Violations of local realism in multiphoton interference experiments
Abstract
Spontaneous parametric down-conversion is a convenient source of pairs of entangled photons. Within special interferometric configurations involving either two sources of this kind or double emissions from such a source, one can observe three-photon Greenberger-Horne-Zeilenger--type interference effects. Unfortunately, events of some other types necessarily occur. It is shown that under specific operational conditions, thus far not met by the experiments, the entirety of the phenomena observed in such experiments has no local realistic model. However, one can show this only by analyzing the entire pattern of all events predicted by quantum mechanics.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
