Quantum no-hiding theorem experimentally confirmed for first time
(PhysOrg.com) -- In the classical world, information can be copied and deleted at will. In the quantum world, however, the conservation of quantum information means that information cannot be created nor destroyed. This concept ...

New method to detect quantum mechanical effects in ordinary objects
At the quantum level, the atoms that make up matter and the photons that make up light behave in a number of seemingly bizarre ways. Particles can exist in "superposition," in more than one state at the same time (as long ...

Physicists 'entangle' individual molecules for the first time, hastening possibilities for quantum computing
For the first time, a team of Princeton physicists have been able to link together individual molecules into special states that are quantum mechanically "entangled." In these bizarre states, the molecules remain correlated ...

Researchers work to ensure accurate decoding in fragile quantum states
When computers share information with one another, the information gets encoded into bits, then decoded back into its original form. In the process, pieces of the information sometimes get scrambled, or lost. As a simplified ...
