Teleportation, introduced in science fiction literature, is an instantaneous change of the position of a macroscopic object. Two teleportation-like phenomena have been predicted by quantum mechanics: quantum teleportation and, more recently, quantum particle teleportation. Here, we introduce the third teleportation-like phenomenon — apparent teleportation. It seems to be a natural consequence of the Standard Model’s indistinguishable elementary particles and antiparticles. We illustrate the idea within a 1+1D toy model of particle–antiparticle creation and space-time evolution obeying transport locality. Furthermore, we propose a novel method to observe apparent teleportation driven by strong interactions through measurements of correlations between the momenta of charm and anticharm hadrons in nuclear collisions. Observing the apparent teleportation would uncover the basic transport properties of indistinguishable particles. Abstract Published by the Jagiellonian University 2026 authors

We report on the possibility of teleportation of a quantum particle, a distinctly different phenomenon from the teleportation of a quantum state through entanglement. With the first meaning, teleportation is theoretically possible by placing the particle initially at rest (with a certain uncertainty) out of any equilibrium point of a potential well or barrier and by frequently monitoring whether the particle remains at rest. This quantum Zeno dynamics inhibits acceleration, and features disappearance from the classical turning point and appearance in another turning point, if there is any other, with a probability that approaches unity by increasing the frequency of the measurements. This phenomenon has all the ingredients attributed in science fiction to teleportation: The particle is always at rest, cannot be found in the path between the two turning points, and saves travel time. We discuss the feasibility, in principle, of teleportation of electrons, protons, and other particles, and conclude its increasing impracticability as the particle gets heavier. Nevertheless, our paper establishes a basis for further studies in which the projective and instantaneous measurements are replaced by more realistic models.
Until recently, only science-fiction authors ventured to use a term teleportation. However, in the last few years, on the eve of upcoming new millennium, the situation changed very much. The present report gives a synopsis of main concepts in this area. The readers will be able to make sure that paradoxical phenomena in the microcosm give a possibility to demonstrate the exchange of properties between microobjects, removed at a very large distance from each other, when no forces act between them. A new experimental scheme with hydrogen and helium nuclei is proposed. It is expected that the results of these experiments will be considered as teleportation of nuclear properties of atoms of the simplest chemical elements. A problem of teleportation of the more palpable cargo is left to the physics of the more distant future.
Quantum Teleportation is a hypothetical but logical application of Quantum Entanglement, which is basically a non-classical and strange phenomenon. It involves instantaneous communication between two very far situated particles through any non- perceivable link and can be considered to communicate more than the speed of light, and this fact holds the power to stand against Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity. Here the ‘Hidden Variable Theory’ comes into play, and there is a synchronisation between the variables in such a way that leads to their communication. But, whenever there is a simultaneous result from a particle in response to an event occurring on the other particle, it violates ‘The Principle of Locality’. Evidently, there has to be some connection through other spatial dimensions as predicted by the String Theory. It can also be true that, entangled particles take shortcuts for communication across universe which is generally referred to ‘Space-time Wormholes’. Magnetic wormholes have been created till date by manipulating electromagnetic fields, but Space time wormholes are yet to be discovered. Logically, such kind of wormholes can be created only by manipulating the mysterious ‘Gravitational Waves’ which possesses extraordinary characteristics of producing rhythmic but alternate expansion and compression in the Space-time fabric, of intensity equal to the frequency of the wave. As these waves create distortion in space-time fabric, it results in change in the speed of light with respect to time. So it might be possible that entangled particles communicate at a speed higher than that of light which is beyond perception. It might also be possible that the universe is ‘SuperDeterministic’.
Transmission of a polarization state The word “teleportation” comes from parapsychology and means transportation of persons or things from one place to another using mental power. It was taken over into science fiction literature, where the transport is imagined to take place instantaneously. However this is still to be invented, and is surely nonsense – relativity theory teaches us that the velocity of light is the upper bound for the motion of an object. Nevertheless, teleportation has occupied a firm place in our fantasies, and when renowned quantum physicists (as has happened) use this word, they can be sure to attract attention. So, what is it all about? The basic idea is that it is not necessary to transport material constituents (ultimately the elementary particles). The same particles already exist at other places; we “simply” need to put them together in the right way. To do this, we need a complete set of building instructions, and this is, according to quantum theory, the quantum mechanical wave function representing the maximum information known about an object. We could imagine the wave function measured on the original system, then transmitted via a conventional (classical) information channel to another place and there used for system reconstruction. Unfortunately, the first step, the determination of the wave function on a single system , is impossible (see Section 10.3). However, quantum mechanics offers us another “magic trick.”
Quantum entanglement, a term coined by Erwin Schrodinger in 1935, is a mechanical phenomenon at the quantum level wherein the quantum states of two (or more) particles have to be described with reference to each other though these particles may be spatially separated. This phenomenon leads to paradox and has puzzled us for a long time. The behaviour of entangled particles is apparently inexplicable, incomprehensible and like magic at work. Locality has been a reliable and fruitful principle which has guided us to the triumphs of twentieth century physics. But the consequences of the local laws in quantum theory could seem “spooky” and nonlocal, with some theorists questioning locality itself. Could two subatomic particles on opposite sides of the universe be really instantaneously connected? Is any theory which predicts such a connection essentially flawed or incomplete? Are the results of experiments which demonstrate such a connection being misinterpreted? These questions challenge our most basic concepts of spatial distance and time. Modern physics is in the process of dismantling the space all around us and the universe will never be the same. Quantum entanglement involves the utilisation of cutting edge technology and will bring great benefits to society. This paper traces the development of quantum entanglement and presents some possible explanations for the strange behaviour of entangled particles.

Quantum teleportation is one of the most enigmatic protocols realized so far in the area of quantum information, allowing for the transfer of quantum information assisted by an entangled state. It was a subject of science fiction 20 years ago, but now is a fundamental experimental protocol and quantum primitive for quantum information processing tasks. There have been many successful realizations of teleportation ranging from those using photons, atoms, and hybrid systems and long-range teleportation beyond 100km has already been achieved multiple times. These however typically involve explicitly single particle systems or effective few-particle systems. For larger (visible to the naked eye) objects involving many particles, teleportation is typically more difficult due to the fast decoherence such macroscopic objects suffer. In this case, the entanglement disappears almost as soon as it is created, making it useless for such tasks. More recently, teleportation was accomplished in the continuous variables (CV) framework between two atomic ensembles [1]. As remarkable as these achievements are, teleportation schemes that are known today (qubit/CV) do not allow us to teleport more complex quantum states at the macroscopic level. For example, while it is possible in principle to extend teleportation to multiple qubits, on a macroscopic level this is prohibitively complicated and highly susceptible to decoherence. For atomic ensemble CV based schemes, the teleported states are restricted to small displacements from the completely Sx-polarized state on the Bloch sphere.
