Jackles, Please define 'Locality' and 'Non-Locality' as you are using the terms.
To me 'Locality' would be something (object, thought, or energy) that can be identified as being in a finite place.
'Non-Locality' would be something (as above) that is ubiquitous and everywhere.
Good luck with that it seems to be some sort of Buddhist thing related to Atma existing everywhere at once. Non local as is defined in physics means exactly the former answer you gave.
Einstein called the entanglement issue in quantum mechanics, spooky action at a distance to try to rubbish the theory in his EPR paper claiming any theory of quantum mechanics was necessarilly incomplete because faster than light travel is impossible, as it turned out though special relativity is not violated in any quantum experiment, and claiming it has been usually is met with abject derision. See also the Bell's-Aspect experiment as to why quantum entanglement must be non local and either real or non real to satisfactorily explain quantum entanglement, meaning any local real theories with hidden variables say were intrinsically flawed.Real meaning the wave exists as pictured non real meaning it is symbolic and a mathematical approximation at best. Einstein had to eat crow at the Solvey conference when his arguments were disproved very definitely by Bohr, Heisenberg, Pauli, Dirac et al.
"My only regret is that I will not be alive to see the demise of quantum mechanics."
Erwin Schrödinger, ironic considering he pretty much formalised the theory with his equations.
Dirac generalised the Schrödinger equation in 3 dimensions. It is now useful in equating hydrogen spectra to the wave.
The Dirac equation.
p1,p2,p3 equate to space, and i equates to x,y,z at time(t).
The hamiltonian is shown by the greek letter and denotes probability amplitudes according to the hyperfine energy quanta in a hydrogen atom, any more complex atoms such as helium are not able to be modelled because of the sheer complexity, I am sure you know of the 3 body problem.
e=mc^2 is obviously in the equation as beta.
Three-body problem has two distinguishable meanings in physics and classical mechanics:
In its traditional sense, the three-body problem is the problem of taking an initial set of data that specifies the positions, masses and velocities of three bodies for some particular point in time and then determining the motions of the three bodies, in accordance with the laws of classical mechanics (Newton's laws of motion and of universal gravitation).
In an extended modern sense, a three-body problem is a class of problems in classical or quantum mechanics that model the motion of three particles.
Historically, the first specific three-body problem to receive extended study was the one involving the Moon, the Earth and the Sun.[1]
