A stochastic local realist model for the EPR atomic-cascade experiment which reproduces the quantum-mechanical coincidence rates

Abstract

We show that a recent model of Barut and Meystre is not local realist, but that by suitable modification it besomes one for the particular case of EPR atomic-cascade experiments, using either one-channel or two-channel analyzers. It exhibits clearly the enhancement property necessary for a model violating the second Clauser-Horne inequality. It satisfies the Bell inequality, and it may be used to understand more clearly that the quantum model for real analyzers also satisfies this inequality.
