Sections 4-6 plus the appendix of the earlier version, which treat specialized topics that do not bear on the main theme, have now been eliminated", "categories": [ "quant-ph" ], "abstract": "This paper describes a device, consisting of a central source and two widely separated detectors with six switch settings each, that provides a simple gedanken demonstration of Bell's theorem without relying on either statistical effects or the occurrence of rare events. The mechanism underlying the operation of the device is revealed for readers with a knowledge of quantum mechanics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2003-01-18T16:25:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "bells theorem", "simple demonstration", "probabilities", "inequalities", "simple gedanken demonstration" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
