When 2 particles interacted and they become correlated, or mathematically, their wavefunctions are intertwined and become one wavefunction in superposition, any change (e.g. collapse of wavefunction by taking a measurement or one of the wavefunction encountered a double-slit) to one of the particle will have a nonlocal effect to the other instantaneously, no matter how far the 2 particles are apart in distance.
*wavefunction contains a lot of information. One of them is the probability of finding a particle in a specific location. It is not a definite position but a "wave" spread over a space.
