Exploring EPR Paradox: Recent Experiments & Discoveries in Last 10 Years

In summary, the EPR paradox is a thought experiment proposed by Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathan Rosen in 1935 to challenge the principles of quantum mechanics. Recent experiments have used advanced technology to test the principles of EPR paradox in various fields such as quantum computing, communication, and teleportation. In the last 10 years, scientists have made major discoveries such as the violation of Bell's inequalities and the use of quantum entanglement for secure communication and teleportation. These findings have challenged our understanding of quantum mechanics and have potential applications in secure communication, computing, and teleportation in the future.

Sure, there have been several recent experiments and discoveries related to the EPR paradox in the last 10 years. Here are a few examples:

1. As you mentioned, physicist Alain Aspect conducted a groundbreaking experiment in 2015 that provided strong evidence for the reality of quantum entanglement and the non-local nature of the EPR paradox.

2. In 2017, a team of researchers at the University of Vienna conducted an experiment that showed the violation of Bell's inequality, which is a key aspect of the EPR paradox. This experiment involved entangling photons and measuring their polarization states.

3. Another experiment in 2018, conducted by a team at the University of Science and Technology of China, involved entangling two atomic clocks and measuring their timekeeping accuracy. This experiment provided evidence for the non-local nature of the EPR paradox in the realm of timekeeping.

4. In 2019, researchers at the University of Oxford conducted an experiment involving entangling two diamonds at room temperature. This experiment showed that entanglement can occur at larger scales and higher temperatures than previously thought, which has implications for the understanding of the EPR paradox.

These are just a few examples, but there have been many other experiments and discoveries related to the EPR paradox in the last 10 years. I suggest checking out scientific journals and websites, such as Nature, Science, and Physics World, for more information and updates on this topic.
