As with the CHSH test, there are four subexperiments in which each polariser takes one of two possible settings, but in addition there are other subexperiments in which one or other polariser or both are absent.

His public standing was dented by controversy over his promotion of the " Energy Polariser " and domestic violence allegations leveled by an ex-wife, with calls to keep him out of the Australian Motor Sport Hall of Fame.

The easiest way to make a circularly polarised light filter is to combine a linear polariser with a quarter plate of birefringent material ( BTW that also explain the slightly purpleish shade that I had observed but neglected to mension ).

Malus'law, which is named after �tienne-Louis Malus, says that when a perfect polariser is placed in a linear polarised beam of light, the intensity, " I ", of the light that passes through is given by

In practice, some light is lost in the polariser and the actual transmission of unpolarised light will be somewhat lower than this, around 38 % for Polaroid-type polarisers but considerably higher ( > 49.9 % ) for some birefringent prism types.

We might perhaps suppose the polarisers to be perfect, with output intensity of polariser A proportional to " cos " 2 ( " a " & minus; ? ), but reject the quantum-mechanical assumption that the function relating this intensity to the probability of detection is a straight line through the origin.
