Was Bell working in physics during the 1960s?

  • Yes

  • No

  • He studied physics but did not yet work in the field

  • It's unknown

Answer

Yes, Bell worked in physics during the 1960s. During this time, he was primarily focused on the study of quantum entanglement, a phenomenon in which particles become correlated in such a way that they instantly influence each other's states, regardless of the distance between them. Bell's work in this field led to the development of Bell's theorem, which provides a fundamental test of quantum mechanics.
