Quantum Physics Information Teleportation

OK, that’s not a title you read every day. If you are at all interested in quantum physics (what? some people aren’t?) the use of quantum physics for incredible calculations and for transmitting information instantaneously across distances is fascinating.

So here’s an article indicating that they’ve done it. Sort of. I must point out that if you don’t have a basic understanding of quantum physics you probably won’t understand the article.

My favorite quote is at the end,

the efficiency of the procedure is still too low to be useful. Currently, only about one out of every 100 million attempts results in a successful entanglement…

If only I could succeed at something one out of every 100 million tries and have them write an article about me…
