Abstract: A hidden-variables model is presented which, by using a hypothesis of \”directionalization\” of the photons at the deflectors, is able to reproduce all the quantum mechanical predictions for the Orsay realization of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen-Bohm experiment, even for ideal polarizers, detectors, time-coincidence windows, and \”event-ready\” setups. The model also holds for the no-enhancement assumption. The requirements for an experiment aimed to discriminate between quantum mechanics and the new model are discussed. Under some plausible assumptions, such experiment is achievable with the current technology. It would be essentially a remarke of the Orsay one with improved deflectors and a time-resolved measurement of the photon flows toward each detector.
