All three of the experiments measured violations of Bell’s inequality, which places a limit on the correlations that can be observed in a classical system. Such violations are an important prediction of quantum theory. The first experiment was done in 1972 at the University of California at Berkeley by Clauser, who measured the correlations between...
The locality loophole was closed in 1998 by Zeilinger and colleagues at the University of Innsbruck in Austria. They used two fully independent quantum random-number generators to set the directions of the photon measurements. As a result, the direction along which the polarization of each photon was measured was decided at the last instant, such t...
Sheila Rowan, president of the Institute of Physics, which publishes Physics World, congratulated the trio on their “well-deserved” recognition. “This is an area of physics with ongoing, profound impact, at a fundamental level to help understand the world around us and being explored for use in highly novel technologies for sensing and communicatio...
Aspect was born in Agen, France, on 15 June 1947. He passed the “agrégation” – the national French exam – in physics in 1969 and received his Master’s degree from the Université d’Orsay two years later. He then embarked on a PhD at Orsay, working on experimental tests of Bell’s inequalities, which he completed in 1983. Following a lectureship at th...
