Passive Quantum Erasure for Neutral Kaons
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quantum marking and quantum erasure are discussed for the neutral kaon system. Contrary to other two–level systems, strangeness and lifetime of a neutral kaon state can be alternatively measured via an “active” or a “passive” procedure. This offers new quantum erasure possibilities. In particular, the operation of a quantum eraser in the “delayed choice” mode is clearly illustrated.

متن کاملQuantum marking and quantum erasure for neutral kaons.
The neutral kaon system is shown to be suitable to discuss extensions and tests of Bohr's complementarity principle through the quantum marking and quantum erasure techniques suggested by Scully and Drühl [Phys. Rev. A 25, 2208 (1982)]]. Strangeness oscillations play the role of the traditional interference pattern linked to wavelike behavior, whereas the different propagation in free space of ...
متن کاملQuantitative Duality and Quantum Erasure for Neutral Kaons
The aim of this contribution is to illustrate two basic aspects of quantum mechanics applied to the neutral kaon system. We first describe a recent quantitative formulation of Bohr’s complementarity principle for free–space evolution of single kaons and entangled kaon pairs. We then show that the neutral kaon system is also suitable for an optimal demonstration of the “quantum eraser”, includin...
متن کاملErasing the Past and Impacting the Future with Kaons at a Phi-Factory
The well known quantum eraser concepts are applied to entangled kaons. Due to different measurement procedures, a specific feature of neutral kaons not shared by other quantum systems, we show that novel options for the quantum eraser phenomena open. Moreover, the proposed kaonic erasers may in future be experimentally demonstrated with the upgraded KLOE detector at the φ –factory.
متن کاملCPT and Quantum Mechanics Tests with Kaons
In this review we first discuss the theoretical motivations for possible CPT violation and deviations from ordinary quantum-mechanical behavior of field-theoretic systems in the context of an extended class of quantumgravity models. Then we proceed to a description of precision tests of CPT symmetry using mainly neutral kaons. We emphasize the possibly unique rôle of neutral meson factories in ...
