles, Helmholtz vortices, spontaneous parametric down-conversion, field precession cones.
