Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the relationship between quantum teleportation and the EPR paradox. Participants seek to understand the basic concepts and readings related to these topics, particularly in the context of quantum mechanics.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses interest in studying teleportation and the EPR paradox, requesting basic explanations and readings.
  • Another participant questions the connection between the EPR paradox and teleportation.
  • A suggestion is made to search for articles on "Quantum Teleportation" and a specific book by David Darling is recommended as a potential resource.
  • A different participant mentions quantum tunneling as a form of "teleportation" but seeks clarification on its relation to the EPR paradox.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not appear to reach a consensus on the connection between the EPR paradox and teleportation, with some questioning the relevance of EPR to teleportation.

Contextual Notes

Participants express varying levels of understanding and background in quantum mechanics, which may influence their interpretations and questions regarding the topics discussed.

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to study the topic of teleportation, and thus want to understand the EPR paradox.
could you reffer me to some readings?
(I have only basic background with quantum mechanics, so I would appreciate some basic explanations on reality, locallity, the paradox itself, etc.)

if you have some nice observations that I can learn from, you are of course very very welcomed to post them here too.

thanks!
Ron

What reason do you have to think that EPR has anything to do with teleportation?

Googling 'Quantum Teleportation' will bring up lots of articles on the subject. If you're looking for a book then you might find David Darling's Teleportation: The impossible leap of interest (link is to my review of the book)
 
I know that quantum tunneling is, in a sense, a type of "teleportation" but my question still is, what does that have to do with EPR?
