Physicists in Austria and the US have independently demonstrated
quantum teleportation with atoms for the first time. Until now,
teleportation had only ever been observed with photons. The results
could represent a major step towards building a large-scale quantum
computer.

In quantum teleportation, the sender, normally called Alice,
instantaneously transfers information about the quantum state of a
particle to a receiver called Bob. The uncertainty principle means
that Alice cannot know the exact state of her particle. However,
another feature of quantum mechanics called "entanglement" means that
she can teleport the state to Bob.

Entanglement allows particles to have a much closer relationship than
is possible in classical physics. If two particles are entangled, we
can know the state of one particle by measuring the state of the
other. For example, two particles can be entangled such that the spin
of one particle is always "up" when the spin of the other is "down",
and vice versa. An additional feature of quantum mechanics is that the
particle can exist in a superposition of both these states at the same
time.

I wonder about transmutation.

What? Lead into Gold?
