The Parapsychological Association Convention 2004 413 A PRIMARY QUANTUM MODEL OF TELEPATHY

The physical nature of psi phenomena such as telepathy is an important problem in present science of consciousness. Scientists have basically confirmed the existence of telepathy phenomena through many strict experiments. Then can modern science (e.g. quantum theory) provide a scientific explanation for telepathy phenomena? In this paper, we will seek the possible quantum nature of telepathy from both theoretical and experimental aspects, and will present a primary quantum model of telepathy process. It is well known that even though present quantum theory permits the existence of quantum nonlocality, it does forbid the realization of nonlocal communication or quantum superluminal communication (QSC). However, the usual no-go theorems dont consider the possible active role of consciousness during quantum measurement process. In a recent paper (see Found. Phys. Lett, 17(2), 167-182), it has been demonstrated that a proper combination of quantum process and conscious perception will permit the distinguishability of nonorthogonal quantum states, and further result in the realization of QSC or nonlocal communication. This is called the QSC principle. On the basis of the QSC principle, we propose a primary theoretical model of telepathy process. According to the model, the telepathy process mainly includes three phases. The first phase is to form the quantum entanglement state of brains, the second phase is to hold the entanglement state of brains, and the third phase is to collapse the entanglemen
