A "Spoof Loophole" Contra Nonlocality

Abstract

A model for experiments testing Bell Inequalities is presented that does not involve nonlocal effects. It constitutes essentially a physical explanation of a "loophole" in the logic of these experiments, which, if not excluded, in principle nullifies the conventional conclusions, namely, that some kind of nonlocal interrelationship is intrinsic to quantum mechanics. The mechanism of the model "spoofs" the results predicted by conventional analysis employing quantum principles, without, however, using any of them.
