Special events
? Fresh Films will host Yassir Lester, creator and head writer for "Armor Wars," an upcoming series based on the Marvel Comics storyline of the same name coming to Disney+. Join in at 6 p.m. via Zoom.
? "A Demonstration of Quantum Entanglement for Introductory Physics Students," presented by Dr. Cecilia Vogel and Dr. James van Howe at the Hanson laser lab from 2:30-3:45 p.m.
Space is limited and RSVPs are requested.
Description: Come to the laser lab and see the experiment that Einstein was wrong about! Einstein called quantum entanglement "spooky action at a distance," and thought that experiments would prove it false. Instead, experiments like this one reinforced that quantum mechanics was indeed right.
We have developed a demonstration of quantum entanglement appropriate for presentation to introductory physics students. Quantum entanglement means a non-classical correlation between the states of separated particles. In our demonstration, two photons are produced by a beta barium borate crystal, and the polarization states of these photons are random, but completely correlated.
Our demonstration begins with a lesson on classical polarization (as one might see in polarizing sunglasses), and then demonstrates the surprising difference in polarization behavior for quantum entangled photons. The polarization states of the two entangled photons are random, like the flipping of two coins, but imagine if the two coins always landed both heads or both tails, never one of each. That is the behavior of the entangled photons - random polarizations, but always the same!
