Non-locality refers to the phenomenon where particles instantaneously affect each other's state, regardless of the distance separating them, challenging classical notions of space and causality. This principle is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, illustrating that the universe is far more interconnected than previously thought.

Quantum mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that describes the physical properties of nature at the smallest scales, such as atoms and subatomic particles. It introduces concepts like wave-particle duality, uncertainty principle, and quantum entanglement, which challenge classical intuitions about the behavior of matter and energy.

Causality refers to the relationship between causes and effects, where one event (the cause) directly influences the occurrence of another event (the effect). Understanding causality is crucial in fields such as science, philosophy, and statistics, as it allows for the prediction, explanation, and manipulation of phenomena.
