Non-local common cause explanations for EPR
Bell’s theorem Bohmian mechanics EPR experiment GRW mass density theory local causality non-local causes
2016/6/13
The paper argues that a causal explanation of the correlated outcomes of EPR-type experiments is desirable and possible. It shows how Bohmian mechanics and the GRW mass density theory offer such an ex...
Advocates of the counterfactual approach to causal inference argue that race is not a cause, and this despite the fact that it is commonly treated as such by scientists in many disciplines. I object t...
No-common-cause EPR-like funny business in branching space-times
Reichenbach common cause branching space-times EPR indeterminism superluminal causation space-like related correlation
2011/9/6
There is "no EPR-like funny business" if (contrary to apparent fact) our world is as indeterministic as you wish, but is free from the EPR-like quantum-mechanical phenomena such as is sometimes descri...
Measurement Dependence is not Conspiracy: A Common Cause Model of EPR Correlations
Reichenbach´ s Principle of the Common Cause EPR Correlations

In this paper I assess the adequacy of no-conspiracy conditions present in the usual derivations of the Bell inequality in the context of EPR correlations. First, I look at the EPR correlations from a...
Only countable common cause systems exist

In this paper we give a positive answer to a problem posed by G. Hofer-Szabo and M. Redei (2004) regarding the existence of infinite common cause systems (CCSs). An example of a countably infinite CCS...

In this essay, I shall take up the theme of Galileo’s notion of cause, which has already received considerable attention. I shall argue that the participants in the debate as it stands have overlooked...
Experimental Realism Defended: How Inference to the Most Likely Cause Might Be Sound
Causal Inference Experimental Realism Scientific epistemology
2008/4/1
On a purely epistemic understanding of experimental realism, manipulation affords a particularly robust kind of causal warrant, which is – like any other warrant – defeasible. I defend a version of Na...
