Abstract

In a previous paper (arXiv:1008.3661v1[quant-ph] 21 Aug 2010), we have given a purely logical proof of the Conway and Kochen Free Will theorem in QM: the freedom of the observer implies the freedom of the observed particle. Here we show that the hypothesis of the observer's freedom is not necessary: the assumption of the (informal) consistency (non contradiction) of QM implies its non-determinism relative to physical events (the freedom of observed particles).

Why This Paper Matters

This paper contributes to the Quantum Simulation research area in the Quantum Articles archive.
It adds a 2010 reference point for readers tracking recent quantum research.
