I do wonder,       however, if there is a similar effect for massive particles. After all,       if either of the massive particles is observed (interacts with a photon or       other particle) then the entanglement is broken/not observed. In quantum       mechanics can we really say anything about what happens between interactions       (emission, absorbtion or scattering)?              Rich L.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
