Teleportation Definition and 114 Threads

Recently, I posted a thread on theories on teleportation:https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=44179I discussed about how the transporter in Star Trek operates and why it would never work. Any procedure that convert matter to energy would be deadly and reconstruct person from this...

Quantum teleportation of the information about particles has been widely reported. Quantum teleportation of macro-physical objects pertains to the remote future. The wormholes of GR are similar to teleportation. But they are quite massive. The Kerr black hole involves mass and rotation...

Im doing a projct in a course in QM and I have decided to write about Q-teleportation. Do we have any people here that know nice sites and articles in the subject? Maybe someone is an expert in the field. Any help would be appreciated. I can't find any topics that talks about Q-teleportation...

so this technology is going to one day be able to transport bigger stuff than a photon. or wtf

Hi all, Can anyone tell me what we can expect in the near future from a science perspective? I know it is not possible to travel faster than light but is teleportation possible? TVs without screen? -benzun

Hello all, I went to a very interesting lecture on Quantum Teleportation, although didn't understand half of it. Anyway, the professor said that this phenomenon has been proven experimentally. The part that I understood was that it is in contradiction with Special Relativity, since the...

Lets assume that it is technically feasible to copy every quanti of the human body and arrange them in perfect harmony. Was hoping to get a debate going as to why so many people are *shrugging* at the concept of teleportation. Mainly the idea that because an original is destroyed somehow were...

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this thread but... Are they possible? I have been watching a lot of StarGate SG-1 and other movies that deal with these two issues. First I want to know if matter can be effectively molecularized and reassambled in its original form (anything -...

Ive been reading nielson and chuangs book "Quantum computation and quantum information" and find the the teleportation of a qubit very intuitiuve. I would like to know how mathematically the same process would apply to a qutrit = a|0> + b|1> + c|2>. can one use the exact same circuit ( ie a...

Hi. I have always always been intrigued by the concept of teleportation and with the recent advances in quantum teleportation at the University of Innsbruck the results are encouraging. However, it should be noted that this form of teleportation doesn't allow physicists to teleport the photon...

do you think teleporting will ever be possible in the future, like going from china to the US in a touch of a botton or something...it would be interesting to see matter disepear and reappear somewhere else...but i don't think it will be ever possible, what you guys think?

Quantum teleportation... Dear reader, I was just wondering weather Quantum teleportation would ever come into existence. I believe it will be like an fax machine. I will be happy if some one would be happy to discuss this topic. -benzun All For God.

This is probably not theoretical anymore, since it is possible to teleport a photon 1 m far ( since last I checked ). This could not be done however without destroying the photon at the starting end. They had to record the quantum state of the particle and send it to the receiving end. After...
