The weird quantum effects seen in Richard Feynman's version of Young's double-slit experiment are shown to be a result of quantum entanglement instead of quantum uncertainty (Copenhagen) or multiverses. (Click here for background on all these terms.) In addition, with two entangled photons, it is possible to collapse the quantum state of one by observing the other - even after the first one has been recorded by a detector. This is the phenomenon of quantum erasure.
