A Proposed Experiment on Consciousness‐Related Quantum Teleportation

Boris Kožnjak

Published Mar 1, 2003• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The existence of nonlocal Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations between pairs of human brains has been indicated in Grinberg-Zylberbaum et al. experiments (GZEs) and several other subsequent experiments. In this paper a modification of GZEs is proposed and discussed by means of a simple model. The proposed experiment, inspired by the famous Innsbruck experiment on quantum teleportation performed by Zeilinger et al., is as a sort of consciousness-related quantum teleportation, and it involves three subjects in the entanglement scheme of the Innsbruck experiment. The proposed experiment is believed to be not only an improvement of the original GZEs but also the core of new types of experiments and investigations of the foundations of quantum mechanical consciousness.

Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen correlations, quantum teleportation, entanglement swapping, and special relativity

Luiz Carlos Ryff

It is shown that quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping can be easily derived from Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations and special relativity. This raises the question of what is really teleported in a teleportation experiment. It is also shown that the behavior of two photons that arrive together at a beam splitter can be seen as a particular case of a nonlocal effect in which they arrive ``together'' at two different beam splitters.

Quantum teleportation with a complete Bell state measurement

Yoon-Ho Kim, S. P. Kulik, Yanhua H. Shih

Summary form only given. The idea of quantum teleportation is to utilize the nonlocal correlations between an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen pair of particles to prepare a quantum system in some state, which is the exact replica of an arbitrary unknown state of a distant individual system. Three experiments in this direction were published recently. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate a quantum teleportation scheme which satisfies all four of the above conditions. The input state is an arbitrary polarization state and the BSM can distinguish all four orthogonal Bell states so that the state has a 100% certainty to be teleported in principle. This is because the BSM is based on nonlinear interactions which are necessary and non-trivial physical processes for correlating the input state and the entangled EPR pair.

The Einstein‐Podolsky‐Rosen Paradox in the Brain: The Transferred Potential

J. Grinberg‐Zylberbaum, Manuel Delaflor, Leah Bella Attie +1 more

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlations between human brains are studied to verify if the brain has a macroscopic quantum component. Pairs of subjects were allowed to interact and were then separated inside semisilent Faraday chambers 14.5 m apart when their EEG activity was registered. Only one subject of each pair was stimulated by lOO flashes. When the stimulated subject showed distinct evoked potentials, the nonstimulated subject showed similar to those evoked in the stimulated subject. Control subjects showed no such transferred potentials. The transferred potentials demonstrate brain-to-brain nonlocal EPR correlation between brains, supporting the brain's quantum nature at the macrolevel.

Teleportation: who was first?

F. De Martini

The article on quantum teleportation (January p5), which said that this phenomenon had been demonstrated for the first time by a group from the University of Innsbruck, is not quite correct. The first successful quantum teleportation experiment was in fact performed by our group in Rome. Our paper, "Experimental realisation of teleporting an unknown pure quantum state via dual classical and Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen channels" (D Boschi et al. 1998 Phys. Rev. Iett. 80 1121), was submitted in July of last year and published last month. The teleportation paper by the Innsbruck group, led by Anton Zeilinger, was submitted on 16 October of last year and published in December (Bouwmeester et al. 1997 Nature390 575).

Quantum Entanglement: Fundamentals and Relations with Consciousness/Mind

Mustafa Erol

The “spooky action at a distance” and consequently quantum entanglement of physical systems/particles has been debated ever since the famous paper of Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen-EPR Paradox (Einstein et al., 1935). In spite of being considered of highly controversial, there has been a considerable amount of work so far addressing the issue and many scientifically successful experiments were recently carried out proving that the entanglement is a physical reality (Horodecki et al., 2009). The influence of quantum mechanics and entanglement has been far from the imagination of most scientists, eventually reaching to the ultimate concept of consciousness/mind. The entanglement theory, its connection to the consciousness/mind and finally the entanglement theory of consciousness/mind therefore demands pure scientific interest. In order to maintain the requirements, the present work firstly summarizes the quantum entanglement theory together with its relations with Bell’s inequality and finally describes an “entanglement model of consciousness/mind”.

Quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping viewed from different moving frames

Luiz Carlos Ryff

It is shown that quantum teleportation and entanglement swapping can be easily derived from Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen correlations and special relativity (SR). A recent proposal of entanglement swapping via delayed-choice experiment is discussed by means of a concrete example. Experiments in decoherence in high-Q cavities are briefly examined from the point of view of SR. It is argued that although decoherence can explain why we never see a Schrödinger ‘cat’ which is dead and alive at the same time, this approach apparently does little to explain the cat's ‘real’ state.
