This would enable the creation of quantum-correlated spin states over macroscopic distance, an as yet unexplored version of Schrödinger's cat.

He imagined a box containing a radioactive atom, a vial of poison and a cat. Governed by quantum rules, the radioactive atom can either decay or not at any given moment. There’s no telling when ...

In the world of quantum physics, another record appears to have just been broken. In a paper listed on the preprint site ArXiv, researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China ...

A team led by Prof. Lu Zhengtian and Researcher Xia Tian from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) ...

In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment that illustrates a paradox of quantum superposition. In the thought experiment, a hypothetical cat may be considered simultaneously both ...

Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. It illustrates what he saw as the problem of the Copenhagen ...

A quantum bit inspired by Schrödinger’s cat has managed to resist making errors for an unusually long time in a quantum computing experiment. This may make it a promising building block for ...

Ah! how cheerfully we consign ourselves to perdition!” - Moby Dick Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment in quantum mechanics that demonstrates a paradox of quantum superposition. Quantum ...

On Nov. 29, 1947, the United Nations voted for the partition of Palestine and the creation of the independent Jewish state of ...
