Entangled photons in superposition state : | Ψ} = (|HV} - | VH})/1/√2 are sent from source to polarizers and then to detectors A and B ( in this setup distance from source to detectors is equal). If A measures vertical photon she knows immediately that B photon must be horizontally polarized.
After the stream of random polarized photons at A and B, are compared for time at detectors being equal
the entangled anti correlated pairs of photons are observed.
In another experimental setup with entangled photons prepared the same way the distance from source to detector A = d and distance from source to detector B = 5d.
Then one of the entangled pair is measured at A(t) = d/c and the other is measured at B(t) = 5d/c
Would you expect that the perfect anti correlations for the entangled pair of photons
to hold in second case ?
