in Physics & Chemistry
NIST physicists have demonstrated entanglement--a phenomenon peculiar to the atomic-scale quantum world--in a mechanical system similar to those in the macroscopic world. The work extends the boundaries of the arena where quantum behavior can be observed and shows how laboratory technology might be used to build a functional quantum computer.
