Test of quantum nonlocality via vector meson decays to $K_SK_S$
Abstract
In the system of a pair of quantum-entangled neutral kaons from meson decays, when one kaon collapses into the state, the other will collapse instantaneously into the state due to entanglement and nonlocality. However, if the alternative hypothesis is correct and there's a time window during which one kaon is unaware that the other has decayed, some quantum mechanically prohibited decays may occur. We calculate the branching ratios of in vector meson decays under the locality hypothesis and compare them with experimental results. We show that the branching ratio of under locality assumption is already excluded by the BESIII experimental upper limit. Additional experimental results are proposed to perform this test in the future.
