Kellerer 2014 量子望远镜
主要内容:
有人想做量子望远镜了,就是接收的地方考虑光子的量子效应。
精彩摘抄:
他说克隆一些光子就可以增加角分辨率了(我表示怀疑),如果这样,以后就不用做大望远镜了,只用拼命地克隆就可以了? |

Quantum telescopes
(Submitted on 26 Mar 2014)
In the 20th century, quantum mechanics connected the particle and wave concepts of light and thereby made mechanisms accessible that had never been imagined before. Processes such as stimulated emission and quantum entanglement have revolutionized modern technology. But even though astronomical observations rely on novel technologies, the optical layout of telescopes has fundamentally remained unchanged. While there is no doubt that Huyghens and Newton would be astounded by the size of our modern telescopes, they would nevertheless understand their optical design. The time may now have come to consider quantum telescopes, that make use of the fundamental scientific changes brought along by quantum mechanics. While one aim is to entertain our reader, our main purpose is to explore the possible future evolution of telescopes.
