Thursday, December 3, 2015 - 09:01 in Physics & Chemistry

(Phys.org)—A team of researchers at Harvard University has developed a way to measure entanglement entropy in many-body systems. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the team describes the technique they used and why they believe their findings have set the stage for using entanglement to conduct future studies of many-body systems. Steven Rolston with the University of Maryland offers a News & Views piece on the research done by the team and explains why such work is important in understanding non-equilibrium systems.
