Quantum entanglement is mysterious. There is no communication, no collusion across vast distances. States are also not pre-programmed, like Christmas lights. The paradox disappears though if you accept that rather than being separate things, mysteriously doing a co-ordinated dance, there is in fact just one thing, being itself. It may be a bit like a lighthouse seen in a mirror. Seen in one way, it is here. Seen in another way, it is a thousand light years away. Its spin may appear flipped but there is no 'entanglement' and no need of a theory of entanglement. Am I being daft and simplistic? #quantumentanglement #quantumphysics #astrophysics

Diraq and Equinix plan to install an eight-qubit silicon quantum computer in a Sydney commercial data centre in October. The trial will test remote operation and infrastructure integration, but the tiny processor cannot perform useful fault-tolerant computing and has not been installed yet.

From the vast universe to the smallest particles, everything exists in connected layers. Galaxies form star systems. Stars create the elements that build planets. Planets support life. Cells form tissues, organs and human beings. At the smallest scale, atoms, quarks and other particles shape the matter around us. This visual is a reminder that we are not separate from the universe—we are part of the same structure. The more we explore, the more we understand how much remains undiscovered. #Universe #Science #Astronomy #Biology #QuantumPhysics #SystemsThinking #Learning

Two research teams have demonstrated complementary advances in silicon quantum computing: one integrated digital control electronics with an 18-qubit processor, while another moved electron spins to perform demanding error checks. Both tackle real scaling problems, but the machines remain small experimental prototypes.

⏪ Physicists designed a way to make a quantum system's arrow of time point backward. Not time travel. Something weirder and more useful. Every time you measure a quantum system, the measurement kicks it and pumps energy in. A Los Alamos-led team built feedback protocols that can cancel, amplify, or flip that kick. Run it one way and you recover all the energy the measurement added. Run it harder and the system behaves as if time is flowing in reverse. It's basically a working Maxwell's demon, pulling usable energy out of the act of observing. The catch: it's still theory, published in Physical Review X in February, and real measurements today only catch about half the signal, so the perfect version needs better detectors first. Next up: testing it on superconducting qubits, where it could chip away at decoherence, the thing that keeps breaking quantum computers.

I keep underestimating the demand for my Feynman Diagram Bauhaus print, so I made another edition! This linocut was inspired by the way the exuberant lines and shapes of Bauhaus paintings, like those of Wassily Kandinsky, reminded me Feynman diagrams showing particle reactions on the quantum scale, virtual particles and anti-particles popping out of the vacuum on borrowed mass-energy and of quantum foam. 🧵 https://minouette.etsy.com/listing/1143490034 #linocut #printmaking #quantumPhysics #sciart #Bauhaus

"“Coincidence in one of America’s most secretive labs,” the account wrote. “Or are these the latest casualties in a shadow battle over exotic technology and disclosure?”" What's wrong with a good old fashioned "Science experiment gone wrong" guys, why does it always have to be some semi-religious battle between Good and Evil? https://futurism.com/future-society/man-vanishes-experiments-quantum-physics #AnthonyChavez #LosAlamosNationalLaboratory #QuantumPhysics
