  • Marek Żukowski
چکیده

A certain class of parametric down-conversion Bell type experiments has the following features. In the idealized perfect situation it is in only 50% of cases that each observer receives a photon; in the other 50% of cases one observer receives both photons of a pair while the other observer receives none. The standard approach is to discard the events of the second type. Only the remaining ones are used as the data input to some Bell inequalities. This raises justified doubts whether such experiments could be ever genuine tests of local realism. We propose to take into account these “unfavorable” cases and to analyze the entire pattern of polarization and localization correlations. This departure from the standard reasoning enables one to show that indeed the experiments are true tests of local realism.

We measure the period and spin-down rate for SGR 1900+14 during the quiescient period two years before the recent interval of renewed burst activity. We find that the spin-down rate doubled during the burst activity which is inconsistent with both mangetic dipole driven spin down and a magnetic field energy source for the bursts. We also show that SGRs 1900+14 and 1806-20 have braking indices o...

Kar’s recent proof showing that a maximally entangled state of two spin-1/2 particles gives the largest violation of a Bell inequality is extended to N spin-1/2 particles (N ≥ 3). In particular, it is shown that all the states yielding a direct contradiction with the assumption of local realism do generally consist of a superposition of maximally entangled states. Recently, Kar (see Ref. [1], a...
