Scientists Research Black Holes In A Bid To Build Quantum Teleporter

A functional wormhole that could connect two points in space has been under development, according to a team of physicists.

A functional wormhole that could connect two points in space has been under development, according to a team of physicists. In order to achieve their goal, they will need two quantum entangled black holes.

Nothing can escape from a black hole’s enormous gravitational pull.

As we may be told by traditional wisdom that nothing can escape from a black hole’s enormous gravitational pull. However, recent theoretical research shows that two fully-entangled black holes will potentially transmit quantum information between them instead of destroying it.

Quanta Magazine also added that the transmission will be successful after the information passes one hole’s event horizon. 

In that case, a phenomenon would be created by the black holes namely quantum teleportation, which is exploited when engineers are building quantum computers. Although the physics of this phenomenon seems impossibly dense, it basically involves the transmission of encrypted information between two machines. 

In the past, people held the belief in their mind that creating and linking actual black holes in a laboratory would be seen in sci-fi only. However, researchers from the Univerisity of Maryland - Christopher Monroe and Brian Swingle - said to Quanta that they thought quantum circuitry that would present entangled black holes could be built in their lab.

If the system works, quantum information would be able to be entered into one black hole circuit.

As reported by Quanta, the researchers’ earlier models showed that the circuitry would behave precisely how a teeny-tiny black hole might. Therefore, the resulting system is not only trying to generate a black hole’s activity but to make it indistinguishable from the real thing as well. 

If the system works, quantum information would be able to be entered into one black hole circuit, which then would be scrambled and consumed. Soon after that, that information would show up at the second circuit, already unscrambled and decrypted.

That is the feature that makes it different from available quantum teleportation techniques, according to Quanta - because transferred information emerges in a scrambled shape and needs decrypting, which makes the process longer and less accurate due to the attempt to recreate the original message of an error-prone quantum computer
