A theoretical physicist who coauthored the 1935 Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen paradox argument with Albert Einstein and Boris Podolsky. The paper asks whether predicting a distant system's measurement result with certainty, without disturbing it, establishes an element of reality absent from a complete wave function description. Its concrete tension between correlations, locality and completeness helped motivate later Bell tests.[ref]
