You are talking about entanglement.

I understand that this was recently used to perform the first successful teleportation of matter. Is this the same principle?

Re: quantum entanglement

I think so.

As I recall it depends on particle in the same quantum state being indistinguishable. The quantum states are "teleported" so the particles are. I don't have time to read over it now and don't remember clearly.

Yep, that sounds right. Thanks Ned!
