Remember the famous Schrödinger’s cat that’s both alive and dead until you look? Schroedinger used the analogy to demonstrate the limitations of quantum mechanics: an object has the potential to occupy multiple different states at a given moment, while its actual state remains unknown. Very small objects, such as photons or electrons, exhibit this behavior. This phenomenon is called Superposition. A research team at the University of Science and Technology of China has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in quantum physics by sustaining atoms in a state of quantum superposition for 23 minutes—breaking records in quantum physics. If confirmed, it could pave the way for advancements in detecting magnetic forces, exploring new phenomena in physics, and developing extremely stable quantum computer memory. #quantum #quantumphysics #quantumcomputing #schrodingerscat

Quantum superposition is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics that describes a situation in which a quantum system can exist in multiple states at the same time. In classical physics, objects are usually in one state or another, but in the quantum world, particles like electrons, atoms, or photons can exist in a combination of multiple states simultaneously. The concept of superposition is often illustrated using the famous thought experiment known as Schrödinger's cat. In this scenario, a cat inside a sealed box is both alive and dead at the same time until someone opens the box and observes the cat, causing the system to collapse into one of the two possible states. The phenomenon of superposition is a key aspect of quantum computers, where qubits can exist in a superposition of states, enabling parallel computation for certain algorithms. Superposition also plays a role in other quantum phenomena, such as interference and entanglement. #quantumphysics #quantumcomputing #superpositions

This week, Assistant Professor Jean-Baptiste Béguin will give a Life in Quantum Seminar. His talk is titled "Controlling the dispersal of information with atom-nanophotonic crystals." Here is the abstract: Even in non-relativistic quantum systems, the speed at which information propagates is bounded and dependent on the localisation length of interactions between qubits. This aspect holds profound implications for various applications in quantum many-body physics, such as quantum simulation and the development of quantum memories involving atoms and photons. In this presentation, I will discuss our nascent progress in establishing a novel experimental platform designed to investigate strong atom-atom interactions mediated by light propagating in nano-photonic crystal waveguides. Leveraging a broad tunability of interactions, our research enables the exploration of dynamic control over Lieb-Robinson velocities, along with the effective suppression of spontaneous emission or undesired light scattering – two major challenges in quantum optics. We meet on Thursday March 21st at 3pm. It's in Auditorium M, and all are welcome. #seminar #lifeinquantum #quantumoptics

Time-Dependent Perturbations in Quantum Physics 🌟 Exploring Time-Dependent Perturbations In the fascinating world of quantum physics, systems often evolve under the influence of external forces that change with time. These time-dependent perturbations are crucial, especially in driving transitions between quantum states and in fields like spectroscopy and quantum optics. 📚 What does this mean? Imagine a quantum system in an initial state described by a wave function. When an external perturbation (like an oscillating electric or magnetic field) is applied, this wave function evolves based on the interaction between the system and the perturbation. This can lead to intriguing phenomena such as: Resonant transitions, where the energy states of the system shift. Nonlinear effects, revealing unexpected material properties. 🔍 Real-World Applications Quantum computing: Controlling qubits with precise time-dependent pulses. Laser physics: Studying electronic transitions under light pulses. Quantum chemistry: Understanding photochemical reactions at the atomic level. 💡 Why does this matter?
