Does anyone know how big that ensemble of rubidium atoms is?
Let me make sure I understand quantum teleportation correctly, I probably don't. Some scientists entangle two rubidium atoms. Then they separate them at a speed less than the speed of light, in this case 150 metres away. They then change one set of the rubidium atoms and the other set 150 metres away changes instantaneously? Am I right? More details would help.
These guys have teleported quantum information from ensemble of rubidium atoms to another ensemble of rubidium atoms over a distance of 150 metres using entangled photons. That's the first time that anybody has performed teleportation from one macroscopic object to another.
