Quantum Entanglement Through a Tube of Nothing

Quantum entanglement is one of the weirdest phenomena in physics. The way it works is that two particles that have been in close contact with each other can continue to communicate even after they have been separated from each other by a considerable distance. Furthermore, the communication is faster than the speed of light. Measurements indicate that it’s instantaneous.

The explanation I’ve proposed for this is that space contains tiny gaps through which communication can be maintained in this way. The gaps are not merely empty, they are without any properties whatsoever. If space is quantized into tiny units, such gaps would be everywhere, but too small to let any particles pass through them. However, any texture on particles will be able to poke into such gaps.

One way of looking at this is to imagine that we have a tube of nothing. Such a tube will have an extent in space. But there will be nothing in it; not even empty space. If we stick something into the tube on one side, it sticks out on the other side, no matter how long the tube is, because the inside of the tube is without extent. If this something gets entangled with something on the other side of the tube, we have communication through the tube of nothing.

Once two particles are entangled, they can stay connected through gaps in space, and we have what we refer to as quantum entanglement.

The above illustration was made by my ten year old son who had no problem grasping this concept, which proves that we have in my physics a simple explanation for this strange and exotic phenomenon.
