Sep 28, 2016 at 5:53 comment added user131467 Just a few notes on the previous answer. For teleportation with photons the joint measurement on Q (the photon with the state to be teleported) and A (the member of the entangled pair held by Alice) is typically done with a simple beamsplitter followed by detectors. The has probabilistic outcomes which essentially means that it will not always provide a conclusive result that will allow Alice to tell Bob, which transformation to make. Since the detection destroys the photons there is also no way to repeat the measurement. Bottom line is that with the simplest setup the teleportation only succe

Sep 28, 2016 at 3:46 comment added Craig Gidney @user982438 Na, quantum teleportation requires the yelling. You're probably thinking of Bell test experiments. But even those don't require faster-than-light effects. Bell tests require something weird, but there's lots of possible weird to choose from.
Sep 28, 2016 at 3:42 comment added Ksec I thought the point of Quantum was there is no yelling, and they magically change their state in Spooky action, am I missing something ?
