• n  a quantum of electromagnetic radiation; an elementary particle that is its own antiparticle

• It's also the first time the powers of a photon, which is good at traveling over long distances, and an atom, which is prized for its ability to retain information, have been .
• The two-photon puzzle was nothing more than a matter of speculation until 1964, when an Irish theoretical physicist named John Stewart Bell restated the problem as a simple .
• Last year Gisin was able to teleport a photon over four miles.
