But what exactly is quantum entanglement? Two particles in quantum mechanics are said to be entangled when one of the particles cannot be perfectly described without including all of the information about the other one: the particles are “connected” in such a way that

I am a Ph.D. physics student, and my studies focus on various aspects of quantum photonics such as ghost imaging (where we image an object by only measuring light which does not interact with the object), improving the efficiency of entanglement generation in light, as well as using photons to generate random numbers.
