An intuitive illustration of our theorem. Assume the state we consider has dimension d and is coupled with an environment with dimension k. We use three balls to represent the states, whereas the outer one contains all the states.Quantum entanglementQuantum entanglement is a process through which 2 particles become entangled and remain linked...
In Borromean rings, each circle holds the pattern together by passing through the other two circles. Credit: Alexandr Kakinen / Aalto UniversityResearchers have demonstrated how three vortices can be linked to prevent them from being dismantled. The structure of the links resembles a pattern used by Vikings and other old cultures. However, this research...
Entangled drumheads. Credit: Aalto UniversityNew researches expand the boundaries of physics, reaching quantum entanglement in larger systems. Perhaps, even getting around the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.Recently released research pushes the boundaries of crucial concepts in quantum mechanics. Studies from 2 various groups utilized little drums to demonstrate that quantum entanglement. This is an effect generally...
Researchers at Princeton found that a material known as a topological insulator, made from the elements bismuth and bromine, exhibit specialized quantum behaviors normally seen only under extreme experimental conditions of high pressures and temperatures near absolute zero.

Illustration of the experiment. Credit: Dreyer et al, Nature Communications (CC-BY-SA 4.0)Strong alternating magnetic fields can be utilized to generate a new kind of spin wave that was previously just theoretically anticipated. A team of physicists from Martin Luther College Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) achieved this for the first time. They report on their work in...
An artist’s conception of the complex magnetic correlations physicists have observed with a groundbreaking quantum simulator at Kyoto University that uses ytterbium atoms about 3 billion times colder than deep space. Different colors represent the six possible spin states of each atom. The simulator uses up to 300,000 atoms, allowing physicists to directly observe...
Scientists have developed a heat pump that uses light particles on a quantum range. Scientists can currently measure radio frequency signals closer to the quantum limit. Professionals say this technique works in searching for dark matter, a component of the universe whose existence is discernible primarily by its gravitational attraction. 30.1 percent of the...
