The concept of randomness plays an important part in many disciplines. On the one hand, the question of whether random processes exist is fundamental for our understanding of nature. On the other, randomness is a resource for cryptography, algorithms and

demonstrate a novel way to measure a quantum device's accuracy, also known as fidelity. Both researchers work in the laboratory of Manuel Endres, a professor of physics at Caltech and a Rosenberg scholar.
This partly paved the way for the claim of irreducible randomness in quantum mechanics, although the influence of population studies and biology on intrinsic developments in physics should perhaps not be overestimated. However, the insight that probability and statistics gave rise to their own laws (...

in a given time. Thus, quantum mechanics does not specify the outcome of individual experiments but only the probabilities. Hidden variable theories reject the view that nature contains irreducible randomness: such theories posit that in the processes that appear random, properties with a certain ...
The intrinsic random nature of quantum physics offers novel tools for the generation of random numbers, a central challenge for a plethora of fields. Bell non-local correlations obtained by measurements on entangled states allow for the generation of bit strings whose randomness is guaranteed in a...
There’s also quantum physics. We’ve touched on it before on the blog, so you can do more of an in-depth look in the post below. But part of quantum mechanics is subatomic particles whose nature cannot be discerned until it is observed. Until it is observed, it is all possible stat...
