In this paper I show that the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm Gedankenexperiment and so-called entanglement of photons have a simple explanation within the framework of classical electrodynamics if we take into account the discrete (atomic) structure of the detectors and a specific nature of the light-atom interaction. In this case we do not find such...

The principle of least action is arguably the most fundamental principle in physics as it can be used to derive the equations of motion in various branches of physics. However, this principle has not been experimentally demonstrated at the quantum level because the propagators for Feymann's path integrals have never been observed. The propagator is...

The speed of the transmission of a physical signal from a sender to a receiver is limited by the speed of light, regardless of the physical system being classical or quantum. In this sense, quantum mechanics can not provide any enhancement of the speed of information. If instead we consider that the information needing to be transmitted is not loca...

Single photon source for use in quantum cryptography should show higher order photon antibunching. We have analyzed non classical effect i.e. higher order photon antibunching in pump mode of eight-wave mixing non linear optical process using short time interaction technique and also the dependence of non classicality on the number of photons prior...

Wave-particle duality is the most fundamental description of the nature of a quantum object which behaves like a classical particle or wave depending on the measurement apparatus. On the other hand, entanglement represents nonclassical correlations of composite quantum systems, being also a key resource in quantum information. Despite the very rece...

The production of pairs of entangled photons simply by focusing a laser beam onto a crystal with a non-linear optical response was used to test quantum mechanics and to open new approaches in imaging. The development of the latter was enabled by the emergence of single photon sensitive cameras able to characterize spatial correlations and high-dime...

... One of the most mysterious of quantum mechanics is the entanglement phenomenon, which shows strong correlation of the behavior of quantum objects, even when they are separated by a large distance [1,2]. According to quantum mechanics, a state of each such an object cannot be described independently, instead a quantum state must be described for the system as a whole [3]. By other words entangled state cannot be factorized into a product of two states associated to each object. ...
... As the pump beam interacts with these nonlinear crystals, single photon split into entangled "signal" and "idler" photons with wavelengths longer than the pump [4]. The entanglement phenomenon was considered for the first time by A. Einstein, B. Podolsky, and N. Rosen and was developed further by D. Bohm who described what came to be known as the EPRB Gedanken experiment and EPRB paradox [3]. ...
... So that quantum mechanical calculations suggest that although each individual measurement gives random results, these random results are correlated. This means that immediately after the first measurement, photon takes the polarization |a〉 , the distant photon which has not yet interacted with any polarizer has also been projected into the state |a〉with a well define polarization, parallel to the one found for photon [3]. ...
