Physicists have long-suspected that the building blocks of protons experienced quantum entanglement. Now, researchers have the first direct evidence — after using a trick to infer subatomic particles' ...

"With evidence that quarks and gluons are entangled, this picture has changed. We have a much more complicated, dynamic ...

"Even then people were thinking about Star Trek. But we are talking about sending the state of a single particle, not the billions of billions of billions of particles that form a person," he says.

A single particle does not have the properties of the material it is part of. The properties of a substance are the properties of a huge number of particles together.
