Quantum Entanglement has rapidly become a subject of great interest in academia, industry, and government research institutions. This book builds on the first edition of Fundamentals of Quantum Entanglement to provide a transparent and more insightful introduction for graduate students, scientists, and engineers. It is also a highly useful education tool for those practitioners that were not aware of the physical origin of quantum entanglement: the Dirac-Wheeler-Pryce-Ward physics. The new edition includes an expansion on topics such as quantum entropy and quantum time. The book provides a direct, practical, and transparent introduction to the principles and physics of quantum entanglement. It does so whilst utilizing an interferometric approach based on Dirac-Feynman superposition probability amplitudes.
Key Features:
- Provides an overview of quantum entanglement at a basic level
- Explains the philosophical origin of quantum entanglement as well as the physical origin
- Presents the key equation for the probability amplitude for QE from three perspectives while emphasizing its interferometric derivation
- Includes applications on Quantum Cryptography, Quantum Teleportation, Quantum Computing
- Reviews the current technology of QE with an emphasis in space-to-space communications
