petrushka.googol Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 How many particles can coexist as entangled states ? How many such sets can coexist as a symphony ? Any theories on this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enthalpy Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'd say: no upper limit. And even worse: independent particles are only an approximation necessary to our understanding, but normally they're entangled. In the artificial case of experiments, the goal is usually to get simple situations, which involves reducing the number of entangled particles. I haven't read "symphony" before in this context.

Translation gone inaccurate? Symphony is a metaphor for something of deeper import...i am not sure how the terminology actually works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
