Bringing Schrodinger's cat to life
Article Abstract:
A number of research investigates the quantum-classical changeover, an extension of that conundrum in quantum mechanics called superposition in which a quantum particle occupies two opposing states at the same time. The research aims to determine how quantum mechanics affect classical physics.

Rubbed out with the quantum eraser; making quantum information reappear
Article Abstract:
Quantum information can be recaptured after it has been erased by absorbing the photons that indicate which direction particles went. The atoms of the photons that need to be absorbed are those that disappeared. The excited state of atoms makes such work difficult.

A bus for Scotty
Article Abstract:
IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center researcher Charles H. Bennett believes that quantum particles can be disembodied and recombined, a process similar to teleportation. The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen effect is a key part of quantum teleportation.
