Separating Quantum from Classical

November 19, 2008 - 8:30-8:55am

RLE Conference Center 36-428

Abstract

I will discuss various possibilities of distinguishing quantum effects from classical behavior. Static properties, in the form of correlations appearing in Bell-inequalities, will be analysed as well as dynamical features.
