Abstract

I show how to make sense of physical probability even for a single atom at a single time in an otherwise empty universe. The ideas are in https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.12954 and http://arxiv.org/abs/2505.06983. As applied to the EPRB setup, probability defined in this way is perfectly local.
