Physicists developed simplified formulas to quantify quantum entanglement in strongly correlated electron systems. Their approach was applied to nanoscale materials, revealing unexpected quantum ...

Once described by Einstein as "spooky action at a distance," quantum entanglement may now seem less intimidating in light of new research findings. Osaka Metropolitan University physicists have ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Quantum entanglement sensors in a space-based platform could provide experimental data to test quantum gravity by measuring deviations from the Equivalence ...

A Global Collaboration "The experimental detection of the quantum tornado is a testament to ct.qmat's team spirit," says Matthias Vojta, Professor of Theoretical Solid-State Physics at TU Dresden ...

and by introducing more quantum ideas entirely at odds with classical physics. The ‘quantum of action’ introduced by Planck (now known as Planck’s constant, h, whose ‘reduced’ form when ...
