Spin-parity effect in violation of Bell’s inequalities for entangled states of parallel polarization
Bell’s inequalities (BIs) derived in terms of quantum probability statistics are extended to general bipartite-entangled states of arbitrary spins with parallel polarization. The original formula of Bell for the two-spin singlet is slightly modified in the parallel configuration, while the inequality formulated by Clauser–Horne–Shimony–Holt (CHSH) remains unchanged. The violation of BIs indeed resulted from the quantum nonlocal correlation for spin-[Formula: see text] case. However, the inequalities are always satisfied for the spin-1 entangled states regardless of parallel or antiparallel polarizations of two spins. The spin parity effect originally demonstrated with the antiparallel spin-polarizations (Z. Song, J.-Q. Liang and L.-F. Wei, Mod. Phys. Lett. B 28 (2013) 145004) still exists for the parallel case. The quantum nonlocality does not lead to the violation for integer spins due to the cancellation of nonlocal interference effects by the quantum statistical average. Again, the violation of BIs seems to be a result of the measurement-induced nontrivial Berry phase (BP) for half-integer spins.
