Patrick Knights, Finlay Ryburn, Garry Tungate, Konstantinos Nikolopoulos

摘要:

本文介绍了一个为高等本科生实验室设计的实验,该实验允许学生研究康普顿散射中光子偏振的影响,并探索量子纠缠。量子纠缠光子是通过电子正电子湮没产生的$S$ -状态,并使用康普顿散射截面依赖于光子偏振分析它们的偏振。这个实验所需的设备可以在典型的本科物理实验室获得。有限的几何形状的影响进行了讨论和研究与使用的Geant 4为基础的模拟。

英文摘要:

An experiment for the advanced undergraduate laboratory which allows students to study the effect of photon polarisation in Compton scattering and to explore q\ uantum entanglement is described. The quantum entangled photons are produced through electron-positron annihilation in the $S$-state, and their polarisations a\ re analysed using the Compton scattering cross-section dependence on the photon polarisation. The equipment necessary for this experiment is available at a typ\ ical undergraduate physics laboratory. Finite geometry effects are discussed and investigated with the use of a Geant4-based simulation.
