could you entangle a charm meson?

Is it possible to entangle and teleport a charm meson?

I ask this because if you could, it would be traveling faster than light (instantaniously) and if it is traveling faster than light it would have to travel in time, if we could teleport a charm meson since we can observe the time shifts of charm mesons (experiment E687) we could send it through time. could you entangle a charm meson in our time frame that is partially decayed with one in another time frame that is traveling at high speeds?

I don't see why a charmonium meson (J/Psi) couldn't in theory be entangled. I don't suppose they know how to do that yet.

Your comments about "faster than light" show that you don't truly understand the principle of quantum entanglement. I do suggest that you read the threads on EPR and entanglement on this forum, and especially the posts by vanesch and Dr. Chinese, who have a clear picture of how it works and have explained it about as clearly as it can be explained.

The bottom line is that the connection is just a correlation, not a link, and it cannot be exploited to send information FTL. By "cannot" I mean the theory is against it, not that they just don't know how.
 


It is currently not possible to entangle a charm meson, as entanglement requires two particles to be in close proximity and interact with each other. Charm mesons, being unstable particles, decay very quickly and it is not possible to keep them in a stable state for long enough to entangle them with another particle. Additionally, the concept of teleportation and time travel through entanglement is still in the realm of theoretical physics and has not been proven to be possible. While experiments have shown that entangled particles can exhibit correlated behavior, this does not necessarily mean that information can be transmitted faster than the speed of light or that time travel is possible. Much more research and experimentation is needed in this area before we can definitively say whether it is possible to entangle a charm meson and use it for teleportation or time travel.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles.

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
