The quantum mechanics of black holes

  • 9 תגובות
A black hole is a mysterious celestial body. Einstein's theory of relativity taught us a lot about black holes, but many question marks remain about what goes on inside. It is likely that the picture will become clearer as soon as a quantum theory of gravity is discovered, but until then we will content ourselves with the collision of quantum mechanics and general relativity around the event horizon. In this chapter we will discuss the paradox that arose from this collision, the multitude of published solutions and the fascinating developments of the past two years

A shadow of truth: thanks to a groundbreaking study published in Science - quantum entanglement emerges from the shadows

The researchers were able to directly observe the entangled quantum state of two mechanical drums, each with a size close to the diameter of a human hair.

The journal Nature reported yesterday (Thursday) that scientists have developed a new type of ion trapping technology that is the basis of a qubit - the storage unit in a quantum computer, which uses microwave radiation to perform calculations instead of lasers. This technology may simplify the development of large-scale quantum computers
