Researchers at the University of Oxford have demonstrated a new type of quantum interaction using a single trapped ion. By creating and controlling increasingly complex forms of “squeezing” – including a fourth-order effect known as quadsqueezing – the team has, for the first time, made previously unreachable quantum effects experimentally accessible.Quantum Physics NewsRead More

We can imagine that his wife, Penelope, would have asked him about that particular time. Odysseus might have replied, “It was nothing.
