Lambda has no effect on the y coordinate number. Averaging over many random choices just gives you the average of the y coordinate values, irrespective of theta. What the heck is that average supposed to represent?
You are replying to comments that were deemed off-topic for this thread. But anyways, the event by event simulation is for validating the
product calculation only. It is NOT a simulation of an experiment since that is impossible to do because QM can't predict individual event by event outcomes for A and B. There is no averaging at all happening. We are merely comparing correlations of the product calculation with the -cosine curve. They match perfectly to more than 9 significant digits so the theoretical product calculation is validated.
The reason for doing this is that in the past some people (not naming names but you know who you are
) have questioned that the theoretical product calculation could be correct. This validates that it is in fact correct.
