Ghosts of energy waiting to become physical reality…responding to our beliefs and expectations.
Matter organizes its self according to how you think..!!

Numbers are the Supreme Court of science. However Godel proved that we may not prove everything. There are Physics Foibles!!

great story! Im 43 and working on a problem for 8 years just when I think I should quit I get motivated to keep going…thanks.

Comment on Bell’s inequality by Ed Unverricht

You may be interested in a local realistic model of a photon being used in the Dehlinger and Mitchell setup.

http://www.animatedphysics.com/photons/bells_inequality.htm

The linear photon is modelled as not only having a specific “average” polarization direction (as is modelled by Dehlinger and Mitchell), but also as having a “wobble” or “instantaneous” polarization direction. This “wobble” of the linear polarization introduces all the right properties required to be able to properly model photon polarization and have it match reality.

The sample 24° photon, with a 30° wobble, will most of the time be picked up as a vertical, but sometimes when the angle is over 45°, it will be picked up as a horizontal. This invalidates the grouping of N_1, N_2, etc. since a photon measured at an angle to its polarization, has a probability of being measured different.

Not sure if you would have any comments or questions, but I would appreciate hearing them if you do.
