- The Quantum Experiment That Breaks Time
The article explores a theoretical quantum experiment combining quantum mechanics and relativity, imagining a 'quantum twin' sent across the galaxy to investigate the quantum nature of time. It references Schrödinger's cat and the twin paradox to question whether one could exist in multiple temporal states simultaneously.
- Scientists discover atoms suddenly spinning backward in quantum experiment
Scientists observed angular momentum transfer in a quantum material for the first time, discovering that atomic rotations can unexpectedly reverse direction due to the crystal's symmetry. The experiment used ultra-powerful terahertz laser pulses to trigger and monitor these rotations.
