A simple hidden variable experiment
An experiment is described which proves, using single photons only, that the standard hidden variables assumptions (commonly used to derive Bell inequalities) are inconsistent with quantum mechanics. The analysis is very simple and transparent.
متن کاملA quantum delayed-choice experiment.
Quantum systems exhibit particle- or wavelike behavior depending on the experimental apparatus they are confronted by. This wave-particle duality is at the heart of quantum mechanics. Its paradoxical nature is best captured in the delayed-choice thought experiment, in which a photon is forced to choose a behavior before the observer decides what to measure. Here, we report on a quantum delayed-...
متن کاملEntanglement-enabled delayed-choice experiment.
Wave-particle complementarity is one of the most intriguing features of quantum physics. To emphasize this measurement apparatus-dependent nature, experiments have been performed in which the output beam splitter of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer is inserted or removed after a photon has already entered the device. A recent extension suggested using a quantum beam splitter at the interferometer'...
متن کاملExperimental Test of Local Hidden-Variable Theories
We have measured the linear polarization correlation between the two photons from the 7 S~-6 P~-6 So cascade of Hg . The results were used to evaluate Freedman's version of the Bell inequality, 5 ~0. Our result is 6~+=+0.046+0.014, in clear violation of the inequality and in excellent agreement with the quantum mechanical prediction, 6Q+ =+ 0.044 +0.007. An important feature of the experiment w...
متن کاملOn Causal Compatibility of Quantum Eld Theories and Space-times
In 7] the notion of causal compatibility is introduced as a method to determine the conformal structure of space-time uniquely by the net of observable algebras of a quantum eld theory. In this work some new aspects of causal compatibility are discussed. In particular it is shown that for a given lattice of algebras there exists up to conformal equivalence at most one Lorentzian manifold which ...
