Superposition and Entanglement of Polarized Photons without Hidden Variables — •Eugen Muchowski — Primelstraße 10, 85591 Vaterstetten

Superposition and mixtures of indistinguishable photon beams are equivalent under certain conditions. This idea explains the correlations of entangled photons as well as entanglement swapping and teleportation without using hidden variables. This sheds new light on the Einstein-Bohr debate. The superposition of indistinguishable photon beams can be experimentally demonstrated with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
