In this thesis I address the fundamental question that how the information
gain is possible in the realm of quantum mechanics where a single measurement
alters the state of the system. I study an ensemble of particles in some unknown (but product) state in detail and suggest an optimal way of gaining the maximum information and also quantify the corresponding information exactly. We find a rather novel result which is quite different from other well-known definitions of the information gain in quantum theory.
