TELEPORTATION - PART 3

SCIENTIFIC CONSIDERATIONS

Reiteration: It is accepted that the teleportation process allows you to inject quantum energy at one point in the Universe and then exploit quantum energy fluctuations to extract it from another point (thanks to entanglement and to the quantum Non-locality) and this is a tremendous potential.

Recently, physicists have discovered how to Teleport Energy. First, they succeed in teleporting photons; then, atoms and ions. Now, one physicist has worked out on how to do it with energy: a technique that has profound implications for the future of physics.

In 1993, Charlie Bennett and some colleagues at IBM's Watson Research Center in New York showed how to transmit quantum information from one point in space to another without traversing the intervening space.

The technique relies on the strange quantum phenomenon called entanglement, in which two particles share the same existence. This deep connection means that a measurement on one particle immediately influences the other, even though they are light-years apart. Bennett and company worked out on how to exploit this to send information. The influence between the particles may be immediate, but the process does not violate relativity because some information is sent at the speed of light. They called it, the teleportation technique.

That's not really an overstatement of its potential. Since quantum particles are indistinguishable but for the information they carry, there is no need to transmit them themselves. A much simpler idea is to send the information they contain instead, and ensure that there is a ready supply of particles at the other end to take on their identity (a way to imply the unitary diversity of the quantum). Since then, physicists have used these ideas to actually teleport photons, atoms, and ions. And it's not too hard to imagine that molecules and even viruses could be teleported in the not-too-distant future.

Masahiro Hotta from Tohoku University in Japan has come up with a much more exotic idea. Isn’t it a good idea to use the same quantum principles to teleport energy?  (Edited in gray)

Today building on a number of papers published recently, Hotta outlines his idea and its implications. The process of teleportation involves making measurements on each (and every entangled quantum that appears as a) pair of particles (unitary quantum diversity; non-locality principle). He points out that the measurement on the first particle (quantum in one location) injects quantum energy into the system; then he shows that by carefully choosing the measurement to do on the second particle (quantum in other location), it is possible to extract the original energy. Mr. Hotta fundamentally refers to one quantum in two (or various) distant locations practically at the same time.

All this is possible because there are always quantum fluctuations in the energy of any particle. The teleportation process allows you to inject quantum energy at one point in the Universe and then exploit quantum energy fluctuations to extract it from another point (thanks to entanglement and to the quantum Non-locality). Of course, the energy of the system as a whole does not change.

Hotta gives the example of a string of entangled ions oscillating back and forth in an electric field trap, a bit like Newton's balls. Measuring the state of the first ion injects energy into the system in the form of a photon (light oscillating quantum). He says that performing the right kind of measurement on the last ion (of the entanglement) the energy is extracted. Since this can be done at the speed of light (in principle), the photon doesn't travel across the intermediate ions so there is no heating of these ions. The energy has been transmitted without traveling across the intervening space (tunnel effect?).

Remark:

This could be in bulk the teleportation process: [annihilation of particles entering into an “out of phase” state that become "pure energy" in the form of "photons"] - [Transport of quantum fluctuations of energy through the quantum entanglement of the ions, a kind of snapshot of the light refraction, i.e. the transmitted energy without traveling throughout the intervening space avoiding overheating of ions] - and then [the reverse process "creation of matter” from light quantum].
