This is a fundamental property of quantum computing.
But this kind of quantum function usually only occurs with particle-sized objects.
There is, however, some debate as to the significance of the teams efforts.
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
The tardigrade itself is shown to be entangled with the remaining subsystems.
Putting a speck of dust next to the qubit would have a similar effect.
For now, lets talk about the experiment itself.
The nightmare before Christmas
Tardigrades are among the most resilient creatures we know of.
Its for this reason the scientists chose to attempt integrating them with quantum bits in a circuit.
The ideas pretty basic.
The team was able to revive one of the tardigrades that were successfully involved in what theyre calling entanglement.
Rest in power little science bears, well never forget you.
