Quantum Computers, Factoring, and Decoherence
... Many are skeptical of the possibility of building useful quantum computers. This attitude is largely fuelled by the inevitability of decoherence and the fragility of the information encoded in coherent quantum superposition[13, 14]. In particular, error correction which ensures reliability of classi ...

... Let’s imagine that A doesn’t click so B does. After passing A the field collapses in the lower path. If A doesn’t reveal the photon is because A didn’t interacted with the field. But why the field collapses in lower path if there was not interaction? Are there two different kind of interaction? Is ...
