Minimal Assumption Derivation of a Bell-type Inequality
نویسندگان
چکیده
John Bell showed that a big class of local hidden-variable models stands in conflict with quantum mechanics and experiment. Recently, there were suggestions that empirically adequate hidden-variable models might exist which presuppose a weaker notion of local causality. We will show that a Bell-type inequality can be derived also from these weaker assumptions.

Minimal Assumption Derivation of a weak Clauser-Horne Inequality
According to Bell’s theorem a large class of hidden-variable models obeying Bell’s notion of local causality conflict with the predictions of quantum mechanics. Recently, a Bell-type theorem has been proven using a weaker notion of local causality, yet assuming the existence of perfectly correlated event types. Here we present a similar Bell-type theorem without this latter assumption. The deri...
متن کاملBell-type Inequalities from Separate Common Causes
In the light of recent discussions we present the main results of our project, the aim of which was to derive a Bell-type inequality from the weakest possible assumptions. A principal outcome of the project is that a Bell-type inequality can be derived from the assumption of separate common causes (Graßhoff, Portmann and Wüthrich 2005), even without the assumption of perfectly anticorrelating e...
متن کاملA Bell-type Inequality for Real Experiments and The Relevance of Fair Sampling Assumption
In the experimental verification of Bell’s inequalities in real photonic experiments, it is generally believed that the so-called fair sampling assumption (which means that a small fraction of results provide a fair statistical sample) has an unavoidable role. Here, we want to show that the interpretation of these experiments is really independent of the fair sampling assumption. For this purpo...
متن کاملViolation of Bell’s inequality under strict Einstein locality conditions
We observe strong violation of Bell’s inequality in an Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen type experiment with independent observers. Our experiment definitely implements the ideas behind the well known work by Aspect et al. We for the first time fully enforce the condition of locality, a central assumption in the derivation of Bell’s theorem. The necessary space-like separation of the observations i...
متن کاملLocal deterministic model of singlet state correlations
The derivation of Bell inequalities requires an assumption of measurement independence, related to the amount of free will experimenters have in choosing measurement settings. Violation of these inequalities by singlet state correlations, as has been experimentally observed, brings this assumption into question. A simple measure of the degree of measurement independence is defined for correlati...
