A Local-Realistic Quantum Mechanical Model of Spin and Spin Entanglement (1901.00369v6)

Abstract: This paper aims at reproducing quantum mechanical (QM) spin and spin entanglement results using a realist, stochastic, and local approach, without the standard QM mathematical formulation. The concrete model proposed includes the description of Stern-Gerlach apparatuses and of Bell test experiments. Single particle trajectories are explicitly evaluated as a function of a few stochastic variables that they assumedly carry on. QM predictions re retrieved as probability distributions of similarly-prepared ensembles of particles. Notably, it is shown that the proposed model, despite being both local and realist, is able to violate the Bell--CHSH inequalities by exploiting the coincidence loophole and thus intrinsically renouncing to one of the Bell's assumptions.
