Samuel Leon Braunstein (born in Melbourne, 1961) is a professor in the Computer Science department at the University of York, UK. He heads a research group in non-standard computation, and has a particular interest in quantum information and quantum computation.

Braunstein has written or edited three books, and has published more than eighty papers. His most important work was on quantum teleportation, and published in a paper titled "Unconditional Quantum Teleportation". The paper has been cited more than five hundred times and has received significant coverage in both the scientific and mainstream press.

In February 2006, Braunstein made the news due to his involvement in the first successful demonstration of Quantum telecloning. [ [http://www.physorg.com/news10924.html Quantum telecloning: Captain Kirk's clone and the eavesdropper ] ]

Braunstein has an Erdős number of 3, having co-authored papers with Gilles Brassard and Simone Severini.

Education

He completed his PhD in 1988 at Caltech, under Carlton M. Caves with a thesis entitled: "Novel Quantum States and Measurements."
