Phys. Rev. Lett. 54, 1790–1793 (1985)Polarization Correlation of the Two Photons Emitted by Metastable Atomic Deuterium: A Test of Bell's InequalitySee Also: Erratum Received 28 January 1985; published in the issue dated 22 April 1985 The polarization correlation of the two photons emitted simultaneously by metastable atomic deuterium in a true second-order decay process has been measured for the first time. The results are in agreement with quantum mechanics and violate Bell's inequality by nearly 2 standard deviations in an experiment where the process of absorption and reemission is not important. © 1985 The American Physical Society URL:
