  1. Entanglement and Memory-Force Bound States Beyond Bell Pairing in Continuous Information Spaces

  2. Introduction • Continuous degrees of freedom have the potential for • massive information capacity. • Instances exist within current experimental control. • There is no easy method to analyze • quantum information in a continuum • so surprises are possible!

  3. The Schmidt theorem -> information eigenmodes, naturally discrete and unique. The “participation ratio” K counts modes that will be effective beyond Bell-pair status. Theory is in hand for broadband bi-photon entanglement (PRL, Law-Walmsley-Eberly). K ≤ 5 in a normal BBO chi-2 setup. Lab advances by the Walmsley group have been reported.

  4. Desirable “cross-modular’’ continua are engaged in experiments on entanglement of photons with atomic center of mass, as reported by Pfau, et al., Chapman, et al., and Kurtsiefer, et al. (1994-1997). One entangled partner is detectable with nearly 100% efficiency (the atom) and the other (the photon) is an ideally high-speed information carrier.

  5. A generic continuum-entangling experiment: The resulting photon-atom state amplitude:

  6. Beyond Bell pairing, with the Schmidt decomposition: Eigenvalues determine the participation ratio: A new control parameter for entanglement:

  7. Meaning of K K = 1, no entanglement. K = 2, Bell states. K = 5, beyond Bell, more information. K = 10, still more info. Quantum info is always discrete and countable.

  8. Surprising result beyond Bell pairing: the quantum Memory Force. MF exists between the atom and the photon in the absence of any classically describable force. The Exchange Force of Pauli is a special case. EF applies only to pairs of identical particles. MF can apply to any pair of quantum systems, (whether individual particles or not).

  9. Atom-photon entanglement and joint detection, a la Kurtsiefer, et al. (1997)

  10. Beyond Bell pairing: Information eigenmodes are determined by the atom-photon quantum memory. The first 4 MF bound states are shown here. (PRL, Chan-Law-Eberly).

  11. First steps to treat 2-d info content are now underway. Angular analysis of bi-photon beyond-Bell pairs shows a wealth of quantum patterns to exploit.

  12. Prospects / Vision for QI Theory . • Explore and exploit quantum MF • Cross-platform instances, beyond-Bell pairing • electron-photon Schmidt modes, • quantum soliton pairs / optical fiber • phased arrays / large particle number • Retain focus on high-dimensional contexts
