| contents | Long-range quantum correlations between particles are usually formulated by assuming the persistence of an entangled state after the particles have spearated. Here this approach is re-examined based upon studying the correlations present in a pair of EPR spins. Two types of correltions are identified. The first, due to the quantum interference terms is parity. This symmetry property characterizes entanglement. Second is correlation due to conservation of angular momentum. The two contributions are equal and have the same functional form. When entanglement is present, Bell's inequalities are violated but when parity is destroyed by disentanglement, Bell's inequalities are satisfied. It is shown tht some experiments which have hiterto been interpreted by entangled states can be better described by disentanglement. Implications for quantum non-locality are discussed. |
