 <content>\section{Quantum circuit simulation}
The following is an imaginary experiment or simulation of a quantum circuit
avalaible as a free download from \PMlinkexternal{$Mathematica^{(TM)}$ website}{http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/GeneratingEntangledQubits/}. The link shows 
how a `quantum circuit' of the selected design might perform a Hadamard operation followed by a simple CNOT operation with two qubits thus yielding an
entangled qubit (or \PMlinkexternal{E.P.R}{http://planetphysics.org/?op=getobj&amp;from=lec&amp;id=119}) pair which is one the four Bell basis states (cf.
Brad Rubin, the author of this simulation).

 Such quantum circuits represent hypothetical possibilites for building a quantum `computer' that would handle qubits of information instead of the
regular bits in the existing, Boolean logic computers.</content>
