Einstein-separability, time related hidden parameters for correlated spins, and the theorem of Bell

Abstract

We analyze the assumptions that are made in the proofs of Bell-type inequalities for the results of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen type of experiments. We find that the introduction of time-like random variables permits the construction of a broader mathematical model which accounts for all correlations of variables that are contained in the time dependent parameter set of the backward light cone. It also permits to obtain the quantum result for the spin pair correlation, a result that contradicts Bell's inequality. Two key features of our mathematical model are (i) the introduction of time operators that are indexed by the measurement settings and appear in addition to Bell's source parameters and (ii) the related introduction of a probability measure for all parameters that does depend on the analyzer settings. Using the theory of B-splines, we then show that this probability measure can be constructed as a linear combination of setting dependent subspace product measures and that the construction guarantees Einstein-separability.
