Analysis of assumptions in BIG Bell Test experiments
arXiv:1906.05503 · doi:10.1002/andp.202000333
Abstract
Recently, a group of experiments tested local realism with random choices prepared by humans. These various tests were subject to additional assumptions, which lead to loopholes in the interpretations of almost all of the experiments. Among these assumptions are fair sampling, no signaling, and faithful reproduction of a Bell-type quantum model. We examined the data from 9 of 13 experiments and analyzed occurring anomalies in view of the above assumptions. We conclude that further tests of local realism need better setup calibration to avoid apparent signaling or necessity of the complicated underlying quantum model.
