Aussie teleportation breakthrough - Club CDFreaks

**ChickenMan** · 21-08-2004

A slightly oldish actical but I think worth reading.

Superfast computers, unbreakable codes and completely secure communications are a step closer, with Australian scientists demonstrating how to teleport data to multiple receivers.

This follows the major breakthrough two years ago when members of the Australian National University (ANU) Quantum Optics Group demonstrated teleportation of a laser beam between two points.

In a new world first for the rarefied field of quantum physics, they have now proven they can teleport a laser to three recipients.

But the information is only recoverable if any two of the recipients collaborate, in what's called quantum secret sharing.

Group leader Dr Ping Koy Lam said it would be expected that each of three recipients would gain one third of the information. But in quantum physics, that's not what happens.

Rather, each has nothing. But by combining their efforts - in this case their laser beams - any two can recover all the information.

I hope this will never be used as a weapon in the aussie-borg conspiracy!

My thoughts exactly

I read a similar article on this type of area a while ago. Fantasic possiblities but so far over my head at the moment.

*Shrugs* Faster than light communications.... who cares? Who's so far away that good ole radio beams aren't fast enough?

What they are really upto is figuring out how to send one person to 3 places so they can simultanesouly convert 3 people into aussie borgs. Woot 3x faster! Bwuhahahahahaha!

You will be "throwing a shrimp on the Barbie" 3x faster than before.
Bwuhahahahaha!

...

Reminds me to the book "Timeline" (Michael Crichton) - great stuff and very well researched. For sure it was a hard task to pack a Quantum physics based adventure into a believable storyline. Coool stuff!

Anyone seen the movie "The Fly"?

That old one with Jeff Goldblum? - yep!

*debro* · 24-08-2004

Of course

That goes way back before Independence day...... which is now verging on 10yrs

old?

Independence Day? - yep, another "Goldblum the hero" production infecting an alien spaceship with an earthly (technology) virus! Yes, “far more advanced” aliens but their spaceship’s software seems Windows based (or so), cough…

Nice visual effects for the time being but the storyline is unprofessional kitsch
