Timing and Other Artifacts in EPR Experiments
摘要
Re-evaluation of the evidence (some of it unpublished) shows that experimenters conducting Einstein-Podolsky-Bohm (EPR) experiments may have been deceived by various pre-conceptions and artifacts. False or unproven assumptions were made regarding, in some cases, fair sampling, in others timing, accidental coincidences and enhancement. Realist possibilities, assuming a purely wave model of light, are presented heuristically, and suggestions given for fruitful lines of research. Quantum Mechanics can be proved false, but Bell tests have turned out to be unsuitable for the task.
