General Hardy-Type Paradox Based on Bell inequality and its Experimental Test


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Local realistic models cannot completely describe all predictions of quantum mechanics. This is known as Bells theorem that can be revealed either by violations of Bell inequality, or all-versus-nothing proof of nonlocality. Hardys paradox is an important all-versus-nothing proof and is considered as the simplest form of Bells theorem. In this work, we theoretically build the general framework of Hardy-type paradox based on Bell inequality. Previous Hardys paradoxes have been found to be special cases within the framework. Stronger Hardy-type paradox has been found even for the two-qubit two-setting case, and the corresponding successful probability is about four times larger than the original one, thus providing a more friendly test for experiment. We also find that GHZ paradox can be viewed as a perfect Hardy-type paradox. Meanwhile, we experimentally test the stronger Hardy-type paradoxes in a two-qubit system. Within the experimental errors, the experimental results coincide with the theoretical predictions.
