Problem

Determine which of the results of Alice's Bell-state measurement yields a state for Bob's particle that is rotated into the state ∣ψ⟩|\psi\rangle by the operator R^(πk)\hat{R}(\pi\mathbf{k}). If you have worked out Problem 5.14, you can simply verify that the remaining state for Bob's particle is indeed rotated into the state ∣ψ⟩|\psi\rangle by a 180°180° rotation about the zz axis.
