چکیده
We demonstrate that the EPR-Bohm probabilities can be easily obtained in the classical (but contextual) probabilistic framework by using the formula of interference of probabilities. From this point of view the EPR-Bell experiment is just an experiment on interference of probabilities. We analyze the time structure of contextuality in the EPR-Bohm experiment. The conclusion is that quantum mechanics does not contradict to a local realistic model in which probabilities are calculated as averages over conditionings/measurements for pairs of instances of time t 1 < t 2. If we restrict our consideration only to simultaneous measurements at the fixed instance of time t we would get contradiction with Bell's theorem. One of implications of this fact might be the impossibility to define instances of time with absolute precision on the level of the microscopic realistic model. 1. Introduction.In a series of papers, see, e.g., [1] it was demonstrated that interference of probabilities(which is always considered as one of the main distinguishing features of quantum mechanics, e.g. [2]) can be easily derived in contextual statistical framework (without

We analyze anomalies in data to test the violation of Bell's inequality for the EPR-Bohm experiment. We found that the experimental correlations for photon polarization have an intriguing property. In the experimental data there are visible non-negligible deviations of probabilities P

Reviewing the general representation of a stochastic local hidden variables theory in the context of an ideal Bohm's version of the EPR experiment, we show explicitly that the violation of Bell's locality condition is due to the assumption of " outcome independence " at the hidden variables level. Also, we show that if we introduce determinism, the assumption of outcome independence will be all...

The effect of time-varying electromagnetic fields on electron coherence is investigated. A sinusoidal electromagnetic field produces a time varying Aharonov-Bohm phase. In a measurement of the interference pattern which averages over this phase, the effect is a loss of contrast. This is effectively a form of decoherence. We calculate the magnitude of this effect for various electromagnetic fiel...

We argue that EPR-type correlations do not entail any form of “non-locality”, when viewed in the context of a relational interpretation of quantum mechanics. The abandonment of strict Einstein realism advocated by this interpretation permits to reconcile quantum mechanics, completeness, (operationally defined) separability, and locality.
