Hello, I am 12 years old in 6th grade and love physics and Quantum Physics, I would love an explanation of Quantum Physics and Topological Quantum Matter.

Good for you! Try using the PF Search feature to find previous discussions about those topics. Just click on the "SEARCH" link at the top of the page and enter some keywords in the Title slot. Try reading through some of the threads you find to see if they help to add to your knowledge (and to your questions!).Arik Salehi said:Hi, Berkeman I have read on wikipedia Quantum mechanics, Quantum entanglement (Which is particularly hard) and have read books on the subject such as The Theoretical Minimum. I would like to research Physics and learn it before high school.
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon in which two or more particles become connected in a way that their states are dependent on each other, even when separated by large distances. This means that changes in one particle will instantaneously affect the other particle, regardless of the distance between them.
Quantum entanglement works by creating a pair of entangled particles, usually through a process called photon emission. Once these particles are entangled, their states are linked, and any change in one particle's state will also change the state of the other particle, no matter how far apart they are.
Quantum entanglement is significant because it challenges our understanding of classical physics and our traditional notions of cause and effect. It also has implications for technologies such as quantum computing and quantum cryptography.
Quantum entanglement has been demonstrated in various experiments, such as the EPR (Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen) experiment and the Bell test experiment. In these experiments, entangled particles are separated and their states are measured, showing a correlation between the two particles' states.
Quantum entanglement has the potential to revolutionize various fields, such as communication, computing, and cryptography. It could also lead to advancements in quantum teleportation and quantum sensing, among others.
