Is a spectrograph of hidden variables possible?
The essentials
- A new definition of "Realism" has been proposed in the field of quantum mechanics by Alejandro A. Hnilo.
- The definition proposes that a hypothetical "spectrograph" of hidden variables should behave like an actual spectrograph that measures wavelengths.
- The question is whether this definition alone can lead to the derivation of Bell's inequalities, which describe the limits on correlations between distant particles in quantum mechanics.
- Hnilo reports that such a spectrograph is compatible with the violation of Bell's inequalities, challenging existing beliefs about the relationship between realism and locality in quantum mechanics.
- Hnilo shows that "Spectrograph's Realism" and "Locality" are two distinct and necessary hypotheses for deriving Bell's inequalities.
- This finding sheds new light on the controversy surrounding the assumptions required for deriving Bell's inequalities and provides insights into how hidden variables could potentially explain quantum phenomena.
- The paper concludes by emphasizing the importance of considering both realism and locality when attempting to derive Bell’s inequalities from first principles.
