Scientists discover that time is just an illusion

75. Interesting Question

Entanglement may very well be tied to the fact that many processes, such as electrons moving through quantum orbital states, emit or absorb light as part of the process (this is how laser's work). If light effectively is timeless, this may very well explain quantum entanglement if the same electron became bound to another atom (or similar quantum well) at a different point in its trajectory. My college quantum physics classes were a LOOONG time ago, but it's an intriguing notion nonetheless.
