"Fifteen photon entanglement?"

By the side of the trail.

Hearing the word that came out of Academician Pan's mouth, Xu Yun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he lost his voice in an extremely rare way:

"Director Pan, fifteen photons? Has the technical reserve of Liangxin Laboratory reached this point?"

Photon entanglement is a core index of the basic ability of quantum information processing. The more entangled photons are manipulated, the quantum information processing ability will increase exponentially.

This thing has an academic name called multi-photon entanglement, which involves the concept of quantum teleportation.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand this sentence, there is a more straightforward explanation:

Quantum teleportation can be regarded as an infinite microscopic sci-fi teleportation array.

That's right, it's the kind of teleportation array that draws a circle and you stand inside it, and after a burst of green light, you're transported to another place.

Its principle is to transmit bit information out of thin air to another location through the entanglement relationship of photons in the classical channel—that is, under the premise of conforming to the theory of relativity.

A person or something can be regarded as a macroscopic object composed of countless microscopic particles, so as long as the technology is perfect enough, it is theoretically possible to decompose a person → transport → reassemble.

Of course.

Quantum teleportation can only be said to be the prototype of a teleportation array, and there is still a long way to go before a teleportation array with the ability to teleport macroscopic objects.

12 grams of carbon atoms is 1 mole, that is, 6.023*10^23.

If the weight of a person is 60 kilograms, assuming that all of them are composed of carbon atoms, then there are about 5000 moles of atoms, which is 3*10^27.

Describe the state of an atom in terms of ten degrees of freedom.

Then to describe a person, you need 10^28 degrees of freedom—rare students who don’t understand the concept of degrees of freedom can change this word into money, and now the frontier only has fifteen degrees of freedom. Photon only.

Assuming that the third world war does not happen and the research direction is correct, it may take 800 years for human beings to have a teleportation array that meets the standard cognition.

But in addition to this, there is also a technological singularity theory, which believes that the technological singularity will be reached in 2075. At present, the discussion on this view is very intense and sharp, and Lily's brain is almost out.

At present, the entanglement of five-photon, six-photon, eight-photon and ten-photon is the first completed by Academician Pan's team in the world.

At the same time, it is worth mentioning that photon entanglement is not a so-called "World Champions Cup" of a certain mobile game, which is actually a self-entertaining research that only local people participate in. This project occupies a lot of research resources in various countries and laboratories around the world.

For example, Alexei Kitaev, John Martinis, and Austrian physicist Peter Zoller, winner of the Dirac Prize in 2006, all lead research teams in this area.

Our country calls it the superiority of quantum computing, while Yingjiang calls it quantum supremacy, and the leader is the famous cooing pigeon.

Now that Academician Pan's team is about to launch a fifteen-photon entanglement experiment, how can Xu Yun not be excited?

As a practitioner in the physics industry in his previous life, almost subconsciously, he wanted to agree to Academician Pan's invitation.

But when the words were about to come out, he was stopped abruptly.

There is no other reason, but because I am really not suitable to join this kind of team.

Right now, the technical barrier of the fourth-generation imidacloprid has been broken through, and the finished product of the fifth-generation is just ahead. Whether it is the patent transformation of research results, follow-up papers or even commercial derivatives, I will not allow myself to escape at this time.

Not to mention the mysterious claustrophobic space, Xu Yun had a premonition that the opening of the next dungeon might not be very far away.

Regardless of whether it is the 1665 dungeon or other new time and space that will be opened at that time, as long as Xu Yun completes the relevant tasks, he will definitely get a new reward when he returns.

If he joins Pan Shuai's team by himself, it is almost impossible to get out and go out in the short term, and the follow-up progress may be greatly restrained.

Therefore, after some entanglement in his heart, Xu Yun briefly described the subject he was working on with Academician Pan, and said apologetically:

"Director Pan, I may not be able to join your team this time."

"The fifth-generation imidacloprid is a good research direction."

After hearing Xu Yun's words, Academician Pan nodded slightly, but did not insist too much:

"Since that's the case, I won't force you. Let me let you go for a while. Mr. Tian has taken in a good apprentice."

Tian Zhigang is 66 years old this year, and Academician Pan is born in 70 years, so he can be called Tian Lao.

Then Xu Yun briefly talked with Academician Pan, and the two separated and left.

Seeing Pan Shuai walking in the opposite direction, Xu Yun suddenly had another premonition: in the next long period of time, he might not see Pan Shuai again.

Then Xu Yun calmed down, turned around and continued walking towards the AED in the West District.

AED generally refers to the automatic external defibrillator in Encyclopedia, but on the campus of HKUST, AED refers to the west library area of ​​the HKUST library.

The height of HKUST AED is 12 floors. The exterior of the building is L-shaped, and the entrance is a very beautiful sunshade arch. You can often see a huge fat three-flowered pig named Sanpang around. In addition, HKUST also has Dahua, who can solve Maxwell’s equations, and Dabai, who can push basic elements. It is said that the GPAs of HKUST cats are all above 3.8.

Ahem, let’s get down to business.

The biological materials Xu Yun was looking for were located on the first and eleventh floors. After swiping the card, he first checked the books on the first floor.

The location of biological journals and physical materials are located on two adjacent bookshelves. When Xu Yun came here, there were two girls standing shoulder to shoulder in front of the physical bookshelf, looking for some materials.

The two girls looked like roommates or classmates, and they should have a good relationship. After seeing Xu Yun appearing, they just glanced at them and continued to look for the books they needed.

Xu Yun naturally didn't have any idea about the two alumni who were completely strangers, so he started looking for books one by one from the left side of the bookshelf.

"Insect protein-specific binding receptors."

Although there are electronic devices that can be searched directly, Xu Yun still likes the feeling of holding a card and shaking it like a fan, looking for books row by row.

It’s not that he’s really hot, the wind blown by the card is actually that. He just likes to play with it in his hand, just like some people like to switch their mobile phones.

The two girls read the books from left to right, while Xu Yun looked from right to left, so soon, the two girls approached back to back in the middle.

At this time, the library was very quiet, and I don't know if it was because I was bored looking for books. One of the girls' voices was not particularly low, and it was clearly heard in Xu Yun's ears:

"Ningning, it's too hard to find books describing Newton's life. This row used to be all theoretical books."

Xu Yun is not the kind of person who likes to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, but the word Newton in the girl's mouth subconsciously reminded him of the Maverick who loves to convince others in the dungeon.

So his ears perked up immediately, and he turned his attention to the next door.

Facing her companion's complaints, another taller girl smiled:

"Ah, ah, ah, Yueyue, please stay with me for a while, and I will treat you to a drink of Michelle Ice City later."

'Yueyue' heard the words and sighed, then rubbed her hands resignedly:

"Hey, alright, alright, I'll search for it with you again. By the way, why are you so interested in Lord Niu's life? You don't really believe that pair of Antas are a product of the same generation as Mr. Niu, do you? Professor Lu Didn’t it all be said in the group yesterday, it’s just a trick made with substances similar to transition state esters of six-membered rings, purely to ridicule some people.”

"I just want to find some information and confirm it. After all, it's a coincidence, isn't it?"

For some reason, when Xu Yun heard these words, Xu Yun, who had his back to the two, seemed to see the tall girl with a soft tone but a firm expression in his mind:

"Yueyue, isn't it recorded in history that Yang Hui's triangle was taken to England by an oriental businessman, and it happened to fall into Newton's hands, otherwise Yang Hui's triangle should be called Pascal's triangle in the world now, because of Newton Endorsement, this triangle will be named after the Chinese people."

Pat——

A crisp sound of a book falling to the ground suddenly interrupted the conversation between the girl and her companion.

Fortunately, the location of this bookshelf is relatively remote, but it did not attract the attention of other people in the library.

A moment later, a suspicious male voice came from behind:

"Student, excuse me, what triangle did you just say?"
