We analyze the premises of recent propositions to test local realism via Bell-inequalities using neutral kaons from $\Phi$-resonance decays as entangled EPR-pairs. We pay special attention to the derivation of Bell-inequalities, or related…
We extend the use of Bell-inequalities to $\Phi \to K^0 \bar{K^0}$ decays by exploiting analogies and differences to the well-known and experimentally verified singlet-spin case. Contrasting with other analyses, our Bell-inequalities are…
The nonlocal property of quantum mechanics can be nicely tested in high energy physics; in particular, the neutral kaon pairs as produced at DA$\Phi$NE, Frascati, are very well suited. The analogies of kaons as compared to polarized photons…
We demonstrate the relevance of entanglement, Bell inequalities and decoherence in particle physics. In particular, we study in detail the features of the ``strange'' $K^0 \bar K^0$ system as an example of entangled meson--antimeson…
We formulate a set of Bell's inequalities for the system of two correlated neutral kaons coming from the decay of a phi-meson, without assuming CP and CPT invariance. We show that a non-vanishing value of the phenomenological parameter…
First a generalized Bell-inequality for different times and for different quasi-spin states is developed. We focus on special quasi-spin eigenstates and times. The inequality based on a local realistic theory is violated by the CP-violating…
We derive new Bell's inequalities for entangled K0 anti-K0 pairs. This requires 1) mutually exclusive setups allowing either K0 vs anti-K0 or KS vs KL detection and 2) the use of kaon regenerators. The inequalities turn out to be…
We propose Bell inequalities for discrete or continuous quantum systems which test the compatibility of quantum physics with an interpretation in terms of deterministic hidden-variable theories. The wave function collapse that occurs in a…
We derive a Bell inequality based on a generalized quasiprobability function which is parameterized by one non-positive real value. Two types of known Bell inequalities formulated in terms of the Wigner and Q functions are included as…
We report a single-neutron optical experiment to demonstrate the violation of a Bell-like inequality. Entanglement is achieved not between particles, but between the degrees of freedom, in this case, for a single-particle. The spin-{\small…
Bell's theorem sets a boundary between the classical and quantum realms, by providing a strict proof of the existence of entangled quantum states with no classical counterpart. An experimental violation of Bell's inequality demands…
The predictions of local realistic theories for the observables concerning the evolution of a $K^0\bar{K}^0$ quantum entangled pair (created in the decay of the $\phi$-meson) are discussed. It is shown, in agreement with Bell's theorem,…
Recently a new class of time-dependent Bell inequalities in Wigner form was introduced. The structure of the inequalities allows experimental studies of quantum and open quantum systems in external fields. In this paper we study the…
For the entangled neutral kaon system we formulate a Bell inequality sensitive to CP violation in mixing. Via this Bell inequality we obtain a bound on the leptonic CP asymmetry which is violated by experimental data. Furthermore, we…
We show that the relation between nonlocality and entanglement is subtler than one naively expects. In order to do this we consider the neutral kaon system--which is oscillating in time (particle--antiparticle mixing) and decaying--and…
The quasi-spin entanglement of neutral mesons to test the Bell nonlocality is systematically studied. In the case of CP violation, the concrete expression of the Bell inequality for entangled neutral meson pairs is derived. The violation of…
We briefly illustrate a few tests of quantum mechanics which can be performed with entangled neutral kaon pairs at a Phi-factory. This includes a quantitative formulation of Bohr's complementarity principle, the quantum eraser phenomenon…

The strength of classical correlations is subject to certain constraints, commonly known as Bell inequalities. Violation of these inequalities is the manifestation of nonlocality---displayed, in particular, by quantum mechanics, meaning…
Entanglement and its consequences - in particular the violation of Bell inequalities, which defies our concepts of realism and locality - have been proven to play key roles in Nature by many experiments for various quantum systems.…
