Editing No-go theorem (section)

{{short description|Theorem of physical impossibility}}
{{Distinguish|No-ghost theorem}}
In [[theoretical physics]], a '''no-go theorem''' is a [[theorem]] that states that a particular situation is not physically possible. This type of theorem imposes boundaries on certain mathematical or physical possibilities via a [[proof by contradiction]].<ref name=Oldofredi2018>{{cite journal |author1=Andrea Oldofredi|title=No-Go Theorems and the Foundations of Quantum Physics |journal=[[Journal for General Philosophy of Science]] |volume=49 |issue=3 |pages=355–370 |date=2018 |doi=10.1007/s10838-018-9404-5 |arxiv=1904.10991 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |author1=Federico Laudisa|title=Against the No-Go Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics |journal=European Journal for Philosophy of Science |volume=4 |issue=1 |pages=1–17 |date=2014 |doi=10.1007/s13194-013-0071-4 |arxiv=1307.3179 }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |author1=Radin Dardashti|title=No-go theorems: What are they good for? |journal=[[Studies in History and Philosophy of Science]] |volume=4 |issue=1 |pages=47–55 |date=2021-02-21 |doi=10.1016/j.shpsa.2021.01.005|pmid=33965663 |arxiv=2103.03491 |bibcode=2021SHPSA..86...47D }}</ref>
