Disarming the entanglement

Abstract

Some atomic processes produce twin photons, which by conservation of linear momentum are emitted in opposite directions, and by conservation of angular momentum must have orthogonal polarizations. Now, according to a certain interpretation of the quantum model for such a physical process, when one of the photons passes through a polarizer (acquiring the corresponding polarization) simultaneously the twin photon (without having passed through any polarizer) acquires the orthogonal polarization. This phenomenon is what is known as entanglement.

In this article I show that the two assumptions:
i) The photographs lack polarization before having passed through a polarizer,
ii) The polarization state of the pair of photographs, before the measurement is correctly represented by (u_\uparrow\otimes v_\rightarrow+u_\rightarrow\otimes v_\uparrow)/\sqrt{2} which support the appearance of the entanglement phenomenon are incorrect.
