Quantum Teleportation: From Qubits to Energy on Superconducting Hardware — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Quantum teleportation transfers state (information), not matter or energy; recent work extends protocol to energy teleportation on superconducting hardware. MATH: Core protocol uses Bell-state measurement, two classical bits, and a shared entangled pair — unitary operation \(U \in \{I, X, Z, XZ\}\) applied conditionally. Fidelity \(F = |\langle \psi_{\text{in}} | \psi_{\text{out}} \rangle|^2\) approaches 1 in ideal case; distance record 1,400 km via satellite (Micius) — no new fundamental constant, but scaling law for entanglement distribution: \(P_{\text{success}} \propto e^{-\alpha L}\) (attenuation), overcome by free-space channel. Energy teleportation (arXiv:2301.02666) uses local operations and classical communication (LOCC) with negative energy density extracted from vacuum — quantified by conditional mutual information \(I(A:C|B)\) and energy bound \(\langle E \rangle \geq - \frac{1}{\beta} I(A:C|B)\) (thermodynamic cost).
