Can entangled particles communicate faster than light?
Illustration depicting quantum entanglement between particles. Credit: ATLAS Experiment Entanglement is perhaps one of the most confusing aspects of quantum mechanics. On its surface, entanglement allows particles to communicate over…
Physicists measure quantum geometry for first time
Schematics of the spin-resolved CD-ARPES set-up. Credit: Nature Physics (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41567-024-02678-8 The MIT team solved the problem using a technique called angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, or ARPES. Comin, Kang, and…
Scientists observe ‘negative time’ in quantum experiments
Experimental physicist Daniela Angulo poses with an apparatus in the physics lab at the University of Toronto. Scientists have long known that light can sometimes appear to exit a material…
