Anton Zeilinger
Anton Zeilinger (born on 20 May 1945 in Ried im Innkreis) is a professor at the University of Vienna, previously Innsbruck. Zeilinger is known for multiple experiments in the realm of quantum interferomerty, the most famous being the demonstration of quantum teleportation. His work influenced the experimental progress in a new sub-field of physics - quantum information theory. Also many theoretical works on the foundations of quantum mechanics - the most influential one showed a dramatic amplification of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, once one considers three, not just two entangled particles.
