摘要:Macrorealism,as defined by Leggett and Garg, posits that a macroscopic system always existsin a well-defined state and that it can be measured without disturbing it. Fromthese assumptions follow a set of inequalities, the Leggett-Garg inequalities,which hold under macrorealism but can be violated by quantum mechanics. Thedegree to which quantum systems can violate these inequalities is bounded and,in particular, if the measurements on the system are genuinely dichotomic, thebound for these temporal inequalities is the same as the Tsirelson bound of thecorresponding spatial Bell inequality. We realise a photonic Leggett-Garg teston a three-level system and implement measurements that admit three distinctmeasurement outcomes, rather than the usual two. In this way we obtainviolations of a Leggett-Garg inequality significantly in excess of theTsirelson bound. This underlines the difference between Bell and Leggett-Garginequalities and hence spatial and temporal correlations in quantum mechanics.We also report violations of a second consequence of macrorealism, thequantum-witness equality, up to the maximum permitted for a three-outcomemeasurement.
