Strange behavior of the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations

Abstract

We show that configurations exist in which the correlation functions and the degree of violation of Bell-type inequalities in the relativistic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiment have local extrema for some values of the velocities of the EPR particles. Moreover, this strange behavior can be observed for both discussed relativistic spin operators and for spin-1/2 as well as spin-1 particles.
