A Bigger Contradiction Between Quantum Theory and Locality for Two Particles Without Inequalities

  • Chapter
New Developments on Fundamental Problems in Quantum Physics

Part of the book series: Fundamental Theories of Physics ((FTPH,volume 81))

Abstract

A previously published proof of nonlocality without inequalities for two particles is presented in a simple form. This proof goes through for only 9 % of pairs of particles. It is shown how it can be generalised so that the proof goes through for almost 50% of pairs.
