Scientists demonstrate quantum teleportation with atoms

A Laboratory researcher collaborating with researchers at the University of Innsbruck in Austria, recently demonstrated the first teleportation of a quantum state from one trapped atom to another located 8 microns -- slightly less than a thousandth of an inch -- away. This is the first time quantum teleportation has been achieved with actual particles (as opposed to beams of light), and the first time it has been demonstrated in an entirely deliberate and controllable manner.
