Consequently, the entangled particles can never become separated in the 4th spatial dimension no matter how far they have moved apart in the other 3 spatial dimensions. Because the quark and lepton families represent specific different discrete symmetry binary subgroups of SU(2), we can establish that the quantum states of the fundamental particles are defined in 4 spatial dimensions, so there is then no need for a spacetime communication from one detector (or particle) to inform the other detector (or particle) of the physical state of the first detected entangled particle. A clever experiment needs to determine whether the fundamental particles actually experience a 4th spatial dimension, and if so, whether they experience the 4th spatial dimension as the time dimension simultaneously.
