True, but what I'm going for here (since this technological leap happened during the plot), is a way to say something other, and hopefully more interesting than "they figured out how to transfer FTL data."

Hey all, I need help with the book I'm currently writing. What would it take (even theoretically) to use quantum entanglement for FTL data transfer? From what I understand, the state of entangled particles can not be changed without breaking the entanglement. Do you think this would ever be...

Thanks, Stevie, I'll check those out.

Thanks, Peter. About your other response, the reason I'm not reading textbooks or papers is that, as I said, I have no education in Physics or Math, and it seems reasonable to assume that if I want to understand the general idea (I know, I know, "If you think you understand..." and so on) then...

Hey all, there is something I'm having trouble with here. If two entangled particles are created and then separated, say one is on Earth and the other in near-earth orbit (like the Chinese experiment), and the one on Earth is measured at say a vertical spin of -1, and at the same time the one...

Ha! silly indeed... unfortunately my novel is very realistic and as grim and dark as they come, but thanks for your idea nonetheless! :)

Thanks, Jarvis :) will look into the PDF, sounds interesting!

Interesting, I'll read up on it. Thanks gentzen.

Yes, sorry if I wasn't clear. I originally wrote this in the quantum physics forum (didn't notice that there was a sci-fi forum...) and an admin moved it. Over there it made more sense...

Summary:: Looking for ideas for my book about future QP applications. Hey everyone, I'm writing a sci-fi thriller set 25 years in the future, where my main character and his team are trying to stop an artificial superintelligence that is operating on the world's most powerful quantum...

Hey everyone :) title kinda says it all... Here to learn more, ask questions, and do some (more) research.
