Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Test of Bell's Inequalities Using Time- Varying Analyzers
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship of linear polarizations of pairs of photons was measured with time-varying analyzers, and the results were in good agreement with quantum mechanical predictions but violate Bell's inequalities by 5 standard deviations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Realization of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm Gedankenexperiment : A New Violation of Bell's Inequalities
TL;DR: In this article, the linear-polarization correlation of pairs of photons emitted in a radiative cascade of calcium has been measured using two-channel polarizers (i.e., optical analogs of Stern-Gerlach filters).
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Tests of Realistic Local Theories via Bell's Theorem
TL;DR: In this article, the linear polarization correlation of the photons emitted in a radiative atomic cascade of calcium was measured, in excellent agreement with the quantum mechanical predictions, strongly violate the generalized Bell's inequalities, and rule out the whole class of realistic local theories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct observation of Anderson localization of matter waves in a controlled disorder

TL;DR: This work directly image the atomic density profiles as a function of time, and finds that weak disorder can stop the expansion and lead to the formation of a stationary, exponentially localized wavefunction—a direct signature of Anderson localization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Evidence for a Photon Anticorrelation Effect on a Beam Splitter: A New Light on Single-Photon Interferences
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on two experiments using an atomic cascade as a light source, and a triggered detection scheme for the second photon of the cascade, which is in contradiction with any classical wave model of light but in agreement with a quantum description involving single-photon states.
