Thinking Beyond - What happens when a quantum measurement is made?

Professor Jordan will cover some of the history and important recent discoveries in quantum physics, focusing on the theme of quantum measurement. Topics such as measurement reversal, entanglement by measurement, and how a quantum measurement can be continuous will be covered at an accessible level. The talk is reflective of his forthcoming book, Quantum Measurement: Theory and Practice, which he has written with his co-author, Irfan Siddiqi (University of California, Berkeley).
