Quantum Teleportation Becomes Reality on Active Internet Cables

2024-12-24 at 8:09 PM UTCQuantum Entanglement is bullshit and here's why. There is no "spooky action at a distance" and no evidence to support such things, there is no distance and string theory is correct but only in the sense that these entangled particles are connected by very long strings and not some magic invisible force.
If you vibrate an entangled particle the vibration will travel through the string like a tomato soup phone to the other particle and it vibrate in the same way, because they are attached by a long string.
Proof: the only way this would work is if the above statement is trueThe ability for quantum and conventional networks to operate in the same optical fibers would aid the deployment of
quantum network technology on a large scale. Quantum teleportation is a fundamental operation in quantum network-
ing, but has yet to be demonstrated in fibers populated with high-power conventional optical signals. Here we report, to
the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of quantum teleportation over fibers carrying conventional telecom-
munications traffic. Quantum state transfer is achieved over a 30.2-km fiber carrying 400-Gbps C-band classical traffic
with a Bell state measurement performed at the fiber’s midpoint. To protect quantum fidelity from spontaneous Raman
scattering noise, we use optimal O-band quantum channels, narrow spectro-temporal enhancementing, and multi-photon
coincidence detection. Fidelity is shown to be well maintained with an elevated C-band launch power of 18.7 dBm for
the single-channel 400-Gbps signal, which we project could support multiple classical channels totaling many terabits/s
aggregate data rates. These results show the feasibility of advanced quantum and classical network applications operat-
ing within a unified fiber infrastructure.

https://opg.optica.org/optica/fulltext.cfm?uri=optica-11-12-1700&id=565936Researchers at Northwestern University have achieved a significant milestone by successfully demonstrating quantum teleportation using a fiber optic cable that also carries regular Internet traffic.
This innovation simplifies the potential integration of quantum and classical communications, offering a path toward shared infrastructure. The experiment proved that quantum information could be transmitted alongside conventional data without interference, promising more efficient and secure communication technologies.
Breakthrough in Quantum Teleportation
Northwestern University engineers have achieved a groundbreaking milestone by successfully demonstrating quantum teleportation over a fiber optic cable already transmitting regular Internet traffic.
This breakthrough suggests that quantum communication could be integrated with existing Internet infrastructure, eliminating the need for dedicated networks and simplifying the technology required for quantum computing and sensing applications.
The team’s findings will be published today (December 20) in the journal Optica.
“This is incredibly exciting because nobody thought it was possible,” said Northwestern’s Prem Kumar, who led the study. “Our work shows a path towards next-generation quantum and classical networks sharing a unified fiber optic infrastructure. Basically, it opens the door to pushing quantum communications to the next level.”
An expert in quantum communication, Kumar is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Northwestern’s McCormick School of Engineering, where he directs the Center for Photonic Communication and Computing.
The Mechanics of Quantum Teleportation
Only limited by the speed of light, quantum teleportation could make communications nearly instantaneous. The process works by harnessing quantum entanglement, a technique in which two particles are linked, regardless of the distance between them. Instead of particles physically traveling to deliver information, entangled particles exchange information over great distances — without physically carrying it.
“In optical communications, all signals are converted to light,” Kumar explained. “While conventional signals for classical communications typically comprise millions of particles of light, quantum information uses single photons.”
Innovations in Photon Management
Before Kumar’s new study, conventional wisdom suggested that individual photons would drown in cables filled with the millions of light particles carrying classical communications. It would be like a flimsy bicycle trying to navigate through a crowded tunnel of speeding heavy-duty trucks.
Kumar and his team, however, found a way to help the delicate photons steer clear of the busy traffic. After conducting in-depth studies of how light scatters within fiber optic cables, the researchers found a less crowded wavelength of light to place their photons. Then, they added special enhancements to reduce noise from regular Internet traffic.
“We carefully studied how light is scattered and placed our photons at a judicial point where that scattering mechanism is minimized,” Kumar said. “We found we could perform quantum communication without interference from the classical channels that are simultaneously present.”
Future Prospects and Expanding the Experiment
To test the new method, Kumar and his team set up a 30-kilometer-long fiber optic cable with a photon at either end. Then, they simultaneously sent quantum information and regular Internet traffic through it. Finally, they measured the quality of the quantum information at the receiving end while executing the teleportation protocol by making quantum measurements at the mid-point. The researchers found the quantum information was successfully transmitted — even with busy Internet traffic whizzing by.
Next, Kumar plans to extend the experiments over longer distances. He also plans to use two pairs of entangled photons — rather than one pair — to demonstrate entanglement swapping, another important milestone leading to distributed quantum applications. Finally, his team is exploring the possibility of carrying out experiments over real-world inground optical cables rather than on spools in the lab. But, even with more work to do, Kumar is optimistic.
“Quantum teleportation has the ability to provide quantum connectivity securely between geographically distant nodes,” Kumar said. “But many people have long assumed that nobody would build specialized infrastructure to send particles of light. If we choose the wavelengths properly, we won’t have to build new infrastructure. Classical communications and quantum communications can coexist.”

99% of string theory is wrong. The universe is not made up of vibrating strings, or maybe it is, idk. But entangled particles are definitely vibrating strings. It's the only thing that makes sense
Ignore all the multidimensional math and 12 types of gravity -
2024-12-24 at 9:30 PM UTCWhen you spin a particle in this dimension, its sister "anti-particle" in the other dimension spins in the other direction, with ZERO time elapsed during the communication. So if left spin is 1 and right spin is 0, then binary communication is possible, with zero elapsed time involved.

What about the brother particles? -
2024-12-24 at 9:54 PM UTCThe problem is that if you observe the functioning communication between the two dimensions in any way shape or form, the wave form collapses and the anti-particle disappears and communication is no longer possible. The two particles can only communicate if the properties created by the anti-particle are unobserved.

2024-12-24 at 10 PM UTCThe question becomes: how do you observe something that is there, but refuses to be observed.

2024-12-24 at 11:31 PM UTCThe only way would be to let the communication between the particle and the dual-particle take place independently of observation. Just let the machinery do the work, if you will, free of human intervention or attention.

But what if you had magic spectacles like Joseph Smith? -

I don't know about that extra dimension shit but I do that singular real dimensional entangled particles behave the same way and that this behavior can only be explained by the particles being connected.
So if that action happens anywhere it's because they are connected. Nothing magic about it.
The real spooky scary science is why does it collapse when observed. My guess is it has something to do with breaking the string and observing it is not actually observing it but breaking the string so they fly off.
This can be proven through methodology similar to the bell test or the paper linked in my OP -
2024-12-24 at 11:44 PM UTCThe dualic particle is in another dimension. That's how the elapsed time over the signal is zero. You are defeating distance altogether, because there is no distance between a particle in this dimension and its dual particle in the other dimension. The signal is in sync, even though the particles are not existing in the same time frame.

Source? There is clearly physical distance in this dimension at least. but because the particles are connected, when the string is broken they react faster than the speed of light because you're breaking the connection.
Nothing has to be transmitted magically through dimensions for this to occur. -

If both particles were in the same dimension, then distance and time would have to be involved, but with quantum entanglement, it's instant, with zero time elapsed. You're not communicating between Point A and Point B in this dimension. You are communicating between Point A and Point B in an alternate reality. That's why time and space doesn't apply. -
2024-12-25 at 2:21 AM UTCI think it makes more sense if it all happens in one dimension

2024-12-25 at 2:25 AM UTCYou can't have genuine duality on a single plane. No two things on the same plane are exactly alike, no matter how similar they appear. But in a multi-universe, you can have genuinely identical particles existing across multiple planes. It's the duality which powers the thing.
-
2024-12-25 at 2:33 AM UTCIt ties into the wave function, too, because when the particle is observed, the "anti-particle" is UNobserved. Anything you subject the particle to, the reverse is done to the "anti-particle". That's why the wave form breaks down when particle B is observed, not because you are observing the anti-particle, but because you are observing Particle A, therefore the anti-particle is forced to become unobserved. Same way, if you observe Particle B, Particle A will disappear.
