How do we normalize the new state after measuring a specific outcome in a two-qubit system?
After measuring a specific outcome in a two-qubit system, it is necessary to normalize the new state in order to ensure that the probabilities of all possible outcomes add up to one. This process, known as state normalization, is important for maintaining the integrity of quantum information and preserving the principles of quantum mechanics. To
