I posted the following announcement in several internet fora:
For those of you interested in winning the quantum Randi challenge, I've
posted an R script which you can use as basis for your own experiments,
http://rpubs.com/gill1109/QRC . You can read about the QRC in a number
of places, for instance in Sasha Vongehr's paper
http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.5294R is free (both as in "free beer" and as in "free speech" and can be
obtained from
http://R-project.org). It is the programming language of
choice for millions of data scientists throughout the world. It has a
steep learning curve but it pays off to try to climb the hill.
Your job is simply to program three functions which (a) generate hidden
variables for one particle pair at the source (b) compute a measurement
outcome at Alice's station, depending on Alice's setting, which will be
0 or 67.5 degrees, (c) compute a measurement outcome at Bob's station,
depending on Bob's setting, which will be 0 or 45 degrees. The outcomes
are binary (+/-1).
In the script, this is repeated 800 times; the settings being chosen
completely at random. After the experiment has finished, the data is
analysed. The aim is to have
(a) perfect anti-correlation when Alice and Bob have equal settings, and
(b) the number of times both their outcomes are unequal when their
settings differ by 22.5 degrees is larger than the number of time they
are equal when settings differ by 45 degrees plus number of times
unequal when settings differ by 67.5 degrees.
It is not too difficult to invent a local hidden variables theory which
always satisfies (a) and which satisfies (b) with probability half.
Probability half means: in half of the experiments. [Every experiment
has 800 runs, and two new, completely random, setting sequences.]
Quantum mechanics can in theory satisfy (a) always, and it can in theory
satisfy (b) in more than 99% of all experiments.
I remind you again: every experiment consists of exactly 800 runs.
If you win the experiment, don't tell me, but post your script on
internet. Of course the script must be legal, which means that it should
also run on separated computers and without knowing in advance what the
setting sequences will be. If, in such rigorous conditions, it does
indeed succeed, you have created a classical physical system (a
classical computer network) which exhibits quantum correlations
previously believed to be impossible to generate by classical means
without violating locality or arranging some kind of conspiracy. You
will very quickly become famous and win the Nobel prize for your
experimental disproof of Bell's theorem, and for the fact that you have
instantly destroyed the whole quantum entanglement business (quantum
computers, quantum communication, ...). No establishment conspiracy will
be able to stop you.
