Quantum Physics
quantum-entanglement
A physical phenomenon occurring when pairs or groups of particles interact in such a way that the quantum state of each particle cannot be described independently.
Expanded definition
Quantum entanglement is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics where two or more particles become interconnected in such a manner that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other, regardless of the distance separating them. This phenomenon has profound implications for quantum computing, cryptography, and information transfer, as it challenges conventional notions of locality and independence in physics.
