Abstract :
In classical physics, there is no contradiction in considering that systems like balls and coins have preestablished properties like position and velocity that are independent of whether one actually measures them or not. However, according to quantum mechanics, the results of experiments on systems such as atoms and photons do not correspond to preestablished properties. A natural and fundamental question is: Which is the simplest quantum system in which this difference between classical and quantum physics can be observed?
