Editor’s choice: quantum entanglement
When the quantum states of two particles (e.g. photons) cannot be considered independently, we refer to quantum entanglement. In the case of two entangled particles, for example, this means that a measurement of one particle collapses not only its wave-function (and therefore determines its state), but also that of its twin. Nowadays, entangled particles are studied for a variety of applications including quantum information, quantum computing, and quantum imaging, since their exploitation is expected to be paramount for the next generation of science technologies. Here we present the latest research articles which rely on the exciting phenomenon of quantum entanglement.
