Researchers uncover link between quantum information theory and particle and condensed matter physics
Theoretical physicists have established a close connection between the two rapidly developing fields in theoretical physics, quantum information theory and non-invertible symmetries in particle and condensed matter theories, after proving that any non-invertible symmetry operation in theoretical physics is a quantum operation. The study was published in Physical Review Letters as an Editors’ Suggestion on
An unexpected delay in a standard quantum optical process generates pairs of photons
Since it was first demonstrated in the 1960s, spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) has been at the center of many quantum optics experiments that test the fundamental laws of physics in quantum mechanics, and in applications like quantum simulation, quantum cryptography, and quantum metrology.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
Physicists propose new approach that could unlock barriers to global scale quantum network
Interference (excess noise) to quantum signals from sunlight has slowed down the creation of a global scale quantum communications network, but now physicists at Heriot-Watt University have proposed a way to tackle this “daylight noise”‘ issue, paving the way for all-day satellite transmission.Quantum Physics NewsRead More
