32. One can verify this by assuming physical locality [20] and by inserting the relation E(α,β)=4pαβ-1 into the CHSH inequality (see also Cereceda [30]).
33. For this numerical study, also the restriction to measurement directions lying in the x-z plane has been waived, thereby demanding only the separability of the projection operators into two subspaces corresponding to the left- and right-hand side of the experimental setup.
