A model with cosmological Bell inequalities [CL]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1508.01082


We discuss the possibility of devising cosmological observables which violate Bell’s inequalities. Such observables could be used to argue that cosmic scale features were produced by quantum mechanical effects in the very early universe. As a proof of principle, we propose a somewhat elaborate inflationary model where a Bell inequality violating observable can be constructed.
