Scientists Made the Kind of Quantum Physics Leap That Einstein Would’ve Loved

The rise of artificial intelligence has reshaped the way we all work—and that includes quantum physicists.
In a new paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, scientists from Nanjing University in China and the Max Planck Institute in Germany detail how they stumbled across a simpler method for achieving quantum entanglement—that strange quantum mechanical quirk Albert Einstein once poetically referred to as “spooky action at distance.” Seemingly connecting particles (even across vast distances) so that one cannot be independently described without the other, quantum entanglement forms “the basis for research on the foundations of quantum mechanics and for practical applications such as quantum networks,” the authors wrote.
