Abstract

We offer an interpretation of superquantum correlations in terms of a “doubly” quantum theory.We argue that string theory, viewed as a quantum theory with two deformation parameters, the string tension α', and the string coupling constant gs, is such a superquantum theory that transgresses the usual quantum violations of Bell's inequalities. We also discuss the ℏ→∞ limit of quantum mechanics in this context. As a superquantum theory, string theory should display distinct experimentally observable supercorrelations of entangled stringy states.
