Experiments towards Falsification of Noncontextual Hidden Variable Theories

Markus Michler, Harald Weinfurter, Marek Żukowski

We present two experiments testing the hypothesis of noncontextual hidden variables. The first one is based on observation of two-photon pseudo-Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger correlations, with two of the originally three particles mimicked by the polarization degree of freedom and the spatial degree of freedom of a single photon. The second one, a single-photon experiment, utilizes the same trick to emulate two particle correlations, and is an "event ready" test of a Bell-like inequality, derived from the noncontextuality assumption. Modulo fair sampling, the data falsify noncontextual hidden variables.

Proposed Experiment to Test Local Hidden-Variable Theories

John F. Clauser, Michael Horne, Abner Shimony +1 more

A theorem of Bell, proving that certain predictions of quantum mechanics are inconsistent with the entire family of local hidden-variable theories, is generalized so as to apply to realizable experiments. A proposed extension of the experiment of Kocher and Commins, on the polarization correlation of a pair of optical photons, will provide a decisive test between quantum mechanics and local hidden-variable theories.
