Nathan Rosen

Nathan Rosen was an influential physicist known for his work in quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity. He is best remembered for the "EPR Paradox," which he co-developed with Albert Einstein and Boris Podolsky in 1935. This thought experiment questioned the completeness of quantum mechanics by illustrating strange correlations observed in entangled particles, challenging the notion of locality and reality in physics. Rosen's contributions have had a lasting impact on discussions about quantum entanglement, influencing both theoretical research and the foundation of quantum information science.
