摘要
The problem of the experimental determination of the amount of entanglement of a bipartite pure state is addressed. We show that measuring a Single observable does nor suffice to determine the entanglement of a given unknown pure state of two particles. Possible minimal local measuring strategies are discussed, and a comparison is made on the basis of their best achievable precision.
