How can you set up an entanglement experiment?

AI Thread Summary
Setting up an in-house entanglement experiment is feasible, particularly with photon-based experiments, but it can be quite costly, potentially comparable to the price of a new car. While a physics lab may seem specialized, it often resembles a typical basement setup. The discussion highlights that minimal entanglement experiments can be conducted at home, but they still require significant investment, including specialized equipment. Overall, while home experiments are possible, they come with financial and practical challenges.

Is it possible to set up an in house entanglement experiment? Would you need to carry out the experiment in a lab and is it costly?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to PF;
You could probably do some of the photon ones at home but it would be expensive.
Off the top of my head - about as expensive as a new car?

There is nothing particularly special about a physics lab - it's just someone's basement normally.
What you have basically asked is what it would cost to set up a minimal entanglement lab ;)
 
I have an at home entanglement experiment every couple of weeks involving a couple of 100ft extension cords.
 
... good point: I have one involving heartstrings ... those can be very expensive indeed, and often require specialized equipment.

TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...
guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
