(PhysOrg.com) -- When it comes to nonlocal correlations, some correlations are more nonlocal than others. As the subject of study for several decades, nonlocal correlations (for example, quantum entanglement) ...


The Death of Entanglement: Life Without Half-Life

Physics / General Physics

created Feb 03, 2009 | popularity 4.3 / 5 (17) | comments 23

(PhysOrg.com) -- Quantum entanglement, a type of correlation peculiar to quantum objects, has been found to disregard completely the "half-life" rule that is obeyed by all natural processes, such a radioactive decay.
