    Challenges→If λ-distribution held, superluminal signaling would be possible in principle

    Bell correlations in standard quantum mechanics exhibit outcome dependence but not parameter dependence, so introducing λ-distribution restores local outcome correlations without introducing parameter dependence.

    Key Terms

    Bell correlations(quantum mechanics)
    A type of connection between particles discovered by physicist John Bell, where measuring one particle instantly affects what you'll find when measuring another particle, even if they're far apart.
    Local outcome correlations(quantum mechanics)
    Connections between measurement results that happen only between nearby things, without any influence traveling faster than light.
    Outcome dependence(quantum mechanics)
    When the result you get from measuring one thing depends on the result someone else got from measuring something else.
    Quantum mechanics(the scientific framework being discussed)
    The science of how the tiniest things in the universe (atoms, electrons, photons) behave—which turns out to work very differently than everyday objects.

    parameter dependence(EPR/B experiment models)

    λ-distribution (lambda-distribution)(quantum mechanics)
    A mathematical tool (the Greek letter λ stands for 'lambda') that physicists use to represent hidden information that might explain why particles seem connected in ways we don't fully understand.
