A Controlled Not variant of the standard quantum teleportation protocol affords a step-by-step analysis of what is, or can be said to be, achieved in the process in either location. Dominant interpretations of what quantum teleportation consists in and implies are reviewed in this light. Being mindful of the statistical significance of the terms and operations involved, as well as awareness of classical analogies, can help sort out what is specifically quantum-mechanical, and what is not, in so-called teleportation. What the latter achieves appears to be the transmission, without the involvement of mysterious channels, of what a quantum state encapsulates: the multitiered probabilistic characterization of a given preparation, which might be all we can possibly know about a physical system in a given experimental situation.

标准量子隐形传态协议的“受控非”变体提供了在任一位置的过程中实现的或可以说实现的逐步分析。鉴于此，对量子隐形传态包含和暗示的主要解释进行了综述。牢记所涉及的术语和运算的统计意义以及对经典类比的认识，可以帮助您理清具体的量子力学，而所谓的隐形传态则不是。后者所实现的似乎是量子态所封装的，没有神秘通道参与的传递：给定制剂的多层概率表征，这可能是我们在给定实验情况下可能知道的关于物理系统的全部信息。
