An international team of physicists has studied how particles are produced in high-energy electron–proton collisions through the lens of entanglement entropy Entanglement entropy has emerged as a new ...

During a deeply inelastic collision with a proton, a relativistic electron (highlighted in blue) can emit a high-energy photon (purple here) that penetrates interior of the proton, where it ‘sees’ ...

Once described by Einstein as “spooky action at a distance,” quantum entanglement may now seem less intimidating in light of new research findings. Osaka Metropolitan University physicists have ...

Physicists have shown that particles produced in collimated sprays called jets retain information about their origins in subatomic particle smashups. Physicists at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE ...

A recent study has unraveled some of the secrets concealed within the entangled web of quantum systems. In the intricate world of quantum physics, where particles interact in ways that seem to defy ...

Physicists have spent a century trying to reconcile the smooth fabric of spacetime in general relativity with the jittery quantum fields that govern particles, and gravity has stubbornly resisted ...
