John G. Cramer (born 1934) is a Professor of Physics at the University of Washington in Seattle, U.S.. When not teaching, he works with the STAR (Solenoidal Tracker At RHIC) detector at the new Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. He is currently engaged in experiments at the University of Washington to test retrocausality by using a version of the delayed choice quantum eraser without coincidence counting. This experiment, if succesfull, would imply that entanglement can be used to send a signal instantaneously between two distant locations (or a message backwards in time from the apparatus to itself). Such "spooky communication" experiments have never been succesfully conducted, and only attempted a limited number of times, since most physicists believe that they would violate the no-communication theorem; thus they view any attempt as a waste of time and money. However, a small number...
