Introduction to Quantum Computation THE JOY OF ENTANGLEMENT

So today, the EPR paradox is more paradoxical than ever and generations of physicists have broken their heads over it. Here we explain what makes entanglement so baffl ...

Interpretations of Einstein`s Equation E=mc2 - Philsci

First, some philosophers and physicists have suggested that Einstein’s equation tells us whether the properties mass and energy are the same. Second, some philosophers and physicists have gone further to claim that Einstein’ ...

Does Geometric Algebra provide a loophole to Bell`s Theorem?

The short answer is: because the mapping between 3D geometry and the mathematics of one qubit is already thoroughly understood, while the extension to a system of entangled qubits does not bring in new geometric insights but on the contrary merely reproduces the usual complex Hilb ...
