ABSTRACT: Entanglement and the tunnel effect phenomena have
been repeatedly observed and are generically accepted under orthodox quantum
mechanics formalism. However, they remain rather inexplicable in the context of
spacetime usual conceptualization. In the present work, we suggest an
alternative quantum mechanics formalism, refining the pilot-wave theory
initially proposed by de Broglie. We suggest that spacetime is an emergent
phenomenon from a prior subquantum medium and that entanglement and the tunnel
effect can be explained in terms of a nonlinear relation between space and time
that is imposed by subquantum waves.
