Fake violations of Bell tests reinforce importance of closing loopholes
(PhysOrg.com) -- In quantum mechanics, Bells inequalities serve as a test of nonclassical behavior: if something (such as a light source) violates Bells inequalities, then it can be considered to involve quantum ...
Physicists offer countermeasure to new quantum eavesdropping attack
(PhysOrg.com) -- As early communications systems using quantum cryptography become commercially available, physicists have been investigating new types of security attacks in an effort to defend against them. ...
Quantum eavesdropper steals quantum keys
(PhysOrg.com) -- In quantum cryptography, scientists use quantum mechanical effects to encrypt and then communicate confidential information. Although quantum cryptography codes are unbreakable in principle, even the best ...
Making quantum cryptography truly secure
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is an advanced tool for secure computer-based interactions, providing confidential communication between two remote parties by enabling them to construct a shared secret key ...

Physicists close two loopholes while violating local realism
(PhysOrg.com) -- The latest test in quantum mechanics provides even stronger support than before for the view that nature violates local realism and is thus in contradiction with a classical worldview. By ...
Large Hadron Collider experiments bring new insight into primordial universe
(PhysOrg.com) -- After less than three weeks of heavy-ion running, the three experiments studying lead ion collisions at the LHC have already brought new insight into matter as it would have existed in the ...
