Elitzur–Vaidman bomb tester (en.wikipedia.org)

submitted 1 week ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

10 comments fedilink

The Elitzur–Vaidman bomb-tester is a quantum mechanics thought experiment that uses interaction-free measurements to verify that a bomb is functional without having to detonate it. It was conceived in 1993 by Avshalom Elitzur and Lev Vaidman. Since their publication, real-world experiments have confirmed that their theoretical method works as predicted.
