Generalized measurements and local realism
The structure of a local hidden variable model for experiments involving sequences of measurements is analyzed. Constraints imposed by local realism on the conditional probabilities of the outcomes of such measurement schemes are derived. Therefore, we claim that the so-called “hidden” nonlocality leads directly to a violation of the premisses of local realism. This claim is further supported b...
متن کاملGeneralized quantum measurements and local realism
The structure of a local hidden variable model for experiments involving sequences of measurements is analyzed. Constraints imposed by local realism on the conditional probabilities of the outcomes of such measurement schemes are explicitly derived. The violation of local realism in the case of “hidden nonlocality” is illustrated by an operational example. Typeset using REVTEX 1
متن کاملMacroscopic Local Realism Incompatible with Quantum Mechanics: Failure of Local Realism where Measurements give Macroscopic Uncertainties
We show that quantum mechanics predicts a contradiction with local hidden variable theories for photon number measurements which have limited resolving power, to the point of imposing an uncertainty in the photon number result which is macroscopic in absolute terms. We show how this can be interpreted as a failure of a new premise, macroscopic local realism. Bell [1] in 1966 showed that the pre...
متن کاملLocal Realism and Conditional Probability
Emilio Santos has argued (Santos, Studies in History and Philosophy of Physics http://arxiv-org/abs/quant-ph/0410193) that to date, no experiment has provided a loophole-free refutation of Bell’s inequalities. He believes that this provides strong evidence for the principle of local realism, and argues that we should reject this principle only if we have extremely strong evidence. However, rece...
متن کاملNew Tests of Macroscopic Local Realism using Continuous Variable Measurements
We show that quantum mechanics predicts an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox (EPR), and also a contradiction with local hidden variable theories, for photon number measurements which have limited resolving power, to the point of imposing an uncertainty in the photon number result which is macroscopic in absolute terms. We show how this can be interpreted as a failure of a new, very strong premise...
