I propose for your consideration the following version of this experiment:
We have a source, S that produce pairs of spin 1/2 entangled particles and two detectors, A and B that measure the spin of those particles. The detectors are oriented on the same direction, say X and they are fixed. As expected the measurement results will always be anti-correlated.
For the purpose of this discussion I define non-realism as the belief that the neither measured values nor some other property that determines those values exist prior to the measurement. A non-realist will state that there is nothing about the measured particles that determines the measured value of the spin.
Now, I am asking those that consider themselves non-realists how do they explain the observed results in a local way.
Thank you,
Andrei
