Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum mechanics where two or more particles become connected in such a way that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other, even if they are separated by a large distance.
Quantum entanglement is a key principle in quantum computing. By utilizing entangled particles, quantum computers are able to perform certain calculations much faster and more efficiently than classical computers.
Yes, quantum entanglement has potential applications in fields such as cryptography, teleportation, and quantum communication. It is also being studied for use in quantum computing and quantum sensors.
No, quantum entanglement is a phenomenon that occurs at a subatomic level and cannot be observed in everyday objects. It requires specialized equipment and conditions to be measured and studied.
Yes, there are many books available that explain quantum entanglement in a way that is accessible to non-experts. Some popular titles include "Quantum Entanglement for Babies" by Chris Ferrie and "The Quantum World: The Disturbing Theory at the Heart of Reality" by New Scientist.
