... But now suppose we do not have any knowledge of, or control over, the photon states- we must then average over these states, in a way consistent with the experimental constraints. In the extreme case this means that we lose all information about the PHASES of the coefficients a1 & a2 (and in particu ...

Probing contextuality with superconducting quantum circuits Talk 27. Oct. 2015 ABSTRACT:
... Contextuality is one of the most fundamental property which distinguishes quantum mechanics from classical theory. It has also been suggested to be the 'magical' resource responsible for an exponential speedup of a quantum computer. We will provide the first experimental evidence of this resource fo ...
