What is quantum entanglement?
What is quantum entanglement?
Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon that occurs when pairs or groups of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in ways such that the quantum state of each particle cannot be described independently of the state of the others, even when the particles are separated by a large distance.
What leads to correlations between observable physical properties of entangled systems?
What leads to correlations between observable physical properties of entangled systems?
Quantum entanglement leads to correlations between observable physical properties of the systems.
What does the principle of superposition predict in regards to entangled particles?
What does the principle of superposition predict in regards to entangled particles?
The principle of superposition predicts that the two particles instantly become entangled in a joint state so that the state of one particle immediately influences the state of the other particle.
