Abstract

We calculate correlation functions for a relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen--type experiment with massive Dirac particles. We take into account the influence of the Newton-Wigner localization and perform the calculations for a couple of physically interesting states. In particular, we show that localization inside detectors does not significantly affect correlation functions in the case when localization regions are macroscopic or in the case when Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen particles are in a definite momentum state (irrespectively of the size of localization regions).

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations of Dirac particles: Quantum field theory approach

Paweł Caban, Jakub Rembieliński

We calculate correlation function in the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen type of experiment with massive relativistic Dirac particles in the framework of the quantum field theory formalism. We perform our calculations for states which are physically interesting and transform covariantly under the full Lorentz group action---i.e., for pseudoscalar and vector states.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations of vector bosons

Paweł Caban, Jakub Rembieliński, Marta Włodarczyk

We calculate the joint probabilities and the correlation function in Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen--type experiments with a massive vector boson in the framework of quantum field theory. We report on the strange behavior of the correlation function (and the probabilities)---the correlation function, which in the relativistic case still depends on the particle momenta, for some fixed configurations has local extrema. We also show that relativistic spin-1 particles violate some Bell inequalities more than nonrelativistic ones and that the degree of violation of the Bell inequality is momentum dependent.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations in a hybrid system

Paweł Caban, Jakub Rembieliński, Piotr Witas +1 more

We calculate the relativistic correlation function for a hybrid system of a photon and a Dirac particle. Such a system can be produced in decay of another spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fermion. We show that the relativistic correlation function, which depends on particle momenta, may have local extrema for fermion velocity of the order $0.5c$. This influences the degree of violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality.

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations and Galilean transformations

In this paper we calculate with full details Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen spin correlations in the framework of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. We consider the following situation: two-particle state is prepared (we consider separately distinguishable and identical particles and take into account the space part of the wave function) and two observers in relative motion measure the spin component of the particle along given directions. The measurements are performed in bounded regions of space (detectors), not necessarily simultaneously. The resulting correlation function depends not only on the directions of spin measurements but also on the relative velocity of the observers.

Strange behavior of the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations

Paweł Caban, Jakub Rembieliński, Marta Włodarczyk

We show that configurations exist in which the correlation functions and the degree of violation of Bell-type inequalities in the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiment have local extrema for some values of the velocities of the EPR particles. Moreover, this strange behavior can be observed for both discussed relativistic spin operators and for spin-$1∕2$ as well as spin-1 particles.
