Retrocausality (also called retro-causation, backward causation and similar terms is any of several hypothetical phenomena or processes that reverse Causality A delayed choice quantum eraser is a cross between a Quantum eraser experiment and Wheeler's delayed choice experiment. In Cryptography, coincidence counting is the technique (invented by William F Such an experiment has never been conducted because many physicists believe that its hypothesis would violate the no signalling condition of quantum mechanics.

In addition to his many scientific publications[1], John Cramer writes a regular column, "The Alternate View", for Analog Science Fiction and Fact magazine; Cramer's column alternates with those of Jeffrey Kooistra. Analog Science Fiction and Fact is an American Science fiction Magazine. He also originated and published a paper on "The Transactional Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics" (TIQM) in July 1986. The transactional interpretation of Quantum mechanics ( TIQM) is an Interpretation of quantum mechanics that describes quantum interactions in terms of a [2] His published novels consist of the acclaimed Twistor (1989) and Einstein's Bridge (1997); both within the hard science fiction genre. Einstein's Bridge is a Hard science fiction novel by John G Cramer, first published in June 1997 Hard science fiction is a category of Science fiction characterized by an emphasis on scientific or technical detail or on scientific accuracy or on both
Cramer's simulation of the sound of the Big Bang, created using Mathematica, attracted some mainstream press attention in late 2003. The Big Bang is the cosmological model of the Universe that is best supported by all lines of scientific evidence and Observation. Mathematica is a computer program used widely in scientific engineering and mathematical fields Year 2003 ( MMIII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. The simulation originated with an "Alternate View" article, "BOOMERanG and the Sound of the Big Bang" (January 2001). Year 2001 ( MMI) was a Common year starting on Monday according to the Gregorian calendar. [3] Cramer describes the sound as "rather like a large jet plane 100 feet off the ground flying over your house in the middle of the night. "
