A Local Theory of Entangled Photons That Matches QM Predictions ()
ABSTRACT
Bell’s theorem,
first presented by John Bell in 1964, has been used for many years to prove that
no classical theory can ever match verified quantum mechanical predictions for entangled
particles. By relaxing the definition of entangled slightly, we have found a mathematical
solution for two entangled photons that produces the familiar quantum mechanical
counting statistics without requiring a non-local theory such as quantum mechanics.
This solution neither is claimed to be unique nor represents an accurate model
of photonic interactions. However, it is an existence proof that there are local
models of photonic emission that can reproduce quantum statistics.
