Probe Absorption Spectroscopy As a Tool to Study the Excited States in a Cooperative System of Two Organic Molecules

The applicability of the method for measuring the probe absorption and gain spectra in a system of quantum emitters excited by a resonant driving field for studying cooperative photoluminescence is considered. The gain and attenuation of a probe signal in the system of two quantum emitters with the dipole–dipole interaction have been calculated for the conditions of observing the cooperative photoluminescence of a pair of impurity molecules described in the literature and close to them. The resulting dependences demonstrate the structure of excited collective molecular states, which can be used to reconstruct the positions of molecules in a matrix and to determine the difference in their photophysical properties. Thus, the probe absorption and gain spectra can be used to analyze the photoluminescence of quantum-entangled particles and to transform light signals.

Quantum double-double-slit experiment with momentum entangled photons

Double-double-slit thought experiment provides profound insight on interference of quantum entangled particles. This paper presents a detailed experimental realisation of quantum double-double-slit thought experiment with momentum entangled photons and theoretical analysis of the experiment. Experiment is configured in such a way that photons are path entangled and each photon can reveal the which-slit path information of the other photon. As a consequence, single photon interference is suppressed. However, two-photon interference pattern appears if locations of detection of photons are correlated without revealing the which-slit path information. It is also shown experimentally and theoretically that two-photon quantum interference disappears when the which-slit path of a photon in the double-double-slit is detected.

Quantum entanglement of a harmonic oscillator with an electromagnetic field

At present, there are many methods for obtaining quantum entanglement of particles with an electromagnetic field. Most methods have a low probability of quantum entanglement and not an exact theoretical apparatus based on an approximate solution of the Schrodinger equation. There is a need for new methods for obtaining quantum-entangled particles and mathematically accurate studies of such methods. In this paper, a quantum harmonic oscillator (for example, an electron in a magnetic field) interacting with a quantized electromagnetic field is considered. Based on the exact solution of the Schrodinger equation for this system, it is shown that for certain parameters there can be a large quantum entanglement between the electron and the electromagnetic field. Quantum entanglement is analyzed on the basis of a mathematically exact expression for the Schmidt modes and the Von Neumann entropy.

A Semi-Harmonic Frequency Pattern Organizes Local and Non-Local States by Quantum Entanglement in both EPR-Studies and Life Systems

A novel biophysical principle: the GM-model was revealed, describing an algorithm for coherent and non-coherent electromagnetic (EM) frequencies that either sustain or deteriorate life conditions. The particular frequency bands could be mathematically positioned on a Pythagorean scale, based on information distribution according to ratios of 2:3 in 1:2. The particular scale exhibits a core pattern of twelve eigenfrequency functions with adjacent self-similar patterns, according to octave hierarchy. In view of the current interest in coherency and entanglement in quantum biology, in the present paper, we report on a meta-analysis of 60 papers in physics that deal with the influence of electromagnetic frequencies on the promotion of entangled states in, so called, EPR experiments. Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen originated the EPR-correlation thought experiment for quantum-entangled particles, in which particles are supposed to react as one body. The meta-analyses of the EPR-experiments learned that entanglement, achieved in the experiments is real, and applied frequencies are located at discrete coherent configurations. Strikingly, all analysed EPR-data of the independent studies fit precisely in the derived scale of coherent frequency data and turned out to be virtually congruent with the above mentioned semi-harmonic EM-scale for living organisms. This implies that the same discrete coherent frequency pattern of EM quantum waves that determine local and non-local states is also applicable to biological order and that quantum entanglement is a prerequisite for life. The study may indicate that the implicate order of pilot-wave steering system, earlier postulated by David Bohm is composed of discrete entangled EM wave modalities, related to a pervading zero-point energy information field.

First step for quantum sea comms

For the first time, quantum entangled particles of light have been transmitted through water--a step towards using lasers to send underwater messages that are impossible to intercept. Now Xianmin Jin and his colleagues at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China have been able to transmit entangled photons through a 3-meter-long container of sea water without disturbing their quantum link. As the first experiment of its kind, it is not clear whether this will be enough to build a communications system. But Jin says this is only the beginning. His calculations suggest that it should be possible to transmit through nearly 900 meters of water.

Entanglement: A Modern Aspect of Nature

The intention of this paper is to provide an easy to understand introduction to the peculiarities of entangled systems. A novel description for strong (mass entanglement) and weak (spin-or-bital and thermal entanglement) quantum entangled particles is discussed and applied to the phenomena of superconductivity, superfluidity and ultracold gases. A brief statement about how to represent the physical reality of quantum-entanglement as Quantum-Field-Theory (QFT) is noted.

Spurious indications of energetic consequences of decoherence at short times for scattering from open quantum systems

Dreismann, Gray and Blach (DGB) have claimed that neutron scattering from molecular hydrogen at energy transfers E sufficiently large to break the H-H bond, gives E ∼3% larger than predicted by conventional quantum theory. DGB presented this claim as the first experimental evidence for energetic consequences of decoherence of quantum entangled particles due to interactions with the environment. It is shown here this claim is entirely spurious. DGB obtained disagreement with conventional theory by changing the geometrical description of the Vesuvio instrument at ISIS, they used to collect their data. Instead of using the default scattering angles obtained from neutron diffraction, DGB used scattering angles obtained using a steel rule and protractor. DGB then manufactured apparent but in fact completely spurious evidence for quantum decoherence effects from the large measurement errors in the scattering angles they used. These give shifts to both higher and lower E than predicted by conventional quantum theory. DGB simply ignored detectors giving shifts to lower values of E. DGB also ignored previously published H2 data that clearly contradict their claim.

Indications of energetic consequences of decoherence at short times for scattering from open quantum systems

Decoherence of quantum entangled particles is observed in most systems, and is usually caused by system-environment interactions. Disentangling two subsystems A and B of a quantum system AB is tantamount to erasure of quantum phase relations between A and B. It is widely believed that this erasure is an innocuous process, which e.g. does not affect the energies of A and B. Surprisingly, recent theoretical investigations by different groups showed that disentangling two systems, i.e. their decoherence, can cause an increase of their energies. Applying this result to the context of neutron Compton scattering from H2 molecules, we provide for the first time experimental evidence which supports this prediction. The results reveal that the neutron-proton collision leading to the cleavage of the H-H bond in the sub-femtosecond timescale is accompanied by larger energy transfer (by about 3%) than conventional theory predicts. It is proposed to interpreted the results by considering the neutron-proton collisional system as an entangled open quantum system being subject to decoherence owing to the interactions with the “environment” (i.e., two electrons plus second proton of H2).

Dynamics of two quantum entangled particles interacting with a potential barrier in an EPR experiment

Abstract The effect of a position measurement on one component of a two-particle wave packet in a regularized space-momentum entangled state is analyzed. The wave packet interacts in the physical space with a potential barrier. When a position or momentum measurement is performed on one particle, a consequent strong modification of the dynamics of the other particle occurs.

Scientific Review: Neutron Compton Scattering Unveils Short-Lived Quantum Entanglement of Hydrogen in Condensed Matter

Multiparticle quantum entanglement (QE) and its dynamical properties are in the focus of several experimental and theoretical fields of modern physics and engineering (e.g., quantum optics, quantum computation, quantum cryptography, and teleportation). This is due to the potential applicability of QE for quantum computers and quantum information technology. If the quantum entangled particles are sufficiently isolated from their environment, coherence can persist for long times and quantum phenomena are revealed. However, under realistic conditions, the entangled objects are continuously interacting with their environment. Thus, coherence is lost and classicality emerges. This process is called decoherence [1] and represents the main problem for the realization of a quantum computer.
