| Popis: | A theory of electron spin is developed here based on the extended least action principle and assumptions of intrinsic angular momentum of an electron with random orientations. By incorporating appropriate relative entropy for the random orientations of intrinsic angular momentum in the extended least action principle, the theory recovers the quantum formulation of electron spin. The two-level quantization of spin measurement is a natural mathematical consequence. The formulation of measurement probability when a second Stern-Gerlach apparatus is rotated relative to the first Stern-Gerlach apparatus, and the Schr\"{o}dinger-Pauli equation, are also derived successfully. Furthermore, we provide an intuitive physical model and formulation to explain the entanglement phenomenon between two electron spins. In this model, spin entanglement is the consequence of correlation between the random orientations of the intrinsic angular momenta of the two electrons. Since the orientation is an intrinsic local property of electron, the correlation of orientations can be preserved even when the two electrons are remotely separated. Such a correlation can be manifested without causal effect. Owing to this orientation correlation, the Bell-CHSH inequality is shown to be violated in a Bell test. A potential experiment is proposed to test the validity of the present theory. In a typical Bell test that confirms the violation of Bell-CHSH inequality, the present theory suggests that by adding a sufficiently large time delay before Bob's measurement, the Bell-CHSH inequality can become non-violated. Limitations of the theory are also discussed to inspire further investigations on a more rigorous physical model of electron spin. Comment: 24 pages, 7 figures.
