Delayed-Choice Eraser on a Quantum Computer - Quantum Paradoxes Episode 6

Qiskit via YouTube

Overview

Explore a fascinating 14-minute video lecture where Oxford PhD researcher Maria Violaris demystifies the delayed-choice eraser quantum paradox and demonstrates its implementation on a quantum computer. Delve into the apparent dilemma where present choices about erasing particle information seem to influence past behavior, and discover how quantum entanglement, rather than backwards-in-time causation, explains this phenomenon. Learn to execute this thought experiment using Qiskit, with access to complete code implementation through a provided Jupyter notebook. Build upon knowledge from previous discussions of the double-slit experiment while exploring quantum mechanics fundamentals. Perfect for those interested in quantum computing, with additional resources available through the Understanding Quantum Information and Computation lecture series for beginners seeking to strengthen their understanding of qubits and quantum circuits.
