Quantum Entanglement of Macroscopic Diamonds
New submitter ananyo writes "A pair of diamond crystals has been linked by quantum entanglement — one of the first times that objects visible to the naked eye have been placed in a connected quantum state. 'This means that a vibration in the crystals could not be meaningfully assigned to one or other of them: both crystals were simultaneously vibrating and not vibrating (abstract). Quantum entanglement — interdependence of quantum states between particles not in physical contact — has been well established between quantum particles such as atoms at ultra-cold temperatures. But like most quantum effects, it doesn't tend to survive either at room temperature or in objects large enough to see with the naked eye.'"
this both gives me the chills, and doesn't.
great..... we dump all this money in some eggheads' laps, and all they can think of is to make fancy adult toys
Actually, no, because they are quantum entangled only one of them can vibrate at a time. So you can still only please one at at a time, you just don't know which one it will be until they tell you.
