A Kochen-Specker Theorem for Imprecisely Specified Measurement

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A recent claim that finite precision in the design of real experiments ``nullifies'' the impact of the Kochen-Specker theorem, is shown to be unsupportable, because of the continuity of probabilities of measurement outcomes under slight changes in the experimental configuration.
