Is entanglement really necessary for describing the physical world, or is it possible to have some post-quantum theory without entanglement? In a new study, physicists have mathematically proved that any theory that has a classical limit-meaning that it can describe our observations of the classical world by recovering classical theory under certain conditions-must contain entanglement...

Entanglement becomes Easier to Measure

Quantum systems consisting of many particles can enter highly intricate states with strong so-called multiparticle entanglement. A new-found theoretical relation now allows extracting it with standard tools available in scattering experiments. Credit: IQOQI/Ritsch

New Protocol to detect Entanglement of Many-Particle Quantum states has been developed. These systems could help us not only to improve our understanding of matter but to develop measurement techniques beyond current existing technologies. Entanglement is a consequence of the probabilistic rules of quantum mechanics and seems to permit a peculiar instantaneous connection between particles over long distances that defies the laws of our macroscopic world – a phenomenon that Einstein referred to as “spooky action at a distance.”
