• Title: Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen experiment with two Bose-Einstein condensates
• Authors: Paolo Colciaghi, Yifan Li, Philipp Treutlein, Tilman Zibold
• Abstract summary: Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) conceived a Gedankenexperiment which became a cornerstone of quantum technology and still challenges our understanding of reality and locality today. We observe the EPR paradox in an experiment with two spatially separated Bose-Einstein condensates containing about 700 Rubidium atoms each. Our results show that the conflict between quantum mechanics and local realism does not disappear as the system size is increased to over a thousand massive particles.

• Abstract: In 1935, Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) conceived a Gedankenexperiment which became a cornerstone of quantum technology and still challenges our understanding of reality and locality today. While the experiment has been realized with small quantum systems, a demonstration of the EPR paradox with spatially separated, massive many-particle systems has so far remained elusive. We observe the EPR paradox in an experiment with two spatially separated Bose-Einstein condensates containing about 700 Rubidium atoms each. EPR entanglement in conjunction with individual manipulation of the two condensates on the quantum level, as demonstrated here, constitutes an important resource for quantum metrology and information processing with many-particle systems. Our results show that the conflict between quantum mechanics and local realism does not disappear as the system size is increased to over a thousand massive particles.

• Einstein's 1927 gedanken experiment: how to complete it and measure the collapse time of a spatially spread photon [55.2480439325792]
  Einstein discussed a gedanken experiment involving a single photon diffracted at an aperture and impinging on a screen. He devised the example to support De Broglie's hypothesis of the pilot wave, and his own ideas on the incompleteness of the description of physical reality provided by Quantum Mechanics. Partial realizations of Einstein's example have been performed, but the complete experiment has not been attempted (for good practical reasons) yet.

  We report a novel scheme on the study of decoherence of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state via its second harmonic generation signal. Our scheme can directly extract the decoherence of the phase-sensitive quantum correlation $langle hatahatbrangle$ between two entangled modes. This is an experimental study on the decoherence effect of a squeezed vacuum state, which has been rarely investigated.
