    Notes: Abstract In previous works, Suppes and de Barros used a pure particle model to derive interference effects, where individual photons have well-defined trajectories, and hence no wave properties. In the present paper we extend that description to account for the Casimir effect. We consider that the linear momentum ∑ 1/2hk of the vacuum state in quantum electrodynamics corresponds to the linear momentum of virtual photons. The Casimir effect, in the cases of two parallel plates and the solid ball, is explained in terms of the pressure caused by the photons. Contrary to quantum electrodynamics, we assume a finite number of virtual photons.

    Notes: Abstract We use a local theory of photons purely as particles to model the single-photon experiment proposed by Tan, Walls, and Collett. Like Tanet al. we are able to derive a violation of Bell's inequalities, but our local probabilistic theory does not use any specific quantum mechanical assumptions or calculations.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this paper is to extend Bell's inequalities to obtain some general necessary conditions for the existence of a joint probability distribution for any finite collection of Bell-type random variables. Our results show that forN 〉 4 many new elementary inequalities beyond those of Bell must be satisfied by any hidden variable theory.

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract We assume: (i) Photons are emitted by harmonically oscillating sources. (ii) They have definite trajectories. (iii) They have a probability of being scattered at a slit. (iv) Detectors, like sources, are periodic. (v) Photons have positive and negative states which locally interfere, i.e., annihilate each other, when being absorbed. In this framework we are able to derive standard diffraction and interference results. We thereby eliminate in this approach wave-particle duality for photons, and give nonparadoxical answers to standard questions about interference. For example, in the two-slit experiment each photon goes through only one slit.
