On Interchangeability of Probe-Object Roles in Quantum-Quantum Interaction-Free Measurement

2019

In this paper we examine Interaction-free measurement (IFM) where both the probe and the object are quantum particles. We argue that in this case the description of the measurement procedure must by symmetrical with respect to interchange of the roles of probe and object. A thought experiment is being suggested that helps to determine what does and what doesn't happen to the state of the particles in such a setup. It seems that unlike the case of classical object, here the state of both the probe and the object must change. A possible explanation of this might be that the probe and the object form an entangled pair as a result of non-interaction.

Relating quantum incoherence, entanglement and superluminal signalling

2020

Hereby we inspect two-partite entanglement using thought experiment that relates properties of incoherently mixed states to the impossibility of faster-than-light (FTL) signalling. We show that if there appears a way to distinguish ensembles of particles that are described by the same density matrix, but are generated using different pure states - properties of entanglement (namely, non-classical correlations) could be employed to create an FTL signalling device. We do not claim FTL signalling is possible, rather, we establish the logical connection between the aforementioned properties of current physical theory which has not so far been evident.
