Violation of an inequality in an experimental test of Leggett's non-local hidden variable theory
I impose previously neglected symmetry conditions in Leggett's non-local hidden variable theory that are required by the conditions in a recent experimental test of this theory. These conditions lead to an inequality for the polarization correlation function that has a maximal violation from the quantum predictions that is 2.5 times larger than reported in this article. Furthermore, when these symmetry conditions are applicable, Leggett's non-local theory also cannot model the observed quantum correlations in previous experiments.
