Rowan Cheung on Instagram: "Google’s Willow quantum chip has achieved the first verifiable quantum advantage, running an algorithm 13,000 times faster than the world’s best supercomputers. The Quantum Echoes algorithm measures molecular structures by sending signals through quantum bits, then reversing them to detect amplified echoes. This breakthrough enhances nuclear magnetic resonance technology, revealing atomic positions in molecules with unprecedented precision. In tests, Willow analyzed m

Quantum Computing & Tech ⚛️ on Instagram: "Sean Carroll demonstrates just how deeply strange quantum reality is—using a single photon. In a lab in Geneva, a photon is fired at a partially silvered mirror. According to quantum mechanics, it doesn’t choose a path. It both reflects and passes through at the same time, existing in a superposition of outcomes. Detectors on each path then register the result, creating two distinct physical possibilities. Until a measurement is made, neither outcome is

Quantum Computing & Tech ⚛️ on Instagram: "The double-slit experiment is a key demonstration in quantum physics that reveals the strange behavior of particles like electrons and photons. In the experiment, particles are fired at a barrier with two slits, and a screen records where they land. If both slits are open and no measurement is made, the particles form an interference pattern, like waves overlapping, even when sent one at a time. This suggests that each particle passes through both slits

Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon where two or more particles become linked, sharing the same fate regardless of the distance separating them. #quantumphysics #quantumentanglement #commensense #reality #usa
