Quantum contextuality
Quantum contextuality is a feature of the phenomenology of quantum mechanics whereby measurements of quantum observables cannot simply be thought of as revealing pre-existing values. Any attempt to do so in a realistic hidden-variable theory leads to values that are dependent upon the choice of the other (compatible) observables which are simultaneously measured (the measurement context). More formally, the measurement result (assumed pre-existing) of a quantum observable is dependent upon which other commuting observables are within the same measurement set.
Quantum correlation
In quantum mechanics, quantum correlation is the expected value of the product of the alternative outcomes. In other words, it is the expected change in physical characteristics as one quantum system passes through an interaction site. In John Bell's 1964 paper that inspired the Bell test, it was assumed that the outcomes A and B could each only take one of two values, -1 or +1. It followed that the product, too, could only be -1 or +1, so that the average value of the product would be where, for example, N++ is the number of simultaneous instances ("coincidences") of the outcome +1 on both sides of the experiment.
Louis de Broglie
Louis Victor de Broglie, prince, puis duc de Broglie (prononcé de Breuil ), né le à Dieppe et mort le à Louveciennes, est un mathématicien et physicien français. À seulement , il devient lauréat du prix Nobel de physique de 1929 , qui a révolutionné la physique en généralisant à toute la matière la dualité onde-corpuscule proposée par Einstein pour la lumière. Louis de Broglie, fils de Victor de Broglie (1846-1906), duc de Broglie, et de son épouse, Pauline de La Forest d'Armaillé, est issu de la maison de Broglie.
Expérience d'Aspect
En mécanique quantique, l'expérience d'Aspect est la première expérience montrant la violation des inégalités de Bell, établissant un résultat irréfutable en vue de la validation du phénomène d'intrication quantique et des hypothèses de non-localité. Elle apporte ainsi une réponse expérimentale au paradoxe EPR proposé une cinquantaine d'années plus tôt par Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky et Nathan Rosen. Cette expérience a été réalisée par le physicien français Alain Aspect à l'Institut d'Optique à Orsay entre 1980 et 1982.
Hydrodynamic quantum analogs
In physics, the hydrodynamic quantum analogs refer to experimentally-observed phenomena involving bouncing fluid droplets over a vibrating fluid bath that behave analogously to several quantum-mechanical systems. A droplet can be made to bounce indefinitely in a stationary position on a vibrating fluid surface. This is possible due to a pervading air layer that prevents the drop from coalescing into the bath.
Quantum foundations
Quantum foundations is a discipline of science that seeks to understand the most counter-intuitive aspects of quantum theory, reformulate it and even propose new generalizations thereof. Contrary to other physical theories, such as general relativity, the defining axioms of quantum theory are quite ad hoc, with no obvious physical intuition. While they lead to the right experimental predictions, they do not come with a mental picture of the world where they fit.
