Physicists measure the W state of three entangled photons

Original: Physicists measure the W state of three quantum-entangled photons — ScienceAlert

Physicists have reported measuring the W state of three quantum-entangled photons, a milestone in quantum optics. The W state is a form of multi-particle entanglement in which information is distributed across three photons, useful for testing quantum foundations and building quantum technologies such as secure communication and photonic computing. Researchers say the measurement demonstrates precise control over three-particle entanglement in the lab, advancing work toward practical quantum networks.

Why now: News of an experimental advance in quantum entanglement measurement is drawing attention from the science community and enthusiasts.
