Summary
We show that it is impossible to formulate a sufficient condition for the decay of a two-body system to be describable only in terms of an objective local theory. It is always possible to construct nonlocal theories that reproduce all the observable consequences of any arbitrary objective local theory.
Riassunto
Si mostra che è impossibile formulare una conduzione sufficiente per il decadimento di un sistema di due corpi descrivibile solo in termini di una teoria locale oggettiva. È sempre possibile costruire teorie non locali che riproducono tutte le conseguenze osservabili di qualsiasi teoria locale oggettiva arbitraria.
Резюме
Мы показываем, что невозможно сформулировать достаточные условия для описания распада двухчастичной системы только в терминах объективной локальной теории. Всегда можно сконструировать нелокальные теории, которые воспроизводят все наблюдаемые следствия любой объективной локальной теории.
